FP1 – Hide Payment Methods
Hide, rename, and reorder eligible payment methods at checkout using simple priority rules. Admin-only setup — no theme edits, no storefront scripts — powered by Shopify Functions.
Best for: stores that need payment method control by rules. Not for: merchants looking for a live, publicly listed app today.
Planned pricing: $2.99/month after 14-day free trial • billed by Shopify • planned 30-day first-charge satisfaction guarantee on launch
What it does
- Create multiple checkout rules with a clear priority order (top wins).
- Hide payment methods that create failed payments, fraud risk, or confusion.
- Rename payment methods where Shopify supports renaming (some branded/logo methods may not change).
- Reorder payment methods where Shopify honors reordering.
- Admin-only: no storefront scripts, no theme edits required.
How it works
- You create rules in Shopify Admin (conditions + actions).
- At checkout, Shopify evaluates rules top to bottom.
- The first enabled rule whose conditions match is applied — then evaluation stops.
- Toggling a rule off fully disables it (it’s skipped during evaluation).
Common conditions
- Shipping country
- Cart total (min/max)
- Customer tags
- Products / collections in cart
Method targeting
- Target payment methods using simple, case-insensitive name matchers (for example:
PayPal,Klarna,Bank Deposit). - The checkout function matches against the payment methods Shopify provides at runtime.
Limitations (keep expectations realistic)
- Payment customizations depend on Shopify rules and the method’s presentation (wallets, branded/logo UI, accelerated checkout sections).
- If a rename/reorder isn’t supported in a given context, the app skips it safely — checkout is never broken.
Safety first: the app is designed to avoid “hide everything” outcomes — checkout stays usable.
FAQ
Do multiple enabled rules apply at the same time?
No — rules are evaluated from top to bottom. The first enabled rule whose conditions match is applied, then evaluation stops.
Does toggling a rule off disable it?
Yes. If a rule is toggled off, it’s skipped during evaluation and will not apply.
Why didn’t a rename or reorder apply?
Some payment methods (especially branded/logo methods and wallets) can’t always be renamed or reordered depending on how Shopify renders them. The app skips unsupported operations safely.
Can this app break checkout by hiding everything?
No. The app is designed to keep checkout usable and avoid hide-all outcomes.
How does billing work?
Uses Shopify Billing with a 14-day free trial, then $2.99/month. You’ll be asked to approve billing to enable checkout rule enforcement. Charges begin after the trial unless you uninstall or cancel before that date. Uninstalling stops future renewals. Shopify doesn’t automatically prorate unused time in the current billing period. On launch, we plan to include the same 30-day first-charge satisfaction guarantee as our live apps.
