Multicurrency Support

Aelia Currency Switcher for WooCommerce

Blaze Commerce Headless WooCommerce supports Aelia Currency Switcher for WooCommerce (opens in a new tab).

See our solution in action:

Plugins

  • Aelia Currency Switcher for WooCommerce - Version 5.1.6.240414
  • Aelia Foundation Classes for WooCommerce - Version 2.4.26.240414

How multi currency works

We send a document to the typesense site_info collection where the key is currencies and the value is whatever currencies we generated on the blaze commerce plugin. These comes from the mapped currencies from regional settings and Aelia Currency/Country Mappings. If you set and map a currency on Aelia Currency/Country Mapping but didn’t set on regional settings, then it won’t be pushed to typesense. The same goes for vice versa. The default currency is pushed to typesense by default

These currencies are being used on headless to generate the pages and it generates 1 page per currency per product. So if you have 5 currencies, then each product generates 5 pages for each currency. This will make sure we generate pages on nextjs with ISR.

We track the currency used by the aelia_cs_selected_currency and the current country by the currentCountry cookie. On the first site visit, we determine the currency by their country. This is fetched through nextjs’s middleware using the request object (request.geo.country) we then use this value to set the aelia_cs_selected_currency cookie. These cookie is carried over to the wordpress checkout which the aelia currency switcher looks for.

FAQs

How do I make a country to use another currency rather than use the default currency?

You can set this on Blaze Commerce > Regional Settings. Add the country to the region you want it to. In this example, If the visiting user is geolocated from canada, then it will use the US currency on first visit. If the visiting user is from France, then it will use whatever default currency you have on your site.

How to force customers to use the currency based on their shipping address?

On WooCommerce > Currency Switcher > Currency Selection. Look for the Force currency selection by customer country and select either you want to force through Billing or Shipping country.

Note that this doesn't affect headless. The effect only applies when users go to the checkout. Example scenario if I set to Shipping country, If I am from Australia and my default shipping country on my account/session is also Australia. I change the currency on headless to NZD, everything now when browsing is NZD. But if I go to the checkout page, my currency is changed back to AUD because my shipping country is Australia.

If you want to prevent this just disable the option.

Can I set a different default currency on headless instead of the default currency on my wp site?

Yes this is possible. Just go to WooCommerce > Currency Switcher > Geolocation and change the Default currency. After saving make sure to go to Blaze Commerce and sync the site info.
