Regional Pricing (Coming Soon)

We’re excited to announce that regional pricing will be available in the near future (planned for Q2 2025). This feature will allow you to set different prices for different regions, making your products more accessible to a global audience. This will be an optional feature and it’s togglable.

Once implemented, you’ll be able to set prices for specific regions. For example:

  • A customer in the US might see a price of $5.00 USD
  • A customer in Germany might see a price of €3.00 EUR
  • A customer in Bangladesh might see a price of ৳100.00 BDT

This feature will help you optimize your pricing strategy for different markets and potentially increase your global sales.
