Using Shopify to develop cross border e-commerce

June 21, 2021

The past year has led the way to the future, with cross-border e-commerce exploding in growth. But is your shop set up for cross-border sales?

Cross-border e-commerce is an international business activity in which trading entities, belonging to different customs borders, conclude transactions through an e-commerce platform. Moreover, they settle payments electronically and deliver goods through cross-border e-commerce logistics and off-site warehousing to complete the transaction.

In fact, according to a recent Shopify survey, 35% of Shopify's traffic comes from international visitors, and a staggering 92% of those visitors want to browse for purchases in their currency and at their price.

If you run a Shopify shop, you can quickly take it from local to global. These are some aspects to consider:

Identifying your cross-border e-commerce target market
Quoting in the consumer's local currency
Controlling international pricing
Showing taxes
Setting up international shipping
Setting up cross-border payment methods
Use international domain names for specific markets
Translating your shop and online materials
Marketing and advertising
