Unable to see Crypto.com Pay option
If your store’s visitors are viewing your store in their local currency, and they couldn’t see the payment option after you installed and activated Crypto.com Pay, this could be because of a limitation of Shopify for third-party payment vendors.
To workaround this limitation, you can set the base currency of your selling markets to be the same as your store currency.
Your store currency is the currency that you price your products in. Here’s how to change the base currency of your selling markets to be the same as your store currency:
From your Shopify admin, go to Settings > Store details > Store currency, then you can view or change your store currency. Changing your store currency also changes your primary market because your primary market is determined by your store currency.
Go to Settings > Markets. You can set up your selling markets by adding single-country markets or multiple-country markets. When you create a new single-country market, the default base currency for the market is set to the currency for that country. When you create a multiple-country market, the default base currency is set to your store's base currency, and local currencies are enabled by default.
Select each market and click Manage, then you will see Market settings > Products and pricing.
In Market settings > Products and pricing, click Manage, then you will see Pricing > Base currency.
In Pricing > Base currency, make sure the base currency is the same as your store currency. You can change the base currency and click Save if it is different from your store currency.
When you select a multiple-country market, you will see “Show prices to customers in their local currency” is enabled by default. Please disable it by unticking the checkbox and then click Save. So that your customers from different selling markets can always see Crypto.com Pay as a payment option during checkout.
