Learn how to update a single email template to use a different currency symbol than your global setting. This affects product prices and other values that use the template's currency formatting.

Changing the currency format does not convert prices using exchange rates. For example, a value of 30 displays as $30.00 in US dollars or £30.00 in British pounds. Make sure your price data is already in the currency you want to display.

Update currency formatting for a specific template

  1. Open your template in the email editor, then select Edit styles in the left sidebar.
  2. Choose a new currency symbol from the Currency menu.

How currency formatting affects a template

For prices that use the template's currency setting, changing the currency updates:

  • The currency symbol
  • The placement of the currency symbol (i.e., prefix or suffix)
  • The punctuation used in formatting the value (i.e., commas or periods)

To apply this formatting to a value in a text block, use the {% currency_format ... %} tag. Values displayed without this tag and currency symbols entered manually in a text block do not update. A currency specified by a product or explicitly in a tag takes precedence over the template setting. Learn more about using currency tags.

This setting overrides the default currency setting in your account, but only for the current template. This is useful if you are segmenting based on geographical region and are targeting your campaign content based on different locations.
