Can multiple currencies be offered?

Yes, Shopify supports multiple currencies, allowing merchants to display product prices and accept payments in different currencies. This is particularly beneficial for businesses selling internationally, as customers can shop and pay in their local currency, creating a more convenient and trustworthy shopping experience.

For merchants using Shopify Payments, multi-currency support is built in for eligible countries and can be managed through Shopify Markets. If Shopify Payments is not available, support for multiple currencies may depend on the payment gateway being used.
