Google Translate Pro: Translate your PrestaShop store into 100+ languages

Offer a multilingual experience to your international visitors by integrating Google Translate directly into your PrestaShop store.

The challenge of selling internationally

You have a PrestaShop store and you receive visitors from all over the world. That's great news for your business... as long as these visitors understand what you're selling.

The reality is often different: a Japanese customer lands on your product page in French, doesn't understand the features or shipping terms, and leaves your site without buying. You just lost a sale.

Existing solutions have issues:

• Manual translation of your catalog into 10 languages costs thousands of euros and requires constant maintenance with each new product
• Setting up multilingual PrestaShop requires considerable work and technical skills
• Asking visitors to use their own translator creates friction that drives away buyers

That's why we developed Google Translate Pro.

What is Google Translate Pro?

Google Translate Pro is a PrestaShop module that integrates Google's translation engine directly into your store. Your visitors select their language via an elegant selector, and the entire page is translated instantly.

No page reload, no cart loss, no complex configuration. The customer stays on your site and can browse, read product pages and complete their order in their native language.

6 professional designs

The language selector must blend seamlessly with your theme. That's why we offer 6 different designs:

Simple The classic Google Translate design. Discreet and functional, it adapts to all sites without drawing attention.

Dropdown menu A compact dropdown selector. Ideal for headers where space is limited.

Horizontal bar Languages displayed side by side in a modern bar. Perfect for navigation integration.

Flags with names Each language is represented by its flag along with the language name. Visual and intuitive, this design enables immediate recognition.

Flags only Ultra-compact version with flags only. Visitors recognize their country at a glance.

Modern card style A contemporary design with card effect and subtle shadows. Gives a premium look to your language selector.

20 color themes

To perfectly match your brand identity, we offer 20 predefined color palettes:

• Blue tones: Ocean, Sky, Royal, Azure
• Purple tones: Violet, Grape, Lavender
• Green tones: Emerald, Forest, Mint
• Warm tones: Sunset, Cherry, Coral, Rose, Flamingo, Peach
• Neutral tones: Carbon, Slate, Steel
• Accent: Gold

Each theme has been carefully crafted to deliver a professional look.

Flexible positioning

Display the language selector exactly where you want using PrestaShop hooks:

• displayNav1 / displayNav2: In the top navigation bar
• displayTop: At the top of the page
• displayFooter: In the footer
• displayLeftColumn / displayRightColumn: In side columns
• displayBanner: In the banner area
• displayNavFullWidth: Full-width navigation

Frame hiding option

By default, Google Translate displays a bar at the top of the page indicating the page is translated. If you prefer a more discreet integration, you can hide this frame for a smoother user experience.

Why choose Google Translate Pro?

No API key required

Unlike other translation solutions, Google Translate Pro works without API configuration. You install the module, choose your options, and you're done.

Zero SEO impact

Translation happens client-side via JavaScript. Your original content remains intact for search engines. You don't risk duplicate content penalties or SEO dilution.

Optimized performance

The module only loads necessary resources. CSS and JavaScript files are minified and flags are in SVG format for crisp rendering on all screens without adding to load time.
