Geolocation for PrestaShop: prices, currency and language by country

Your shop switches language, currency and price depending on the country it is opened from. New York in dollars, Zurich in francs, Madrid in euros: one shop, one tariff per market, and your rankings untouched. For PrestaShop 1.7.6 up to 9.x.

The same price everywhere is the best price nowhere

What one market pays without blinking, another will not even look at

With a single price you undercharge where people would pay more and overprice where they cannot follow. PrestaShop already stores a price for each currency; what it does not know is which currency each visitor walks in with. That is what this module sets: it detects the country, and with the currency comes that market’s tariff.

Every country, with its own currency and its own tariff

You set $99 for the United States, CHF 89 for Switzerland and €79 for the eurozone. Someone opening the shop from New York sees dollars from the home page, without touching a thing. Someone opening it from Madrid sees euros and never sees the other tariffs: their selector only offers the currencies you enabled for their country.

Prices are written where you already keep them: in PrestaShop’s specific price per currency. There is no second price table to maintain.

Main features

Country detected by IP

From the Cloudflare header or from MaxMind's GeoLite2 database on your own server. No paid services and no third-party calls on every visit.

One currency per country

Each rule sets the currency the visitor arrives in and which other currencies they may pick. Anything outside their rule is never even offered.

Automatic language

The visitor lands on the URL of their own language. If they were already heading to a language URL, that one is respected: it is what they asked for.

Built around SEO

Every language keeps its own indexable URL and crawlers stay out of the redirect: Google keeps seeing the page it has indexed.

Country, language and currency selector

Modal, dropdown, side drawer or compact button, in any of the fifteen positions of your theme. With a search box and country names written in their own language.

Multistore

Every shop in the installation keeps its own rules and its own exceptions, with nothing bleeding across.

Visitors see their country written the way they write it

Deutschland, España, Italia, Schweiz. Every country appears in its own language, which is how the people who live there recognise it. Underneath, the language and currency that belong to it, already selected; and a search box that understands both names, so typing “Germany” finds “Deutschland”.

How it works

Install it and it comes seeded

On install it reads the languages you have enabled and creates one rule for each with its matching currency, plus a fallback rule for the rest of the world. It works from minute one; you refine it from there.

Add the countries you care about

One row per country: language, entry currency and the currencies it may switch to. Drag them to set their order in the selector, or disable one without deleting it.

Price each market

On the product page, a specific price per currency. That is all: the module already makes sure every visitor arrives in the right one.

Country rules of the PrestaShop geolocation module: language, default currency and available currencies for each country

Geolocation that does not break your rankings

This is where most international shops come undone: serving different content on the same URL depending on who is asking. This module is built the other way round.

What it does

  • Every language keeps its own URL, and that is what gets indexed
  • It only redirects from the URL with no language prefix, never in a loop
  • Crawlers are excluded and get the page exactly as it is
  • For a crawler the currency follows the language of the URL: the Spanish page is always indexed in euros
What it never does
  • Switch a page's language halfway through rendering
  • Serve two different contents under the same address
  • Redirect someone who already asked for a specific language
  • Touch your URLs, your canonicals or your hreflang tags
Exceptions in the PrestaShop geolocation module: search engine bots and IP addresses excluded from the automatic redirect

The bot list ships ready — Google, Bing, Yandex, the usual SEO tools — and takes any other user agent or IP address: handy as well for letting your agency or your team browse the shop without being geolocated.

Cloudflare or MaxMind, your call

If your shop sits behind Cloudflare, the country already arrives in the header of every request: no lookups, no maintenance. If it does not, the module resolves it with MaxMind's GeoLite2 database installed on your own server. On automatic it uses the header when it arrives and the database when it does not.

The database, updated with one button

One button downloads the GeoLite2 database from a public mirror and installs it. If you would rather use your own, a free MaxMind account is enough to download it and upload it from the same screen. The panel shows the file size and date, and warns you when it has gone stale.

Check it before a customer does

Type an IP address from any country and the module tells you which country it detects, which rule applies, and the language and currency that visitor would arrive with. With shortcuts for known addresses in several countries.

What people use it for

Charging what each market pays

The United States, Switzerland or the Nordics take prices that would stall the sale elsewhere. A tariff per currency lets you raise them where you can, without touching the rest of the catalogue.

Charging in the currency people think in

A price in the customer’s own currency converts better than one converted on the fly: nothing to translate in your head, no exchange rate to distrust.

Multilingual shops

Visitors land straight in their language instead of on a home page they cannot read, and search engines still see a clean site with one URL per language.

Brands with distributors per region

Each country comes in with the currency and the terms of its region, and the other currencies never show up in the selector.

Frequently asked questions

Can you set different prices per country in PrestaShop?

Yes, with a specific price per currency on each product or combination. What PrestaShop will not do on its own is put the visitor into their country's currency: that is this module's job, and it is why the two together give you a price list per market.

How do I change the currency based on the visitor's country?

By creating a rule for that country with its currency. From then on anyone browsing from there sees the shop in that currency without touching anything, and the selector only offers the currencies you marked as available for their country.

Does geolocation hurt SEO?

It does when it is done badly: by changing the content of a URL depending on who asks. Here every language keeps its URL, search engines are excluded from the redirect, and for them the currency follows the language of the URL, so they always index the same page with the same prices.

Do I need a MaxMind account or a subscription?

No. You can download the GeoLite2 database with the module's button, no account required. And if your shop runs behind Cloudflare you need no database at all: the country arrives in the request header.

What if a visitor wants another language or currency?

They can pick one in the selector. Their choice is stored in a cookie — for as many days as you decide — and it overrides geolocation for as long as it lasts: whoever chooses, chooses.

Does it work on PrestaShop 8 and PrestaShop 9?

Yes. It is tested from PrestaShop 1.7.6 to 9.x, on PHP 7.1 to 8.4 and on multistore installations.

Do I have to modify my theme?

No. The selector hooks into one of PrestaShop's fifteen standard positions and you pick it in the settings. It overrides no theme template and no core file.

What happens if I uninstall the module?

The shop goes back to behaving as it did, and your rules, exceptions and settings stay stored in case you reinstall or move servers. They are only wiped if you press the button that does exactly that.
