Languages

Checkout and Hello are translated into 20 languages, and by default a shopper can switch between all of them. If your business only sells into certain markets, or you need to avoid implying that you sell into a market you don't, you can narrow the list to the languages you want to offer.

Offered languages is a single shared setting: the languages you select are the languages a shopper can choose in both Checkout and Hello, so the two never fall out of sync.

Select the languages you offer 

1. Go to Dashboard -> Settings -> Branding -> Branding settings.
2. Under Languages, click the Offered languages field.
3. Select each language you want to offer. Type to search the list, and click a selected language again to remove it.
4. Click Save.

Your change applies to Checkout and Hello automatically—there is nothing to redeploy on your storefront.

Note: Leave Offered languages empty to offer every language Zonos supports. The field displays All languages when nothing is selected.

How your selection affects shoppers 

• Both Checkout and Hello list only the languages you offer in their language selector.
• If a shopper's browser or location resolves to a language you don't offer, the widget falls back to English—or, if you don't offer English, to the first language in your selection.
• Selecting exactly one language hides the language selector entirely in both Checkout and Hello, and every shopper sees that language.
• Removing a language later takes effect the next time a shopper loads your storefront. Shoppers who had chosen the removed language fall back like any other unsupported language.

Supported languages 

You can offer any of the following 20 languages:
