How can I personalize my checkout with benefits text?

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

Goal: Add benefits/guarantee text in Shopify checkout.

  • Capabilities without Shopify Plus: One reply says only limited edits via Theme settings → Checkout (e.g., basic styling/text fields).
  • With Shopify Plus: Deeper checkout customization is possible using Checkout Extensions or third‑party apps; developers can build custom extensions via Shopify docs/APIs.
  • Update/clarification: A later reply notes that, unlike before, you don’t necessarily need Shopify Plus—app developers can now ship public apps built with Checkout UI Extensions that non‑Plus merchants can install to add custom content in checkout. Example mentioned: qikify Checkout Customizer (others exist in the App Store).

Key terms:

  • Shopify Plus: Enterprise plan with advanced checkout customization.
  • Checkout UI Extensions: Framework for apps to add components/content inside checkout.

Outcome/status: No definitive, authoritative confirmation; guidance suggests trying a Checkout UI Extensions app to add text blocks, or using Theme settings for basic edits. The thread remains open with a minor disagreement on the Plus requirement.

Hello,

I want to customize my checkout with text. I want to summarize/recap what they gain with benefits, the guarantee, etc. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi @jeremymac
If you are not on the shopify plus then you can update only some of the things on checkout from Theme settings → Checkout
and if you are on Shopify plus plan, then you can use customize checkout with checkout extensions apps, on app store, there are lots of apps like checkout plus, checkout buddy etc.. which are used to customize the checkout, and if you are a developer then you can create your own shopify extension using shopify docs and apis
Thanks!

Hey Jeremymac,

Yes you can! You used to need Shopify Plus to do it, but now with checkout UI extensions app builders can create public apps for merchants like yourself to customize checkout.

One I found is called qikify Checkout Customizer. I’m sure there are others in the app store, but there should be one that gets you what you’re looking for.

I hope this helps!
