As of 13 August 2024, Shopify has enforced the Checkout Extensibility upgrade for all Plus merchants. This upgrade is important for maintaining the seamless, customisable checkout experience your customers expect.
⚠️ If your store is still using unsupported checkout.liquid code on the Information, Shipping, and Payment pages, it’s essential to upgrade to Checkout Extensibility immediately to avoid restrictions and loss of custom checkout features.
⚠️ Starting 6 January 2025, Shopify will begin automatically upgrading stores to Checkout Extensibility. Any customisations made through checkout.liquid—such as advanced styling, checkout form modifications, custom analytics, upsells, and other bespoke functionalities—will be permanently lost.
⚠️ To avoid losing your custom checkout features, complete your upgrade as soon as possible. Shopify will notify you 30 days in advance of any auto-upgrade via email, but we recommend transitioning well before that.
The move to Checkout Extensibility is not just a technical update; it’s about ensuring your store continues to deliver an exceptional customer experience.
Customisations in the checkout process are often key to creating a unique brand experience and losing these could negatively impact satisfaction and conversion rates.
By upgrading now, you secure your ability to maintain essential elements, ensuring your store remains competitive and your customers remain happy.
Changes will ensure that buttons support features like Functions and Product Bundles as well as reduce load times and speed up the checkout experience.
As a byproduct of these changes, the internal HTML structure of these buttons has been updated. This may impact the appearance of customised buttons and themes as well as any analytic services used to track button clicks. What you need to know:
✅ This update has been rolled out to all dev stores on Checkout Extensibility where you can preview the changes
✅ You can review this guide to ensure your customisations remain compatible with the latest updates
✅ The changes will begin to roll out to all merchants starting September 15.
Shopify has introduced an important update to the checkout experience for customers in select EU countries, adding new address fields that improve accuracy and efficiency in the checkout process.
✅The Address field in the checkout is replaced by additional fields for Street name and Building number. Depending on the country or region, these fields might be required.
✅An additional Neighbourhood field is added. Depending on the country or region, this field might be required.
Improved delivery accuracy: The new separate fields for Street Name and Building Number ensure greater precision in address entry, reducing delivery errors and potential returns. This is especially important for densely populated areas where similar street names and building numbers can lead to confusion.
Collective retailers can now live-fetch their suppliers' shipping rates at checkout.
✅ Retailers have been upgraded to a new, simplified carrier shipping profile, allowing you to automatically fetch your suppliers’ shipping rates and add them directly to customer orders at checkout.
✅ Suppliers can set flat or calculated shipping rates based on specific rules (like “free shipping for orders over”) to incentivise higher average order values.
✅ Retailers retain full control over which shipping rates are displayed to customers at checkout and can customise them further with custom shipping profiles or free shipping discounts.
Accurate shipping rates: Live-fetching ensures that the shipping rates displayed to your customers are based on real-time data from your suppliers, preventing discrepancies and unexpected costs.
Boost conversion and AOV: By offering calculated rates such as “free shipping for orders over,” you can incentivise customers to spend more, improving average order value while reducing cart abandonment.
