When selling globally, one of the key questions sellers often ask is: “Can I set different prices for different regions on Payhip?” Understanding how pricing works for international customers can help maximize sales and manage currency differences effectively.
Regional Pricing on Payhip
Payhip allows you to sell products to customers worldwide, but it does not natively offer region-specific pricing within a single product listing. Instead, the platform relies on PayPal and Stripe for currency conversion:
-
Your store has a primary currency in which prices are set.
-
International buyers see prices in their local currency automatically, based on current exchange rates.
-
Conversion is handled by PayPal or Stripe, so the final amount may vary slightly due to exchange rates.
This means you cannot manually set completely different prices for specific countries, but buyers see prices adapted to their local currency.
Workarounds for Region-Specific Pricing
Even though Payhip doesn’t have a built-in regional pricing feature, there are a few ways to offer different prices for different regions:
-
Create Separate Products – For example, create a product specifically for U.S. buyers, another for Europe, etc., and set custom prices.
-
Use Discount Codes – Offer location-based discounts by sharing codes with specific audiences.
-
Embedded Store Options – If embedding Payhip on your website, you could direct customers to regional product links with tailored pricing.
These approaches allow flexibility while still using Payhip’s standard payment processing.
Benefits of Understanding Regional Pricing
-
Transparency – Customers see accurate pricing in their currency.
-
Reduced Friction – International buyers are more likely to purchase when they understand the cost in their local currency.
-
Marketing Flexibility – You can run region-specific promotions using discount codes or separate product links.
-
Revenue Optimization – Allows you to adjust pricing strategies based on local market demand.
Tips for Global Sellers
-
Keep Track of Exchange Rates – Be aware of how conversions affect your earnings.
-
Communicate Clearly – Let buyers know that prices are displayed in their local currency.
-
Use Analytics – Monitor which regions bring the most sales to adjust marketing efforts.
-
Test Promotions – Use discount codes for region-specific promotions to increase conversion rates.
Conclusion
While Payhip doesn’t offer built-in region-specific pricing, you can still sell globally with accurate local currency conversions via PayPal and Stripe. Creative workarounds like separate products or discount codes can help you manage different pricing for different regions.
