Shopify store expansion to new markets, localization, cloning

Localization allows you to customize a single Shopify store for multiple markets, using multilingualism, currencies, and Markets settings. Cloning is the creation of a separate, standalone store for another market (with separate administration, design, or rules).

If all markets have similar logic, currencies, and products, localization is enough.

We recommend cloning when the markets are very different: pricing, logistical solutions, content, or the need for localized SEO differ.

Yes. Shopify Markets allows you to configure currencies, taxes, shipping rates, and even payment methods for each market individually. We'll configure everything to your needs.

Yes, we can configure regional subdomains (e.g. eu.parduotuvė.com) or use the Shopify Markets structure with a single domain and automatic redirects by country and language.

We will help you choose the most appropriate solution based on your strategy.

We implement multilingual functionality and translation integration for your Shopify store. You can provide your own translations, use machine translation, or work with our recommended tools or translation partners.

We ensure that everything is correctly integrated and neatly presented in the store. If necessary, we create a store section tailored to specific markets.

Yes. Each individual Shopify store requires a separate account and plan. However, there is an option to use the Markets solution in a single account if you want to avoid additional costs - we will help you evaluate which option is best for you.

Yes. Using Geo IP settings and Shopify Markets, we can customize automatic language, currency, and market selection based on the visitor's location. We can also implement a market selection popup.

Pop-ups and language switching buttons can redirect a visitor to both a localized version of the store and an external store (clone) for another market.

Yes. We perform SEO localization on the Shopify store - adjusting meta tags, URL structure, hreflang tags, and technical elements so that each market version is properly indexed and visible in Google search.

Depending on the complexity and number of markets, simpler solutions can be implemented within 1-2 weeks, while more complex ones (with cloning, multiple markets, and specific content) can take 3-5 weeks.

Yes. We can get involved at any stage: from initial analysis to technical localization implementation. We also perform Shopify audits and prepare localization recommendations if you are just planning to expand.
