Paypal Express Checkout does not add tax and shipping fees

When people click the PayPal express checkout button before defining a shipping address and/or shipping method, the total cost does not include the shipping costs and taxes.

Is there any way to hide the express checkout button without buying Shopify Plus subscription? It’s quite a big limitation that you cannot edit the checkout code on the Basic plan.

Here’s a screenshot of the said button: https://imgur.com/a/dJsLWX3

Thanks for the help community!

Dear AvadaCommerce,

Thanks for your reply, but unfortunately the link you provided refers to hiding it from my cart.

I need to hide it from my checkout page, which seems to not be possible with a Shopify basic plan, which is kind of a bummer.

Do you know any alternative solutions? Thanks!

Hi Gergely,

May I ask if you could find a solution to this problem? I am having the same issue and feel quite upset about it. Thanks a lot in advance!

Dear @Organiqa-D (Barbara),

Shopify support helped me fix this. Here’s the fix: go to /sections/cart-template.liquid in your theme code and add the hide class to your additional_checkout_buttons section.

Code before:

{%- if additional_checkout_buttons -%}
<div class="additional-checkout-buttons">{{ content_for_additional_checkout_buttons }}</div>
{%- endif -%}

After:

{%- if additional_checkout_buttons -%}
<div class="additional-checkout-buttons hide">{{ content_for_additional_checkout_buttons }}</div>
{%- endif -%}

Thanks a lot, @Gergely3 !!
So there is no solution so that PayPal Express would charge Shipping Fee? That would be the ideal / amazing solution…

Unfortunately the only solution I’ve found is doing this so PayPal only shows up at the final point of checkout.
