To change your Shopify store's currency, follow these simple steps:
- Log in to your Shopify account.
- In the dashboard, click on "Settings" at the bottom left of the screen.

If you encounter difficulties finding a specific currency or need more complex currency conversion for your products, the Shopify Currency Converter Plus app can be helpful. It allows customers to see prices in their local currency, based on current exchange rates.
A store manager based in France wanted to ensure his international customers saw prices in US dollars, euros, and British pounds. He followed the steps above to initially set the euro as the main currency. Then, he used a currency conversion app so his customers could choose from different currencies. By implementing these changes, he noticed a 20% increase in international sales, as his customers found shopping simpler with prices displayed in their own currency. This demonstrated the importance of a personalized shopping experience for global success.
