How it sells itself

Show every visitor the right version of your store. Orbe is a Shopify geolocation app: it detects each shopper's geo location by IP and browser language, then recommends the right country, language, and local currency. A customizable geolocation app in different languages for Shopify Markets, Global-e, and expansion stores, built for country redirect.

AI translation and a language switcher, written straight into Shopify. Press one button: products, collections, pages, menus, policies and theme sections are translated with neural AI and written into Shopify, so your /fr/ and /de/ pages serve real content instead of a browser overlay. Brand and product names are protected, so they are never translated by mistake.

Key points
  • Customize your Geolocation Popup and Country Selector from the theme editor
  • Translate popup, use dynamic variables and set up advanced geolocation settings
  • Save user preferences and automatically geolocation redirect in future visits
  • Redirect while maintaining attribution parameters of your marketing campaigns
