Your store is set up for Guernsey
When you choose Guernsey at sign-up, Omniterra sets your currency to GBP, your time zone to Europe/Guernsey. Everything can be changed later.
Taxes
Tax is not preset for this country; add your rate in Settings → Taxes if you need one.
Payments
Card and wallet payments are the norm in Guernsey, so cash on delivery is off by default. You can still turn it on, with fees, limits and fraud scoring, if your customers ask for it.
Card payments work through your own Stripe or PayPal account where they are available, with card fields, Apple Pay and Google Pay directly in your checkout. Bank transfer is built in, and there is no commission from us on any sale.
Shipping and couriers
Couriers commonly used in Guernsey are ready in your admin — DHL Express, UPS, FedEx, DPD, GLS — with tracking links filled in where we know the format. Add your own rates, free-shipping threshold and local carriers.
Checkout that feels local
The address form skips the region field, which is not used for addresses here, and phone numbers are checked against the +44 format.
