Languages supported by Process Wholesale
Process Wholesale has separate language lists for the admin app, the storefront, checkout messages and emails. The admin app is available in English, French, Spanish, German and Italian, and follows your Shopify admin language. The storefront blocks and customer account forms are translated into English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese (Brazil and Portugal) and Swedish, following the storefront language. The checkout minimum order messages cover the same storefront languages. Any language not listed falls back to English, and text you type yourself, such as block headings and email templates, is shown exactly as you wrote it.

Storefront block languages#
Storefront blocks follow the language the customer is browsing your store in. Every block below is translated into English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal) and Swedish, unless the table says otherwise. Any other language shows English.
| Storefront area | Translated | Stays as written or in English |
|---|---|---|
| Wholesale signup form (theme block) | Field labels (First Name, Last Name, Email, Password, Business Name, Business Address and its address fields, Phone Number, Tax ID, Website, Additional Info), Submit, Login, Create wholesale account, Request to Join Wholesale, Browse products and the error heading | Headings and messages you type in the block settings |
| Custom signup form | The form's built-in buttons and messages | The fields you create. The app notes that these "will need to be translated manually." |
| Product Wholesale block | The five price table headers | The word "Any" in the table, and text you type in block settings |
| Quick Buy | Titles, buttons, table headers and messages of the order form | All Buy again and reorder text is English only. These also stay in English: stock and quantity warnings (for example "Cannot add more than N items."), "Enter quantity", "No results found", "Search error occurred", "« Prev" and "Next »", "SKU: ", discount labels such as "% off" and " each", "Cart Quantity Discount" and the default name "Customer". |
| Hide price | Nothing | The message you enter is shown as written in every language. If you leave it empty, the English default "Log in to see price" is shown. |

Checkout message languages#
The minimum order messages that Process Wholesale shows in Shopify checkout follow the checkout language.
| Checkout language | Minimum order amount and quantity messages |
|---|---|
| German | German |
| Spanish | Spanish |

| Italian | Italian |
| Norwegian | Norwegian |
| Portuguese (Brazil), or Portuguese with no region | Portuguese (Brazil) |
| Portuguese (Portugal) | Portuguese (Portugal) |

For example, a wholesale customer checking out in Japanese sees "Minimum order amount for wholesale customers is: 200.00 USD" in English, while a customer checking out in Portuguese (Portugal) sees "O valor mínimo da encomenda para clientes grossistas é: 200.00 EUR".
Wholesale discount names in the cart and checkout are built from your discount tag, for example "PW: gold", and are the same in every language. The full list of messages is in Checkout and storefront messages reference.
Email languages#
Process Wholesale emails to customers follow their own rules, separate from the storefront and checkout lists.
| Language | |
|---|---|
| Wholesale application emails (pending, approval, rejection) | One version of each email, in the language you write it. There are no per-language versions. |
| At-risk customer recovery emails | Your store's primary language when it is English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch or Japanese. Any other primary language gets the English email. The customer's own language is not used. |
