Before your Begin: Currency Conversion through Shopify Markets
If your store uses Shopify Payments, and Shopify Markets, then instead of using our app's currency conversion, you should set up your currencies in your Shopify Markets settings whenever possible. We have a full guide on how you can set this up available here: How to setup Shopify Markets with Translate My Store (TMS, Shopify market enabled) – Hextom
For regions that do not have Shopify Payments available, or if your store does not use Shopify Payments, then you can continue to follow this guide to set up the currency conversion through our app.
It is possible to have some regions currencies converted through Shopify Markets + Shopify Payments, and for others to be converted through our app. Our app will let you know if the currency is managed through our app, or through Shopify markets on the Regions/Currencies page in our app, as shown below.
If all the currencies are "managed by Shopify" then you don't need to take any further action, and you can control all your currency conversion settings through your Shopify Markets settings.
