June 15, 2016 - E-Commerce, Magento 2, Magento tips & tricks

Multiple currencies support is vital for international ecommerce businesses. Lacking this feature may result in decreased conversions for an online shop since you will lose money on accepting payments in the currencies other than your local currency.

To avoid such challenges, store owners should consider using store and currency switching tools for Magento.
