Multilingual: Markets, languages & currencies

M:AI supports all languages and currencies. Depending on your plan, a different number of languages and currencies are included.


P.S. We describe the Premium plan unless otherwise specified.


Markets


A market is a country or a group of countries. Each market can have one or more languages. Each market has one default currency. There is one market by default, and its currency is the default currency in the system. Each market has one or more regions. Each region can have its own currency or use the currency of the parent market.


In Shopify and WooCommerce, currencies and regions are linked automatically. Actions with languages and currencies are blocked since they're automatically fetched from the e-commerce platform.

Markets > Languages


All the languages and currencies with a green background are ACTIVE:



One language is always the default, but the default language can be changed using the …-icon:



Set the sort order of languages


Languages can be drag-and-dropped into another sort order by using this icon with 6 dots - left-click, hold and drag to move:



Connect a language to a currency


By editing a language, you may set a fallback currency for that language. This will result in the fallback currency being automatically selected when that language is chosen in the storefront:



Search and find your region, i.e. “Sweden”, and the currency will automatically be filled in:



Markets > Currencies


One currency is always the default, but the default currency can be changed using the …-icon:



Set the sort order of currencies


Currencies can be drag-and-dropped in a different sort order by using this icon with 6 dots - left-click, hold, and drag to move:



Currency settings for each currency


Each currency has a lot of settings:


  • Thousand separator
    Usually a space “ “ to display the price 1000 as “1 000”
  • Decimal separator
    Usually a comma or dot “.” to display the price as “100.50”
  • Precision
    Number of decimal places
  • Symbol
    **** E.g. “$” for USD or “kr” for SEK


  • Symbol position
    Set “Before” for USD and “After” for SEK


  • Use space between currency sign
    Depending on currency
  • Hide decimals if decimal price is zero
    Displays the price “100” instead of “100.00” when the decimals are zero



VAT for each currency


By default, a 25% VAT is set as the default tax to add to all product prices if tax is included. It’s easy to change this setting at the top of the page.


For each currency, a different VAT setting can be applied by overriding the default VAT. When editing a currency, VAT (taxes) may also be included or excluded:



WooCommerce: Multi-currency plugin


We support the largest multilingual plugin for WooCommerce, called the "WordPress Multilingual Plugin (WPML)".


It's the only free multi-currency plugin that includes a lot of features:
