# A free shipping threshold in each currency on Shopify

To set a free shipping threshold per currency, add **Cart total** **Is at least** 100 to a shipping discount, tick **Set fixed amounts per currency**, and add each currency with its own amount, such as GBP 75 and EUR 90. Shopify's own free shipping discount has no setting for fixed per-currency thresholds. [RM: Advanced Free Shipping](https://apps.shopify.com/better-free-shipping) uses your exact amount for each currency you list, and converts every other currency at Shopify's exchange rate. One discount covers every currency. The app is $9.90 USD every 30 days, with a 7-day free trial, billed by Shopify.

## What the customer gets

In this example a US store sets free shipping over $100 USD, with fixed amounts of GBP 75, EUR 90 and CAD 140. The UK Standard rate is £6.90.

- **Qualifies.** A UK shopper paying in pounds has an £80 cart. That's over £75, so Standard shows £6.90 crossed out and free. The shopper pays £80.
- **Doesn't qualify.** A UK shopper with a £70 cart. The shopper pays £70 + £6.90 = £76.90.
- **Doesn't qualify.** A Canadian shopper with a CAD 130 cart is under CAD 140, so the rate stays at full price.
- **Converts automatically.** A shopper paying in a currency you didn't list, such as Australian dollars, needs the equivalent of $100 USD at Shopify's rate on the day. At 1.50 AUD to the dollar, that's A$150.

## Set it up

1. In the app, click **Create Shipping Discount**.
2. Under **Discount method**, choose **Automatic discount**. New discounts start on **Discount code**, and the method can't be changed later. Enter a **Title** such as "Free shipping".
3. In **Conditions**, click **Add condition**. Choose **Cart total**, set **Is at least** and enter `100`. This amount is in your store currency.
4. Under the amount, tick **Set fixed amounts per currency**.
5. Click **Add currency**, choose GBP and enter `75`. Repeat for EUR `90` and CAD `140`.
6. In **Discount setup**, set **Delivery type** to **Shipping**, **Which rates** to **All shipping rates** and **Discount value** to **Free**.
7. Click **Create discount**.

The screenshot shows an Australian store: $100 AUD in its own currency, with USD 75 and GBP 60 set by hand. Every other currency converts automatically.

## Variations

- **Count the threshold before discount codes:** use **Cart subtotal** instead. It has the same **Set fixed amounts per currency** option.
- **A different threshold per country, not per currency:** use rule groups with **Shipping country**. See [free shipping by country](/guides/free-shipping-by-country.md).
- **A fixed price or amount off:** **Fixed Price** and **Fixed Amount Off** values are in your store currency and convert automatically for each shopper.
- **Free Standard only:** set **Which rates** to **Choose specific rates** and select Standard. Rate names are the same in every currency.

## Good to know

- **To see the option,** enable more than one currency in your store. **Set fixed amounts per currency** only appears when you sell in more than one. See Shopify's guide to [pricing in local currencies](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/international/pricing).
- **To avoid near misses,** use **Is at least**, not **Is equal to**. Converted amounts rarely land on an exact number.
- **To fix amounts for a collection threshold,** use **Cart total** or **Cart subtotal**. **Cost of items from collection** converts automatically but has no per-currency amounts.
- **To cap which rates go free,** **Exclude rates over a certain amount** also converts from your store currency.
- **To test a currency,** switch on **Test mode**, change the storefront currency, and use `ABC123` as the shipping first name. See [test a shipping discount](/guides/test-a-shipping-discount.md).
