This powerful feature allows you to display different URL versions to customers across various languages, creating a truly localized shopping experience.
Imagine transforming your generic product URL from "ABC.com/products/red-shoes" into language-specific versions like "ABC.com/en/products/red-shoes" or "ABC.com/fr/products/chaussures-rouges". With Transcy, you can effortlessly translate and manage URL handle translations, making your store more accessible and search-engine friendly for international customers.
Transcy supports URL handle translations for:

Setting up translated URL handles is straightforward with Transcy. Simply access the URL translation feature in your app dashboard and start customizing your URLs for each target language.
