Problem:

Switching the currency based on the client's location doesn't work on Nginx Reverse Proxy

Solution:

WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency plugin uses the built-in API in WooCommerce for geolocation: https://woocommerce.github.io/code-reference/files/woocommerce-includes-class-wc-geolocation.html#source-view.80.

So what is happening on your website is the server's IP is being served instead of the actual user IP. That means the website will see every user visiting the website is located in the US.

We came across a helpful document at https://ypereirareis.github.io/blog/2017/02/15/nginx-real-ip-behind-nginx-reverse-proxy/ that provides instructions on obtaining the actual user IP. Kindly review the document and let us know how it goes.
