The app is built and tested. The Shopify App Store listing is to follow Shopify's approval review: it is not in the Shopify App Store yet.

Translate your Shopify store without leaving Shopify's own language system

Translations are registered in Shopify itself, so they live inside your store. An optional theme embed covers text that Shopify's system cannot reach.

The app is built and tested. It is not in the Shopify App Store yet: the listing follows Shopify's approval review, so there is no install button today. Leave your email in the form further down and we will tell you once, when it is listed.

  • Requires Online Store 2.0 themes
  • From $8 per month

What you get

  • Stays inside Shopify

    Translations are written into your store, so shoppers still see them if our servers are down.

  • Static files for the embed

    The optional theme embed reads pre-built static files, not a live service.

  • Shopify's own language URLs

    Shopify keeps producing the language URLs, hreflang and sitemaps.

  • Language switcher block

    Built on Shopify's localization form, so it works without JavaScript.

  • Your edits are kept

    Entries that already have a current translation are skipped unless you choose to overwrite.

  • Search-friendly

    Product, collection, page and theme text is translated in one pass.

How it works

  1. Install and choose languages

    The app enables the languages you pick (publishing a language is opt-in because it makes its URLs public).

  2. Translate and sync

    Machine translation with your glossary. The app registers translations through Shopify's translation API. Existing translations are skipped unless you ask to overwrite them, so your own edits stay.

  3. Shoppers browse in their language

    Shopify serves the translated pages at its own language URLs. A switcher block built on Shopify's localization form works without JavaScript. The optional loader embed handles text that Shopify's system does not translate.

Install in minutes

  1. Install the app

    Add the app to your store from the Shopify App Store when the listing is approved. You approve the permissions and choose a monthly plan inside Shopify.

  2. Pick your languages

    Choose the languages to enable. Publishing a language is opt-in because it makes its URLs public.

  3. Add the switcher

    In the theme editor, add the language switcher block to your header or footer.

Coming next: The first step opens when Shopify approves the listing; until then the app is not in the Shopify App Store.

Good to know

  • The app is built and tested end to end against a simulated Shopify. The checks on a live development store are part of the App Store submission, and the listing follows Shopify's approval review, so the app is not in the Shopify App Store yet.
  • Checkout, customer accounts, order status pages and Shopify's notification emails are rendered by Shopify; our loader does not run there. They use Shopify's own languages.
  • Product tags cannot be translated through the API. A store can enable at most 20 languages.
  • URL handle (slug) translation is opt-in, because changing a handle later can break redirects.
  • Words that live hard-coded in a custom theme may not be reachable. Test your theme.
  • Pricing is monthly per store, in four tiers by number of languages (S: 1, M: up to 3, L: up to 6, XL: all languages); see the pricing page. Shopify bills the subscription and you can change plan or cancel inside the app.

Questions

Will this replace Shopify's own translation features?

No, it builds on them. Translations are written into Shopify's translation system, so they appear in the admin like any others and Shopify keeps producing the language URLs, hreflang and sitemaps.

Will it overwrite translations I wrote by hand?

Not by default. Entries that already have a current translation are skipped unless you choose to overwrite them.

What if your servers are down?

Translations written to Shopify live in your store, so shoppers still see them. The optional loader embed also uses static files. You just cannot edit or publish until we are back.

Can it translate checkout?

No. Shopify renders checkout and customer account pages and our loader does not run there. Use Shopify's own checkout languages for those.
