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.
PayLock lets you control which payment methods appear at checkout for specific products, collections, or product tags. Hide selected methods or show only the ones you choose. Set rules for cash on delivery and bank deposit, and register additional payment method names to reuse across rules. Create, edit, and delete rules from Shopify admin. Registration does not activate a payment service.
