Go global, cross-border

How do I price the same product differently for the US, UK and UAE without looking inconsistent?

The short answer

Set market-specific pricing deliberately, Shopify Markets lets you define a distinct price per country rather than a flat currency conversion, and you should use it, because a straight FX conversion ignores local duty, competitor pricing and purchasing power. Anchor each market's price to its own landed cost plus a target margin, not to your India MRP times the exchange rate; customers in different countries never compare notes on your USD vs AED price. Round to locally natural price points rather than an ugly converted number.
