If you are a global brand that runs Jebbit experiences in multiple regions you may wish to take the same underlying experience but run it in a different language and display different product recommendations for each region. This is a Localization.
If your Jebbit contract includes Localization support, you will be given the proper permissions to localize your campaigns which will help you track your usage against your contract utilization.
Further, even if you are not using Localizations, you are able to very easily translate your experience into a different language while copying.
Localizing and Translating an experience is accomplished when creating a copy of the experience.

Step-by-Step Guide
The option to copy and experience is found either by hovering over the experience in the Workbench, or within the toolbar in the upper right corner of the Builder Map. You will need to start by creating a copy of an experience which will open the Copy menu.
To take an existing experience and copy the same experience to a new language, select the language you want from the dropdown within the Copy menu:
When copying a campaign, you will notice the option to 'Localize'. We will default to localizing the campaign you are copying, but you can choose any campaign to tie the Localization to (even campaigns you have access to under your parent brand).
All Localizations will be tied to one root campaign, so you will not be able to tie a Localized campaign to another Localized campaign. You can identify your Localized campaigns by viewing the icons in the Workbench.
If an existing campaign is technically a Localization of another root campaign, you can still make that designation without having to start a new copy. To Localize an existing campaign, click on the campaign name from the navigation within the Builder Map, and select the 'Localization' check box. You just need to tie the campaign you're localizing to a root experience.
