Cart Drawer: Different Spend Tier Thresholds and Rewards Per Market
This article explains how to set different spend tier goals and rewards for different Shopify Markets, and how currency conversion works.
Before you start
Markets must exist in Shopify first. Essential Cart Drawer reads them from Shopify and can't create them.
- Go to Settings > Markets in Shopify admin.
- Create the market for the countries you want to target.
Set up spend tiers per market
- Open Spend tiers in the editor.
- In the market list, click the market. Use Search markets if the list is long.
- Under Settings, choose one of the two options:
| Option | What it does |
|---|---|
| Use [your default market] (default) market tiers | The market reuses your default market's goals and rewards. Money amounts are converted with Shopify Markets exchange rates |
| Use specific [market] settings | The market gets its own goals and rewards. They don't change when you edit the default market |
Each market row shows which option it uses. The toggle on a row turns the bar off for that market only.
Example: a separate goal for New Zealand
- Create New Zealand as a market in Shopify if it doesn't exist.
- In Spend tiers, click New Zealand.
- Choose Use specific New Zealand settings.
- Set the tiers. Enter the amounts in New Zealand dollars.
How currency conversion works
Each tier set (the default one, and every market with its own settings) has an Enable automatic currency conversion checkbox, under Text after completing full rewards bar.
| Checkbox | You enter amounts in | What customers see |
|---|---|---|
| On | Your store currency | The amounts converted to each customer's currency, using Shopify Markets exchange rates. This also works when one market pays in several currencies |
| Off | Default tiers: your default market's currency. Specific market settings: that market's currency | Default tiers are converted for other markets. Specific market settings show exactly the number you entered |
New tier sets start with the checkbox on. The tooltip next to it names your store currency.
Tip: want a round number like £40 in the UK instead of a converted £43.17? Use specific settings for that market, untick automatic conversion, and enter 40.
Limit free shipping to some markets
- Open the market that should get free shipping.
- Choose Use specific [market] settings.
- Add a Shipping discount tier and set its goal.
For a market without free shipping, give it specific settings and leave out the shipping tier. Or turn the bar off for that market.
What can't be set per market
| Feature | Per market |
|---|---|
| Spend tier goals and rewards | Yes |
| Announcement bar text | No. Only per language, through Translations |
| Upsell offers | Not per market directly. Use a Market sub-trigger to show an offer only in some markets. See Cart Upsells: Multiple Offers, Sub-triggers and Troubleshooting |
Limitations
- Spend tiers work by Shopify Market, not by state or region inside a country.
- Which regions a discount code works in is set in Shopify admin > Discounts, not in the app.
- The app can't hide the whole cart drawer by country. Market settings only affect spend tiers.
