AX-BOX Commerce Multilingual is AX-BOX Commerce for companies that sell in several languages. The catalog, cart, checkout, orders, online payment and quotes work as in the single-language edition. On top of that, every product, category, page, block and menu exists in each language of the site under its own address, and the buyer goes through the whole purchase in their language.
- Languages: any number, from a list set in the configuration.
- Built for: exporters, manufacturers and stores that sell to several countries.
- In production: the WoodHomes catalog runs in English, Russian and Montenegrin with prices in three currencies: 1,092 indexable pages from 217 projects. The cart and checkout are not used there yet.
- Availability: on request; we set it up together with the launch of your store.
One Store, Every Language
- product titles, descriptions, attributes and SEO fields edited per language next to each other;
- the cart, checkout and the order page under the language prefix, for example
/de/cart; - items in the cart and at checkout shown in the language of the page;
- an order remembers the language it was placed in: the buyer returns from the payment page to the order in that language;
- quotes open in the client's language through the same link with a language prefix.
Prices for Every Market
Prices are kept in one store currency, and visitors can see them in their own: exchange rates load daily, and the currencies offered in the header are chosen in the admin panel. The cart, the order and the payment stay in the store currency, so the amounts never drift with the rate.
Multilingual SEO for the Catalog
- hreflang links between all language versions of products and categories, including x-default;
- a canonical address and a sitemap entry for each language version;
- product structured data and Open Graph tags in the language of the page;
- filter addresses that stay readable in every language.
Choosing Between the Editions
If the store has one language today but a second market is on the horizon, start with Multilingual: moving a working single-language store to Multilingual later is a content migration, which we carry out as a project. Everything else, from the license model to deployment and support, is the same for both editions; see AX-BOX Commerce.
