  2. In the Shopify Payments section, click Manage.
  3. In the Countries/regions section, click Add country/region.

  5. In the Multiple currencies section, enable the currencies that you want to support from the list of accepted currencies.
  6. Click Add country/region.

3. Set Customer Account

You can make customer accounts required, optional, or disable them altogether. Bear in mind that requiring customers to create accounts could reduce sales conversion.

To edit Your customer account settings:

  1. From Your Shopify admin, click Settings, then click Checkout.
  2. In the Customer accounts section, choose a customer account option:
    • Accounts are disabled.
      Customers won't have the option to create an account or log in; they'll have to manually enter their details at checkout, as the fields won't be pre-filled.
    • Accounts are optional - Choose this.
      Customers can choose to create an account, but it's not mandatory for checkout. If customers have an account and are logged in, their address fields will be pre-filled when they place an order.
    • Accounts are required.
      Customers must have an account and be logged in to place an order. This setting is useful if You're running a wholesale or members-only store, for example. Address fields are pre-filled when the customers place their order.
  3. Click Save changes to confirm Your change to customer account settings.
