Shopify Markets & international selling
Sell across the EU from one Shopify store
For Shopify merchants selling from one country who want to open the rest of Europe, or further, without running a second store. We set up Shopify Markets so each country gets its own currency, language, domain or subfolder, payment methods and duties at checkout. Enibbana and Spoon both sell cross-border on stores we built.
Selected workAll case studies
Happy clients
The work is a fixed-price scope with updates at least every 48 hours. We configure each market, translate the storefront with Translate & Adapt, wire in local payment methods, and set duties and taxes to show at checkout. Before a market is switched on we check it as a shopper from that country would, from the collection page to the paid order.
Where one store is the wrong answer, for example a separate catalogue or separate fulfilment per region, we say so on the first call and scope expansion stores on Shopify Plus instead. The people from the first call do the work and stay to launch.
01What is included
What an international setup includes
- 01Shopify Markets configurationEach country or region set up as a market with its own currency, rounding rules, pricing adjustments and shipping zones, with your primary market left intact so the home country does not change on launch day.
- 02Local currencies and paymentsPrices shown and charged in the shopper’s currency through Shopify Payments, with local methods such as iDEAL, Bancontact or Klarna switched on where the market expects them.
- 03TranslationsStorefront, product content, metafields and checkout translated with Translate & Adapt, with your own translations imported where you have them. We check every template in each language for strings the app missed.
- 04Duties and taxes at checkoutDuties and import taxes calculated and shown at checkout for markets you ship to across a customs border, and VAT handled per market, so the price at checkout is the price the customer pays.
- 05Domains or subfoldersA local domain or a subfolder per market (yourstore.de or yourstore.com/de), with hreflang tags and redirects by shopper location set so Google indexes the right version in each country.
- 06Launch checks per marketBefore a market goes live we walk through the store as a shopper from that country, checking currency, translation, delivery estimate, duties and the payment method. Enibbana and Spoon sell cross-border on setups like this.

03How a project runs
Four steps, and you can see every one of them
- 01A 30-minute callWe look through your store before the call and come with questions about what is slowing it down, so the time goes on your store and not on a pitch.
- 02A written scope with a fixed priceWhat we will build, what it costs and when it starts, on one page. Most projects start within 3–5 business days of you saying yes.
- 03Build in the openA shared Slack channel, a staging store you can click through at any point, an update at least every 48 hours and a call every week.
- 04Launch, then stay closeWe launch, watch the first weeks of data and fix what the data says to fix. Most clients keep us on for the next thing.
