Thank you for the video, very helpful as a Shopify newbie
Glad you found it helpful.
very helpful, good work
Loved the video!
A question tho - how can you make a section not "customised for this market" and make it default for every market?
@@RanveerSingh-e4h you could add that to your default site so don't select any market from the dropdown and it will add to all markets
@@theindiecollab 🙏🙏
Wow. Very helpful right to the point. Thank you. Question please, which plan of shopify do you use? Because my basic plan on shopify is not showing that much detail? Also do you know if i can use shopify offered shipping methods instead of putting a flat rate for foreign country?
Shopify Markets is available on all plans, you will get 3 markets maximum included. As long as you are on a Shopify 2.0 theme you should see all options. For Shipping that will depend on if you have carrier-calculated rates and who your shipping provider is but, you can offer all the same options internationally as you would domestically. It doesn't have to be a flat rate.
i love u i legit not doing what you're doing but because you did this 1 step where u add each country my currency auto changes in a way without any apps w.
Great video thank you
Great job by the way 🙂
Thank you!
You are welcome.
great video
Thank you 😊
how to add a taxes and duties notification on Checkout page? Without Shopify Plus account
@@user-qr1hz5fs9r where are you located? In the US you should have access to Markets Pro and can activate this. You also need to be using a carrier like DHL that offers DDP (delivered duty paid)
Anyone knows what's the equivalent of the geolocation app now? Looks like it doesn't exist anymore...

Hi! thanks for the video :) My main market is Colombia and I want to sell in USA. I find de following problems: 1. In de products and pricing tab (USA Market) I am unable to select any currency other than Colombian peso and it shows this message: Shopify Payments is required to manage currency. The thing is, Shopify Payments is not available in Colombia. What should I do? 2. When trying to customize pages for the USA market, this message comes up: This Liquid template can only be customized in the Default context. Customization in other contexts is only available with JSON templates. Does this mean that my current theme (Minimal) is not compatible with Markets? Do I need to change it? if so, how do I know which themes are compatible? Thanks a lot in advance!
Unfortunately, you will need Shopify payments to use the multi-currency features however you can use a currency converter to display the prices in USD for US customers but when they go to checkout it will show peso not USD. The only way around this would be to set up the store/business under a different country or currency that supports Shopify payments. You could look into creating an LLC in the US as a non-resident and have your primary currency as USD and then have Colombian peso available for Colombian customers. Check out www.firstbase.io/ for more info on setting up the US business. For your other error it may be that you don't have markets setup because of your currency issue so can't use this feature or it could be the theme, I haven't come across that error so would need to dig into it to know more.
Thank yo so much for this amazing tutorial!! Wow sending love to you, what about the navigation menu, are they translated automatically or with the translate app or we can customize it based on the country ? Becase there is an option to add a section for different annoucement bar on each individual market, but the header apparently not
You’re welcome ☺️ yes the menu will also be translated. You can also change the menu that is linked for each Market by using the localization features and changing the menu in the header section.
Hello thanks for the video. In the video, you were able to set the rate in Australian dollars by selecting the currency from a dropdown menu. I am attempting to do the same, but I do not see the dropdown menu at my end.
Hi there, are you referring to the dropdown for your customers to select their currency? That would change depending on your theme - most have an option to turn on the currency selector. If not, you can add it using the geolocation app.
How do you manage stock levels in the different countries can the markets that have been created be locked to different collections or is there a way that you can manage it within the same product?
By default when one location sells out Shopify will try and fulfil the product from another location. To restrict a market to using stock from a specific location you’ll need an app like ‘Multi-location Inventory’. When you use the app you can specific which location to fulfil from based on location and when there’s 0 in that location it will say sold out for the country associated with it.
How about hreflang tags for every translated page?
Shopify inserts its own hreflang tags through {{ content_for_header }} in the theme.liquid file.
@@theindiecollab I see, does that mean every page will get a link to the translated page (with the hreflang tags)?
@@eardopes The content is translated within the same page, it doesn't create a new page but it will have a unique country and language-specific URL. Because the hreflang tag is applied at the theme liquid level it is added site-wide. There's a pretty good article on it here www.digitaldarts.com.au/hreflang-tags-shopify
@@theindiecollab That is very very helpful :) While reading, I was actually thinking that metafields might also be a solution for this. For example a metafield where you can add all urls and a reference in the code to the metafield.
On the shopify basic plan, can we sell internationally? I heard that on the basic plan, there’s only 3 countries minimum that we can sell to
Yes that’s correct, as of January Shopify introduced a max of 3 for Shopify basic. I suggest you combine countries if you need more than 3, for example if you’re selling to multiple countries in the EU, group them as Europe and add multiple domains so you’re only using one market.
