Meet customers in their language, currency, and units.
Translate every screen with Language Manager, translate each product's own name and description, format currency and dates the way your business expects them shown, and display distances in kilometers or miles, so ordering feels local everywhere you operate.

What you can do

Product translations
Enter a product's name and description in each language your platform offers, from the product editor.
Languages, dates, and phone formats
Enable the languages your project offers and set the default, switch the Dashboard, Business App, and Driver App to their own language, and set date, time, and phone formats for your region.
Dashboard
Every screen, ready to translate
Language Manager holds every piece of interface text as a key and its translated text, so you control the exact wording customers see in each language.
- Every interface text lives as a key next to its translated text
- Search and page through the full list of text keys
- Add a new key when you need custom text the platform doesn’t already cover
- Customers switch the language of the website and app whenever they like
- More than 25 languages are available to translate into, including English, Spanish, French, and German
Dashboard
Currency formatted the way your customers expect
Currency settings control how amounts are written across your platform, from the symbol itself to how the numbers around it are formatted.
- Set the currency symbol for your business, such as $, €, or £
- Choose whether the symbol shows to the left or right of the amount
- Set the number of decimals shown
- Choose the decimal separator, such as a point or a comma
- Choose the thousand separator, so larger totals stay easy to read
Website and customer app
Distances in the unit customers already use
Distances shown to customers, such as how far a store is, can display in the unit they're used to.
- Choose kilometers or miles for distance measurements shown to customers
- Helps customers who travel, or aren't used to the local unit, get their bearings immediately
Dashboard
Translate each product, not just the interface
Language Manager translates interface text. A product's own name and description are translated separately, from the product editor.
- Open the language selector in the product editor to choose which language you're editing
- Enter a translated name and, if needed, description for that language
- The Dashboard shows the edited value in the language you selected
- Works alongside Language Manager, which covers interface text, not product content
Dashboard
Choose which languages are available, and the default
Before a language reaches customers, it has to be enabled for the project, with one of the enabled languages set as the default.
- Enable or disable each language your project can offer
- Choose one enabled language as the default
- Each change saves right away
- Enabling a language is separate from translating interface text in Language Manager or product content in the product editor
Dashboard, Business App, and Driver App
A language switch for your team and your drivers
Interface language isn't only a customer-facing setting. Your team and your drivers can each work in the language they prefer.
- Switch the Dashboard to any language available to the project, from the Multilanguage option in the sidebar
- Business App and Driver App staff and drivers pick their own interface language from Profile, on their own device
- The choice is saved on that device, not the account, so a phone and a tablet can show different languages
- The language list only appears once the project has more than one enabled language
Dashboard
Date, time, and phone formats for your region
A few more regional controls round out how your platform presents information to customers and your team.
- General time format: 24-hour, 12-hour, or a custom string
- General date format: year-month-day or day-month-year, each paired with 24-hour or 12-hour time, or a custom layout
- A separate, shorter date format just for scheduled preorders
- Skip strict phone-number validation so customers can enter international or non-standard formats
How it works
From setup to the next order.
- 01Set languages and translations
Enable the languages your project offers, choose the default, and translate your interface text with Language Manager and your product content from the product editor.
- 02Set currency and number formats
Choose your currency symbol and position, and the decimal and thousand separators your customers expect.
- 03Set dates, distance, and phone formats
Choose date and time formats, kilometers or miles, and whether to accept international phone numbers.
Good to know
- Language Manager holds every piece of interface text as an editable key, so new keys appear as the platform grows.
- Enabling a language, translating interface text, and translating product content are managed separately.
- Switching the language in the Business App or Driver App changes that device's interface only, not the customer-facing language or every teammate's device.
