# Currency format

Currency format controls whether the currency code is shown next to your prices. It is a single switch, but it matters for stores that sell across borders, because `$24.00` means different things in different countries while `$24.00 USD` does not. Turn it on when your customers come from several currency zones, and leave it off when you sell in one market and the extra code only adds clutter.

### Settings <a href="#settings" id="settings"></a>

| Setting                 | Description                                                                                        |

| **Show currency codes** | Displays the currency code alongside prices, so customers can tell which currency they are seeing. |

### What customers see <a href="#what-customers-see" id="what-customers-see"></a>

With the setting on, prices carry their currency code wherever they appear: product cards, product pages, search results, the mini cart and the cart page. That removes any doubt for international shoppers about which dollar or which krone they are being charged in, which prevents surprises at checkout. With it off, prices show the symbol only, which reads cleaner on a store that sells in a single currency.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://uxsmart.gitbook.io/velare/set-up-your-store/currency-format.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
