# Translate & Adapt: review and real cost

Shopify's free app to translate store content, auto-translating up to two languages.

Verdict: Good, with caveats (5 of 8 checks). Rank 1 of 3 in Translation. Developer: Shopify. Listing: https://apps.shopify.com/translate-and-adapt

Any store adding one or two languages should try Translate & Adapt first, because it is free and made by Shopify [1]. The catch is the limit: outside 12 European countries it auto-translates only two languages, and recent reviews report uneven machine translations [2][5].

## Monthly cost

## Overview

Translate & Adapt is Shopify's own translation app [1]. It auto-translates store content into up to two languages for free, and you can add manual translations for as many languages as you like in a side-by-side editor [1].

It also adapts content between markets that speak the same language, for spelling and messaging differences [1].

## Pricing

The app is free [1]. Stores in Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom can auto-translate up to 8 languages; all others get 2 [2]. One extra language costs $0 at every store size, and no word limit is published.

## Merchants

Translate & Adapt is rated 4.4 from 1,408 reviews [1]. Merchants like the clean side-by-side editor, good automatic translations and tight Shopify integration [1]. Recent low ratings report translation bugs, the two-language limit and slow answers from Shopify Support [5].

## Data

You can export translations as a CSV file from Settings > Languages in your Shopify admin, for one language or all, and the file is emailed to you [3]. Shopify has been issued SOC 2 Type II and SOC 3 reports and is PCI DSS Level 1 compliant [4].
