How to Hide Payment/Delivery Methods on Shopify Checkout Page
Until now, Shopify merchants did not have control over their checkout page. Customization of the checkout page to show specific delivery/payment methods wasn’t possible. But a solution to this is now available. AddUp Checkout Customization app lets you Hide/Sort/Rename Payment & Shipping methods at your store checkout page based on the order details. No coding is required to customize your checkout page, as it can be done simply by creating rules with conditions on the order details.
Advantages of Hiding Payment Methods
Enhanced User Experience: By hiding payment methods until the final stage of the checkout process can make it faster and more intuitive for customers.
Security and Fraud Prevention: Prevent COD order cancellations after being dispatched. Receive advance payment of the order by omitting convenient payment options in risk-related orders.
Transactional fees: Merchants may want to hide particular payment options as they might incur higher transactional charges due to the total amount or business account.
Reduced Cart Abandonment: A clutter-free & straightforward payment page can help eliminate distractions and streamline the final steps, minimizing the chances of customers abandoning.
Advantages of Hiding Shipping Methods
Customize the Checkout Experience: Providing too many shipping options can harm the brand’s image. Filter out to show the best shipping carriers to your premium customers.
Shipping Cost Calculation: Hide the shipping methods that cost your business comparatively more in specific locations or due to order weight.
Minimized Cart Abandonment: If a merchant faces limitations in shipping options due to factors such as their location, size, weight, or carrier restrictions, it becomes necessary for them to consider hiding specific shipping options to prevent disappointing customers after the order is placed.
Competitive Advantage: In a highly competitive market, online sellers may opt to conceal specific shipping methods to protect their unique shipping strategies from being discovered by competitors, ensuring they maintain a competitive advantage in the market.
