Multi-Currency: Overview
Multi-currency allows you to offer customers the convenience of viewing prices and paying in their local currency. This means that customers can check out in a currency that is different from your main site currency.
For example, your site's main currency is US dollars. You've enabled Multi-currency to offer product prices in Euros as well. With this feature, a customer can complete their purchase and pay in Euros—not just view the prices in that currency.
Before you begin:
Currently, Multi-currency is available for eligible sites with Wix Payments, and for sites using PayPal or Stripe as a third-party provider. Multi-currency is available for Wix Stores, Wix Bookings, and Wix Donations.
Supported currencies and payment methods depend on the provider:
Only payment methods that support your customer's currency appear at checkout.
If a customer's local currency isn't supported or included in your currency converter, they will view prices and pay in your site's main currency at checkout.
For Wix Payments transactions with Multi-currency, fees are based on your country and selected payment method. For example, in the US, these include a processing fee based on the payment method used (2.9% + 0.30 USD for Credit/ Debit Cards, (excl. American Express)), a currency conversion fee (1%), and a cross-border fee (1.5%, if applicable). To view fees specific to your country, see Wix Payments fees by country. If you use PayPal or Stripe as a third-party provider, check the provider's terms for their associated fees.
Enhance the customer experience
Offering multiple currencies enhances the shopping experience for your customers. Displaying prices in their local currency helps them clearly understand costs, while allowing payment in their currency makes the checkout process more convenient and trustworthy.
