geolocation and prices

I need to duplicate a VM shop with geomla plugin which shows different prices and currencies depending on the geolocated zone, can I set this up using Hika and geolocation?

For example a single product sells to:
customer in zone 1 at £3.50
customer in zone 2 at £4.00
customer in zone 3 $9
The customer zones are currently identified by geolocation and the customer sees the correct price for the zone they are ordering from.
We don't need currency conversion as our payment gateway filters $ from £ and directs them to different banks.
Postage and tax is included in all prices.

Can we do the same thing using Hikashop and the geolocation plugin?

I have a similar need to the OP. I need different prices for different zones but a number of zones will share the same currency (i.e. US$).

Is it possible to duplicate (for example) the USD currency several times and apply a suitable increased or decreased rate so it appears on the front end that each zone is in USD but in Hikashop it is using several USD currencies to cope with the different prices for the various zones?

And if the above is possible, does the geolocation plugin allow for site visitors to be 'automatically' shown product prices based on the US currency for their zone?

Hope that all makes sense...

Hi,

Did you tried to create another currency through "Hikashop->Configuration->Currencies" ?

No I haven't tried - I am just researching at this point. I am quoting on a job but need to know if Hikashop can do what the client wants without too much (if any) development.

Cheers

Still regarding geolocation and prices - is it possible to automatically set and display a specific currency from information gathered from a visitors geolocation?

What is the procedure to define different prices for different currencies?

I don't want the price to convert but to be fixed for each currency. I need my product to be 9,95CAD and also 9,95USD.

Thanks,
