Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featurePayment Rules moves PayPal to the top of your checkout payment list. Start from the “PayPal first” template, check the preview and save. Checkout normally preselects the first method in the list. You can also sort any other method, hide methods such as Cash on Delivery by country, cart total, products or B2B customers, and rename methods for clarity. A safety check warns you before a rule would hide every method.
PayShift gives you full control over your Shopify checkout without touching code.
