Need some help please! How to remove buy with shop pay button

Topic summary

A user wants to replace the “Buy with Shop Pay” button on their product pages with a PayPal button instead.

Initial Solutions Offered:

  • One suggestion involves navigating to Customization > Product Page and unchecking a specific option (screenshots provided).
  • Shopify Support clarified that this is a dynamic checkout button that automatically displays based on individual customer payment preferences (e.g., Shop Pay, PayPal, Apple Pay). The button cannot be fixed to show only one payment method.

Key Points:

  • To completely remove Shop Pay as an option, it must be disabled in Settings > Payment Providers.
  • Multiple users report Shop Pay appearing persistently across devices despite not using it, questioning whether the button is truly dynamic.
  • One user mentions the Debut theme specifically and notes that code solutions work on mobile but not desktop.

Status: One participant marked their issue as “solved” but did not share the solution, leaving others requesting details. The discussion remains partially unresolved for those seeking to force a specific payment button display.

Hey there, @AllAgeGames

Bo here from Shopify Support!

That is a really great question. So, this button that is displaying as ShopPay for you now is actually a dynamic checkout button - the button’s appearance depends on the customer’s shopping habits. For example, if the customer was using Safari on their iPhone to view your store and frequently used Apple Pay the button would display as a “Pay with Apple Pay” button. Similarly - if the customer’s preferred payment method was PayPal it would show up as a yellow PayPal button. There is no way to keep it fixed on one payment method over another. It is set up in this way to maximize conversions. If you are completely averse to it displaying ShopPay you will need to disable ShopPay in Settings > Payment Providers.

I hope this clears things up!

All the Best,

Bo

How do I do this in Debut theme please? It seems to be my problem to. I have used the code you mention in another thread and Shop Pay does not show up on my phone but it keeps showing up when I use my desktop.

Thanks, Mr. Helpful

Hi Bo

I NEVER use the ShopPay button which I loathe and it shows up everywhere. On my iphone, ipad and laptop. I don’t want to switch off ShopPay I just want to get rid of it from the product page. Is it still dynamic or not?
