See every featureCheckout Guard helps merchants present their own terms and conditions during Shopify checkout and collect shopper acknowledgement. Create and publish versioned policies, choose the active version, then place the Checkout Guard block in checkout. When validation is enabled and Shopify permits checkout blocking, shoppers must select the checkbox before continuing.
