Helping Shopify merchants navigate the Shopify ecosystem for winning outcomes

Hello 👋

If you're a Shopify Plus merchant, delve into the Checkout Extensibility upgrade while you still have time to manage it smoothly.

Shopify will stop allowing checkout customization using ‘checkout.liquid’ layout on August 13, 2024. The main thing to get is that any changes you made to your checkout process won't work after this specific date.

This impacts custom changes and apps that work with checkout unless you take proactive measures. What does Checkout Extensibility have for you instead?

With a drag-and-drop editor, you can now:

  • Add a logo to your checkout header

  • Change the background of your checkout form

  • Change the background of your order summary

  • Customize the colors of your checkout

  • Customize the font of your checkout

On top of that, with the developer's help, you can also:

  • Apply custom fonts

  • Change sizes of particular elements (headings, form inputs, etc.)

  • Change the style of specific components (adding rounded corners, etc.)

These tools let you blend the checkout with your shop's look, making shopping smoother.

👉 Reach out to get help for a seamless transaction from 'checkout.liquid' to Checkout Extensibility. Our developers will ensure your checkout is ready on time.

Have a great day and see you next week,
