Highlight Features

Improve all available currencies at store sites

One of the notable features of Mageplaza’s Magento 2 Currency Formatter extension is its ability to advance all accessible currencies at online stores. Customers will notice all pricing more plainly and with consideration for the many currencies in use throughout the world.

Specify and place the symbol of currency

With Currency Formatter, you can assign any symbol for any price currency at your online store. Both abbreviations and signs, such as USD or $ for the US dollar, are accepted. Besides, the extension also offers various positioning options: Before value, Before value with space, After value, After value with space, and None if not show the currency symbol.

Easily modify the thousands separator

The thousands separator should be used to separate the thousands groups in order to make the pricing value more obvious. Each country's custom dictates a different divider sign. Similar to how the United Kingdom and the United States split groups of thousands, many other nations use a dot in their place, and some nations use a narrow spacing. Recognizing this variation, Currency Formatter provides 4 different separator types to satisfy the requirements of any country's numeric format, including Space, Dot, Comma, and None.

Define sign and digit for decimal separator

A decimal separator is a symbol that is used to distinguish between an integer portion and a fractional portion of a number. The decimal separator is represented by a variety of official symbols used by various nations. With Currency Formatter, the decimal sign can be adjusted flexibly to be either a comma or a dot to correspond to the national numbering system of each country.

Additionally, the admin backend makes it simple to configure the number of decimals. By following the integer portion of the price with a chosen decimal number, store owners can advertise the degree of price accuracy. For instance, $15.1 for a decimal 1 and $15.11 for a decimal 2.

Multi-positions of the minus sign

If you want to display your products’ discount, you have to use the minus sign. For the placement of the minus sign, Currency Formatter provides a number of alternatives.
