Multi-Currency Testing

Run price tests in different currencies

Intelligems allows Price Testing in any Shopify supported currency. Each currency that a store will be testing in will require its own test setup in the Intelligems app.

Prerequisites

• You are either:

  • Using Shopify Plus and have the Script Editor App installed

  • Using any Shopify plan and are able to use Shopify Cart Transform Functions. This typically requires being upgraded to Checkout Extensibility, and is not compatible with a few apps, such as subscription apps

• You are on the Intelligems Blue plan

• An Intelligems team member has enabled the Multi-Currency Testing feature for you. Reach out to support here if you are not sure if this feature has been enabled for you yet

• You must be familiar with and using Shopify Markets or Global-e for localization

• You are ready to upload prices to your desired market when you start, pause or end your price test

• You have a fixed price set in the desired currency for each variant you plan to test

Step 1: Set up test in the Intelligems app

Creating a multi-currency test is generally similar to any other Price Test, with a few key changes to note. If you are not familiar with setting up a Price Test, please see our article here.

Select a currency to test on the Modifications tab in the Price Test wizard

This option will not be available until an Intelligems team member has enabled the multi-currency setting for you.

Set your prices in the selected currency.

Control prices are not automatically converted to your selected currency, so be sure to verify that each cell displays the desired test price in the currency you will be testing in.

Quick filling test groups based on control prices is not available for multi-currency tests. While you'll see the Quick Fill option in the app, clicking on it will take you directly to the 'Fill by Upload' option.

Currency Targeting

Currency targeting is set to your selected test currency by default, and will not be editable directly in the targeting section.

Step 2: QA your Test

This will be generally the same as QAing any other Price Test. You can see our checklist for QAing a Price Test here. Please also keep the below in mind that your store's selected currency must match the test's currency.

Step 3: Starting a Test

Your prices need to be set to the highest-priced test group in order for the test to run properly. Before the test is started, we prompt you to download a price CSV that you'll in turn upload either to Shopify Markets or Global-e. We ensure that the correct prices are included in the downloaded CSV.

You cannot have a product in more than one experiment if the experiments are set to the same currency. If so, the test will not start.

Step 4: Pausing or Ending a Test

When pausing or ending a test, you'll be prompted to download a CSV with the prices that you want to roll out either while the test is paused, or permanently. You'll need to upload the file with the new prices either to Shopify Markets or Global-e.
