Orbe allows you to connect all your regional stores—whether on Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento, WooCommerce, Amazon, or other technologies—into a single, unified shopping experience.
When customers visit any of your stores, they'll see the same geolocation popup and selectors with all available countries and languages, no matter where they land.
This way, your store feels like one global storefront, even if it runs across multiple platforms.
Orbe merges the country and language options from all your connected stores into a single, consistent selector and popup.
Your customers will always see the full list of markets you support, without knowing they're navigating between different stores behind the scenes.
You only need to subscribe to Orbe on one store (what we call your main store). All other connected stores can stay on the Free plan and are fully sponsored.
Before adding a store, make sure the Orbe app is installed on the Free plan in the store you want to connect.
To add a store:
In the store you want to connect, install Orbe on the Free plan.
In your main store, go to Connect stores.
Click Add store, select Shopify as the platform, and enter the store URL.
Go back to the connected store, open the Orbe app, and accept the connection.
If you don’t have access to install Orbe in a Shopify store (for example, in a distributor or franchise store), select "Other platform" (adding it as an ).
However, we only recommend this when there's no alternative. Installing Orbe on the Free plan is always preferred to ensure a fully synced and consistent experience.
If two or more connected stores target the same country, Orbe will detect the conflict and let you choose which store should be shown to users from that region.
We recommend keeping the setup clean: Each country should only be present in one store's Markets settings to avoid confusion. But if you need to mantain the same country in multiple stores then after that go to Orbe and fix the duplicates:
To connect an external store (Magento, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Amazon, etc.):
In your main store, go to Connect stores.
Click Add store, then select the platform.
Enter the store URL and click Save.
Assign all the countries this store will serve.
For each country, define the languages, currency, and whether the URL changes based on country or language.
This step is required. The store will remain in Pending status and won’t be added until everything is set.
(Optional) Enable Redirect with full path URL if the store you’re connecting uses the same URL structure. For example, if /products/example exists in both stores, this option will redirect the user to the exact same page instead of the homepage.
Click Save to finish.
The store will now appear in your geolocation popup and selector like any other Shopify store.
If the same country is assigned to both a Shopify store and an external store, Orbe will prioritize the external store.
If a customer uses the native selector from your theme to change their country or language:
It only displays the countries and languages available in the current store. It is not aware of the complete list of markets across all your stores.
The experience will feel disconnected when navigating between stores.
It will not update their preferences on Orbe, so the redirection logic may not behave as expected.
To make sure everything works as expected, use a selector built by Orbe: Overview
You need to use one of to give your customers access to all countries and languages across your connected stores.
Only show all available countries and languages, and sync with the popup and redirection logic.
Yes. Since the popup is a Shopify app embed, you must activate it manually in the theme editor of each live theme across your connected stores. You can follow to do it step by step.
Yes, but you'll need an Enterprise plan. and we'll help you upgrade.
