The WooCommerce Multilingual plugin (officially renamed to WPML Multilingual & Multicurrency for WooCommerce as of late 2025/2026) is the bridge that allows you to run a fully localized e-commerce store.
This is EXACTLY the same product as distributed by the developer. Sales Page Documentation
To run the latest version (v5.5+), your server and WordPress installation should meet these minimums:
WordPress: 6.0 or higher.
WooCommerce: 3.9.0 or higher.
PHP: 7.4 or higher (8.1+ recommended for performance).
MySQL: 5.6 or higher (or MariaDB 10.3+).
Memory Limit: 256MB minimum (512MB highly recommended for large catalogs).
The plugin operates in two modes: Standalone (Free) for multicurrency features and Multilingual (requires WPML CMS/Agency) for full translation.
| Feature | Specification |
| Product Translation | Supports Simple, Variable, Grouped, and External products. Translates titles, descriptions, and custom attributes. |
| Multi-Currency | Supports 200+ currencies. Includes a front-end currency switcher (dropdown, list, or flags). |
| Pricing Logic | Option for Automatic Exchange Rates (updated hourly/daily) or Manual Fixed Prices per currency. |
| Geo-Location | Automatically displays the local currency based on the customer’s IP address. |
| Cart & Checkout | Synchronizes carts across languages so users don’t lose items when switching. Fully translates the checkout flow. |
| Inventory | Centralized tracking; stock levels are synchronized across all language versions of a product. |
