WPML Multilingual CMS is a paid plan for adding multilingual features to a WooCommerce store. Use it with WPML Multilingual & Multicurrency for WooCommerce, which provides multi-currency utilities; the WPML plan provides multilingual features. The WPML Multilingual Agency plan is another supported option.

Translate products and the shopping flow

Translate simple, variable, grouped, and external products, as well as product categories and attributes. Translation also covers cart, checkout, and confirmation pages; customer reviews; emails to customers and administrators; URL slugs and endpoints; and theme or plugin strings.

WPML supports AI Translation through PTC (Private Translation Cloud) and machine translation through DeepL, Google Translate, and Microsoft Translator. If a theme or extension provides checkout text in localization documents, scan it under WPML → Theme and Plugins Localization, then manage the resulting strings under WPML → String Translation.

Set up localized SEO and store URLs

Multilingual SEO features include hreflang tags, localized sitemaps, and meta translation. Store URL bases can also be translated, including the product permalink, product category, product tag, and product attribute bases.

Configure currencies for each market

The WooCommerce integration can show prices in more than 200 currencies and add a currency switcher to product pages or widgets. Choose whether the switcher shows a currency name, symbol, or code, and display it as a list or dropdown with styling options and custom CSS.

Currencies can be selected by customer location or website language. Set exchange rates manually or connect an exchange-rate source for monthly, weekly, daily, or hourly updates. You can also set custom product prices and shipping rates in secondary currencies.

Manage payments, inventory, and extensions

Configure different payment methods for each currency and track inventory across languages from one dashboard. The integration is compatible with popular WooCommerce extensions, including Subscriptions, Product Add-ons, Product Bundles, Bookings, Composite Products, Tab Manager, and Table Rate Shipping.

Installation and setup

Install WPML Multilingual & Multicurrency for WooCommerce alongside either the WPML Multilingual CMS or WPML Multilingual Agency plan. Configure languages, currencies, exchange rates, and the currency switcher, then translate the products, store pages, URLs, emails, and other required content. Make sure the theme uses API calls to receive URLs instead of hard-coding them.
