Shopify Store Currency in Pakistan
The store currency is the money your prices, shipping rates, and reports use.
- Path
- Settings, then Store details
- Rupee code
- PKR
- When
- Before the first order
- Rates
- Shipping rates use this currency
- Shopify Payments
- Pakistan is not on that country list
Set it at the start
The store currency lives with the store address and the timezone. Shopify’s setup page lists those fields together. Pick PKR if the prices you type are rupees.
A price of 1999 in a store set to US dollars is 1999 dollars. The currency symbol follows the store currency, so set the currency before you type a catalog.
Changing it later
Shopify limits currency changes after you have orders, because old orders would be hard to read. Decide before the test order, not after a month of sales.
The test order comes after payments and shipping. Those steps are in Shopify Payments in Pakistan and How to Set Shopify Shipping Rates.
Multi-currency is a different switch
Shopify Payments can show prices in a customer’s local currency in some countries. That feature belongs to Shopify Payments. Pakistan is not on the Shopify Payments supported-country list, so that switch is not the way a Pakistan store prices its goods.
If you later sell to another country, you can still show one store currency and one shipping zone per region.
The TechnoSpike shop
The shop on this website prices goods in rupees and says the price includes tax. That checkout is separate from a Shopify store. A case such as the ones in Phone Cases uses the TechnoSpike shop, not Shopify Payments.
Copy the habit, not the platform: one currency, written on the price, decided before the first order.
Frequently asked questions

Shopify restricts that change once orders are in the store. Set PKR before the test order.
Does Shopify Payments multi-currency work in Pakistan?
Shopify Payments’ country list does not include Pakistan. Multi-currency on Shopify Payments is not the tool for this store.
Do shipping rates use the store currency?
Yes. A flat rate you type is in the store currency.
Is the TechnoSpike shop a Shopify store in PKR?
It is a separate checkout on techno-spike.com. Prices there are in rupees. A Shopify store has its own currency setting.
