Localize and Re-Price Paywalls for Every Market

Translate paywalls into any language and test geo-aware pricing in local currency for every market, all without shipping an app release or waiting on engineering.

Reaching a new country shouldn't take a new app build. Translate paywalls into any language and test geo-aware pricing in local currency, all without shipping an app release or waiting on engineering. Re-price your paywalls for every market on your own schedule.

Why it matters

Most apps hard-code one language and one price, then treat every new market as an engineering project. So international users see English copy and a foreign currency, convert at a fraction of the rate, and the revenue you paid to acquire them walks out the door.

This is a real, recurring ask from subscription teams: localization and international pricing show up as a distinct customer demand signal in Superwall's voice-of-customer research, alongside the broader push to test prices without painful in-app changes. The teams that win treat language and price as something a growth team can change and test on its own, the same week they decide to.

What you can do with Superwall

  • Translate every paywall with AI Localize. Simple localization auto-translates all text elements and multiple-choice labels into any language, with control over formality and brand voice. Filter to untranslated content, edit individual values, and import/export as CSV.

  • Bring your own translation pipeline. Advanced localization lets you upload .strings files and integrate Lokalise and Crowdin, which sync strings automatically and pull translations once they're marked Reviewed or Approved.

  • Let period terms localize themselves. Subscription period terminology auto-localizes — "year" renders as "année" in French — so prices read naturally in every market without manual edits.

  • Localize text with dynamic values, no built-in feature required. Use device.deviceLanguageCode and device.deviceLocale to conditionally render translated copy.

  • Show the right price in local currency. On iOS, prices follow the App Store storefront automatically. For web checkout, Stripe Adaptive Pricing converts to the customer's local currency in real time, with exchange rates locked for 24 hours and local payment methods enabled where required.

  • Target and test by country and locale. Build audiences on attributes like device.storeFrontCountryCode and device.deviceLocale to show country- and locale-specific paywalls and run price points head-to-head per market.

How it works

  • Localize the paywall. In the paywall editor, run AI Localize across every text element, or upload your own .strings files. Superwall matches the device's locale at runtime and falls back to English when a chosen locale isn't available.
  • Target the market. Add audience rules in a campaign so the right country or locale sees the right paywall and price.
  • Set up local currency. iOS pricing follows the App Store storefront; for web, enable Stripe Adaptive Pricing so customers pay in their presentment currency.
  • Preview before you publish. See localized text render live in the editor and on-device, and test a specific country by switching your App Store region (for storeFrontCountryCode) or device locale (for deviceLocale).
  • Ship and iterate without a release. Publish translations and pricing changes remotely — no new app build, no engineering queue.

Proof from customers

Localization and international pricing is a named demand signal in Superwall's customer research (28 of 184 analyzed calls, ~15%), and it sits next to one of the strongest patterns in the data: teams want to test prices without painful in-app changes (price testing appears in ~32% of calls). The common thread across these conversations is autonomy — growth and marketing teams want to change language, currency, and price points themselves, fast, without turning every market launch into engineering work.

Feature claims on this page are drawn from Superwall's live documentation. Specific conversion or revenue lifts will vary by app and market and are intentionally not stated as guarantees.

Use cases

  • Launch a new country this week. Translate the paywall, target the locale, enable local currency, and publish without an app release.

  • Raise ARPU per market. Test geo-aware price points by country instead of running one global price.

  • Fix a leaking funnel. Replace English-only paywalls in high-traffic regions with native-language copy and local currency.

  • Scale web-to-app internationally. Pair localized paywalls with Stripe Adaptive Pricing so web checkout customers pay in their own currency.

Get started
