How it sells itself

Shopify Scripts shut down June 30, 2026. checkout.liquid is already deprecated. Stores relying on Script discounts, custom shipping rules, or pixels firing from theme.liquid will silently break at checkout. Checkout Migration Expert runs a read-only audit and returns a 0-100 Health Score plus a prioritized list of issues across Scripts, checkout.liquid, Additional Scripts, tracking pixels, and legacy script_tag…

Convert legacy checkout scripts to Custom Pixels automatically — free. Shopify is retiring Additional Scripts, so your Google Ads, Meta, TikTok, Pinterest, and affiliate tracking will stop firing. PixelWard reads your old code, generates ready-to-paste Custom Pixel code, and maps it to standard checkout events at no cost.

Key points
  • Checkout Health Score from 0-100 with critical, warning, and info findings
  • Audits Scripts, checkout.liquid, Additional Scripts, pixels, and script_tag
  • Every finding links to the official Shopify doc and step-by-step fix guidance
  • Read-only access — no theme edits, no checkout changes, safe for production
  • Converts Additional Scripts into ready-to-paste Custom Pixel code
  • Supports Google Ads, Meta, TikTok, Pinterest and affiliate tracking
  • Monitors pixel health and alerts by email when tracking goes silent
  • Flags script parts that need manual review before they fail silently
