Modified on Sat, 25 Jun, 2022 at 7:27 PM


When you’re running an eCommerce store with global availability, showing the prices to the audiences in their currency becomes important. People don’t want to convert the prices in their currency when they’re shopping to simply know how much a product is costing them. If they don’t find an option to directly see their prices in their currency, they’re likely to abandon your eCommerce store.

Well, the currency switcher application is a power app on Kwikcart that will save such situations for you.

What is a Currency Switcher?

Currency Switcher is an in-built application on Kwikcart to show prices in currencies based on the location of the visitors. You can either automatically change the currencies based on location or opt for a manual method where the application will show prices in the base currency as well as the currency of the location where the visitor is based.

Now, using this option will require particular settings. So let’s have a look at how to make those settings and use this amazing Currency Switcher app on Kwikcart.

Steps to Use Currency Switcher

You can get started with using the Currency Switcher app on your eCommerce store in just a few simple steps explained hereinbelow-

1. On the Kwikcart dashboard, click on “Apps.”



2. You’ll be redirected to a page showing many in-built applications. On this page, click on the “Configure” button below the “Currency Switcher” app option.
