How To Remove Express Checkout First Page

Hi,

We’re losing conversions due to having Express checkout enabled as people don’t think we take standard card and they’re not going through with checkouts how do you remove express checkout but still offer paypal at the end of the checkout?

We really want to disable Express Checkout.

Any help would greatly appreciated

Hi Avern Cleaning Supplies,

It seems like since mid of 2022, the liquid / CSS code to hide the checkout button does not work anymore. To hide the express checkout payment method, you will need an app that utilize Shopify Functions. (a way for an app to communicate with Shopify to remove certain payment methods)

I have made an app to hide the Paypal Express (and other express checkout method like Apple Pay, Google Pay etc) on the top part of checkout page, and customer can still select Paypal method at the payment step.

The app is made using native Shopify Functions, thus it does not affect your store existing layout or functionality at all. You don’t need to be on Shopify Plus plan to use the app, your store can be on any Shopify Plan.

The app name is Yagi Express Payment Hider (https://apps.shopify.com/yagi-express-payment-hider)

The app also have a workaround which you can hide the express checkout buttons for returning customers with saved address, but you will need to create a placeholder shipping rate for it to work, this will also work with one-page checkout.

Hope this can help!

You can remove express checkout and still offer PayPal at the end of the checkout using the PayRules: Hide Payment Methods app. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Open the PayRules app.
  2. Navigate to the “PayPal Express Checkout” section.
  3. Enable the toggle to hide the PayPal Express Checkout button.

This will disable express checkout but still offer PayPal as a payment option at the end of the checkout process.
