Hi, I’m merchant in Korea.
In Korea, people usually don’t use the zip code.
I was trying to delete the zip code in checkout but I coudn’t because it’s mandatory in shopify checkout page.
So I changed the text.
“Zip code” → “Loterry numbers (5 digits)”
→ So, my clients(users) could make the payments with put 5 digits of loterry numbers instead of zip code.
→ I did this and this was working fine for 3-4 months even people put 00000 / 77777 / 12345 in lottery number (zip code) section.
[ISSUE]
But the issue started from this thursday. (22.03.31)
I just found that user cound’t make the payment because of zip code.
→ When user put numbers, it showed the alert text:
showing “put valid zip code” in Lottery number(zip number) section.
[Efforts to solve this problem]
-
My dev didn’t change anything on checkout page. (and it’s impossible to change)
-
I asked it to shopify support team, And they don’t know exacly if there was this update.
- The shopify supporter told me that he made escalation about this and He found same issue for other merchants.
This website made very good revenue.
20,000 ~ 30,000$ revenue per month and got 1/5 because of this small setting.
[In resume]
-
It was able to pay with any numbers in Loterry number (zip code) section even 00000, 77777, 12345. (Until 22.03.30)
-
Shopify has been changed the setting. (if user put invalid number such as 00000, 77777) its not working and show “put valid zip code”. (from 22.03.31)
-
So I need to go back to last setting because in Korea we people don’t know their zip code. (can proceed with any number)
[Questions]
-
Anyone knows how to fix this? I can pay.
-
When do you expect that shopify dev team will fix this?
-
In shopify Plus, can we delete the zip code?
Thanks a lot. I need urgent help.
