Description
Show every reader a price they understand
AutoCurr is a WordPress currency converter built for publishers who include prices in posts and pages. Enter the source price once. The original price stays visible, and the visitor’s local currency is added automatically when conversion is available. Automatic rate updates mean less manual currency maintenance. WooCommerce is not required.
Built for publishers who write about prices, including travel blogs, affiliate and review sites, guides, resource sites, and international publications. WooCommerce is not required, no AutoCurr account is needed, and no API key is required by default. AutoCurr displays content prices; it does not process checkout or payments.
AutoCurr Free includes
- Automatic visitor currency detection
- Automatic local currency conversion
- Original source price remains visible
- Broad fiat currency support
- Simple [autocurr] shortcode
- Automatic exchange-rate updates
- Graceful fallback when conversion is unavailable
- No AutoCurr telemetry or analytics
- No WooCommerce required
- No API key required by default
Add a price anywhere
Use this shortcode in shortcode-enabled content:
[autocurr amount=”26″ currency=”EUR”]
Readers see the original EUR 26 price together with a converted amount when a supported conversion is available. If their currency is already EUR, the price appears once.
Need more control?
AutoCurr Free is a complete standalone plugin. The separate AutoCurr Pro add-on provides a faster publishing workflow and more control over localized prices:
- Visual Gutenberg/RichText authoring
- Convert selected text into localized prices
- Reusable Price Library
- Localized price ranges
- Visitor currency switching
- Advanced display controls
- Localization rules
- Manual exchange rates
- Percentage markup
- Daily exchange-rate refresh

External Services
AutoCurr uses Frankfurter v2 to retrieve reference exchange rates when a conversion is required and no fresh cached rate is available. Requests are made server-side and include the requested source and target currency codes. AutoCurr does not send price amounts, post content, or the visitor’s IP address to Frankfurter. As with any server request, Frankfurter can see the website server’s outbound IP address.
Frankfurter: https://frankfurter.dev/
Terms and privacy information: https://frankfurter.dev/#faq
Site administrators can optionally configure Open Exchange Rates as a fallback when Frankfurter cannot return a rate. When enabled, AutoCurr sends the configured App ID and requests the provider’s USD-based rate table. It does not forward visitor IP addresses, price amounts or post content. Open Exchange Rates can see the website server’s outbound IP address. Both services receive an AutoCurr/version User-Agent.

FAQ
-
Does AutoCurr work without WooCommerce?
-
Yes. AutoCurr is built for prices inside WordPress posts and pages and does not require WooCommerce. Add a source price to your content and AutoCurr can show a localized conversion alongside it.
-
How does AutoCurr choose a visitor’s currency?
-
Available hosting/CDN country information is preferred where supported. The browser’s regional locale can be used as a fallback. If no supported target currency is determined, the original price remains visible.
-
The original price remains visible. AutoCurr does not replace it with an incorrect conversion. This also applies when JavaScript is unavailable or the site’s REST API cannot be reached.
-
How often are exchange rates updated?
-
Free updates exchange rates automatically when needed after previously fetched rates expire. Pro offers daily exchange-rate refresh. Updates happen when a conversion is requested; these are not real-time rates.
-
Does AutoCurr track visitors?
-
AutoCurr Free contains no telemetry or analytics. Exchange-rate requests are made server-side, and visitor IP addresses are not forwarded to rate providers. Providers can see the website server’s outbound IP address and the AutoCurr version in the request’s User-Agent. AutoCurr does not call an external geolocation service.
-
What does AutoCurr Pro add?
-
Pro adds visual publishing tools, reusable prices, visitor currency switching and additional display and rate controls. See https://autocurr.com/ for details.