How do we see what countries are under international ? So we don’t duplicate markets ?
International would be anywhere that’s not listed under another market and you have a shipping rate available for. When you click on International, you’ll see a section called shipping. When you click on that it shows you what countries you do or don’t have rates for.
You can’t duplicate markets
@@theindiecollab ok thanks
Hi Please can you kindly help? I am new to selling on Shopify, When I update the website under the default market, the Uk market version does not update. Actually I don’t want a different website for different country as my business is only for service in the Uk. Can you tell me how I can turn this feature off?
It’s very hard to tell without seeing your settings. If you update default it should update everywhere unless you specifically made a change on UK which you don’t need to do if that’s your only market. When you only have one market, all changes should only ever be done on the default. Feel free to contact me via the website link on my channel.
Hello, I wanted to ask what plan are you using in this particular video? is it shopify plus or the shopify basic?
Heya, this is Shopify basic.
That is not the basic setup. Its actually the advanced version for 389 USD/mo @@theindiecollab

Hi! Thanks for video 🎉
I would like to ask, if my main store currency is set to USD, but I want to sell to Australia, Canada and the UK, will the buyer check out in local currency or USD?
That is, in what currency will I receive money into my account?
Because there are many Shopify applications that simply change the price but the check out will be processed in USD
Hi there, you can only receive payouts in one currency unless you are on Shopify Advanced or Plus which allows two, so you'll receive your payout in USD but your customer will pay in their currency. There are currency exchange fees, see here help.shopify.com/en/manual/markets/pricing/exchange-rates
@@theindiecollab
Thanks a lot!
How do this work with job shipping?
You'll need to set the shipping up as usual, you'll either need to manually add rates for each region or use an integration if one is available with your carrier to calculate the rates at the cart.
Digital products markets setup?
The setup for physical and digital products would be the same
Thanks for this video. I have a question. I am in South Africa but want to sell primarily to people in the USA. I will be doing POD and my supplier is in China. When I sign up with Shopify, do I just say I am in the USA? Or what should I do? It seems like things in Shopify is complicated. Isn't it better to run a WordPress website?
Shopify is made for e-commerce and is much easier to use than Wordpress in my opinion. No need to code and infinite options with apps and build in ecom features.
To set up as a US account you’ll need a US bank account, social security number or EIN and address if you’re planning on selling with Stripe/Shopify payments. If you don’t have that set up in the US then you’ll need to create the account in your own country and then add US as a market.
As a non-resident you can set up a business in the US to get an EIN, bank account etc if you’re serious about selling in the US, search FirstBase.io for a service to help you set this up. I’m not an accountant so can’t advise on your best option here.
@@theindiecollab any ideas on payment gateways for a South African dropshipper looking to sell to the US market with a US supplier?
@@Summer-u2t it looks like Shopify Payments isn't available in SA yet so your best course of action is to set up the US business as a non-resident. It's very easy via First Base. Only stores with Shopify Payments as the primary gateway can process payments in a customer's local currency so you'll need it to allow customers to pay in USD. Holding USD and paying your dropshopper in USD is probably going to save conversion fees as well.
hello if i waint sell in italy, I select only a country Italy ? don't select all country european ?
If you are only selling in Italy and no other countries then you will not need to use Markets, you will just set up your account with Euros and an Italian address.
@@theindiecollab when you tell "adress" it's adress e-mail ? and last question please for translate you recommand deepl or chat gpt ?
@@thomasrdz693 no your physical or street address. For translation use the Shopify Translate and Adapt app.
@@theindiecollab Oh okay but i living in France, for selling in Italy I need to use Shopify Markets ?
Thanks you friend for your energy
@@thomasrdz693 are you also selling in France? Or just Italy?
I WNT TO SHIP TO EVERY COUNTRY hoW TO SHIP
You'll need to set up shipping zones for each country under Settings > Shipping
In Shopify markets, my main market is America and the language of my store is English, but I want to open to the Spanish market and use Spanish. When I want to edit the Spanish language in the Spanish market in the theme editing section, the system says to use a translation application. Although I use Shopify's own translation app, it doesn't allow it. I want to edit my store in the language of that market, how can I do that. Are you able to do this
I have been researching this absurd subject but I have not been able to reach a conclusion, do you have any information on this subject?
@@eyup6517 do you have the Translate and Adapt app installed? That will allow you to manually edit the translations
i have got the same issue, I can't modify the homepage while using spanish, in english i can customize different market without problem . Can you help for that one please ?
@@OlidevconsultingI can’t picture what’s going on here, can you book a free call with me so you can show me www.theindiecollab.com/pages/contact
@@theindiecollab Did they show you what the problem was? We got the same problem, we can just edit in 1 language and all the others are forced to use the adapt & translation app. :(
