Shopify Markets: The Complete Guide to Global Expansion Without Multiple Stores
Scale your Shopify store globally with Markets. Learn setup, localization, SEO strategy, and how to deliver the right experience in every region.
You're paying for international traffic. But without the right geolocation setup, most of it goes to waste.
Visitors see the wrong country experience
The price looks right. At checkout, it changes. Trust drops. They don't come back.
Your SEO signals get lost in translation
Google crawls from the US. Automatic redirects can hide your localized content from search.
Ads send visitors into the wrong journey
You pay for local traffic, but visitors can end up in a different country experience.
When a visitor lands on your store, Orbe shows them the information that matters for their country. Everything they need to feel confident enough to buy.
Connect your expansion stores and let Orbe Geolocation redirect each visitor to the right one, with the correct language and currency.
Country and language selectors let visitors correct their own experience without leaving your store. No support tickets. No lost sales.
Your popup, your brand. Every visitor gets a welcome experience that feels like part of your store.

We understand, not everything is straight forward when it comes to geolocation. Hopefully you can find what you're looking for here.
Help centerOrbe connects with your Shopify Markets and detects where each visitor is. On their first visit, it shows them a popup recommending the right country experience for their location and browser language. If they accept, Orbe remembers their preference and redirects them automatically on every subsequent visit, with no popup needed.
For example: a visitor from France lands on your US store. Orbe shows them the popup and suggests the French experience. They confirm. From that point on, every time they visit, Orbe sends them straight to the French store, no interruptions.

Shopify's native geolocation covers the basics. Orbe goes further.
Most merchants set up the geolocation popup in under five minutes. From the Shopify Theme Editor, you can fully customize the style and adapt it to your brand.
Orbe applies automatic redirects from the second visit onwards, once the visitor has given consent. On the first visit, we always show a popup instead.
This is intentional. Automatic redirects on first visits can hurt your SEO: Google crawls from the US, and if visitors get redirected automatically, it may never index your localized content. They can also conflict with GDPR in the EU and CCPA in California, which require explicit consent before using location data for redirects.
Orbe handles both: consent on the first visit, automatic redirects from the second.
