Checkout Spanish translation out of beta
We are glad to announce that the Spanish translation of our Checkout is out of beta.
Long ago we introduced translation capability to our Checkout. Displaying the checkout in the buyer’s local language significantly boosts the conversion rate. At that time we used AI to generate the following translations for the Checkout:
- Spanish
- German
- French
- Italian
- Dutch
But we marked the translations as “beta” as those were not proof-read or approved by professionals.
Now we have started to hire professional translators to finalize the translation and the first language to go through the process is Spanish.
Passing the language
parameter with an auto
value to the Checkout ensures that if your buyers are from Spanish-speaking regions, the Checkout will automatically load in Spanish. You can also pass static values like es
to the language
parameter. See here for an example. When the Checkout is loaded in a different language or when the language
parameter is present, we show a dropdown in the footer of the Checkout to change the language.
More information about it can be found in our documentation (search for “language”). Very soon we will finalize more languages. Please note that only the languages for the new phase2
Checkout are being worked upon. Just a reminder on August 4th, we will switch the phase2
Checkout as default. You can read more about it here.
