What is Checkout Extensibility?

Checkout Extensibility is a suite of powerful platform features that make it easier to customize your checkout in a way that's app-based, upgrade-safe, performant, and seamlessly integrated with Shop Pay.

With Checkout Extensibility, you can make no-code customizations using apps and branding tools, or use our collection of components and APIs to build more bespoke checkout experiences.

Note: Due to current Shopify's limitation, Checkout Extensibility for the Checkout page (including information, shipping, and payment steps) is available only to stores on a Shopify Plus plan.
