'Next Payout' button missing on home screen?

Topic summary

Home screen “Next Payout” shortcut for Shopify Payments has disappeared for non-owner users.

  • Troubleshooting (permissions, cache/cookies, extensions, incognito, different browsers) did not restore it.
  • Pattern: the primary store owner/admin can still see the button; staff accounts cannot, even with all permissions.

Recent update:

  • Shopify support reportedly said a recent change restricts this shortcut to the main admin only; staff access was removed.
  • The concern has been escalated to developers. No timeline or fix provided.

Workaround (still available to staff):

  • Navigate: Settings (bottom-left) > Payments > Payouts, then export payouts from there.
  • This path works for affected colleagues and replaces the missing home-screen shortcut.

Impact & status:

  • Teams reliant on the shortcut face added steps; users expressed frustration about feature removals (e.g., POS price override), but no alternative was offered.
  • Discussion remains open; no resolution or toggle to restore staff visibility of the home-screen “Next Payout” button.
  • Screenshots attached show the button before/after and the payout navigation path.

@AdamWSD Great question, it’s painful which is why the shortcut was so useful.

  1. Login to your Shopify account
  2. Click ‘Settings’ at the very bottom-left of the screen
  3. Click ‘Payments’ on the left
  4. Then click the ‘Payouts’ button
