A branded, trusted checkout without Shopify Plus: what each plan allows
Checked against the sources on 11 October 2026
Your store looks like your brand; the payment step often looks like everyone else's. Here is what Shopify allows on each plan, as its help pages state (read 11 October 2026), and another way to do it.
The short version
- Every plan can set a logo, colours and fonts in the checkout editor.
- Blocks, badges and reviews inside the checkout steps, and the styling API, need Plus.
- Plus starts at $2,300 a month on a 3-year term.
- CheckoutSwitch gives any plan a checkout with your guarantee, badges and a review.
Every plan
The checkout editor lets every store set its logo, colour palette, and heading and body fonts (checkout branding).
Basic and above
Apps can add blocks to the Thank you and Order status pages, and payment-customization apps can hide, rename or reorder some methods (checkout customization).
Plus only
Apps that change the information, shipping and payment steps, custom Functions, full checkout blocks and the advanced styling API are for Plus stores (checkout customization). Plus starts at $2,300 a month on a 3-year term, or $2,500 on a 1-year term (Plus pricing).
Why trust at the payment step matters
In Baymard's research, 19% of shoppers who abandoned a checkout said they didn't trust the site with their card details; average abandonment is 70.22% (Baymard). We make no conversion promise: Shopify's own checkout converts well.
Where CheckoutSwitch fits
CheckoutSwitch gives any Shopify plan a checkout page of its own in one of three layouts (Classic, Flow, Assured), with your colour, corners, badges, guarantee and a review. See all three on the demo store.
Every payment is checked against its order every 15 minutes. If our plan ever stops, your store falls back to Shopify's own checkout with the same cart.
It costs $49 a month for your first store and $29 for each store after it, and 0% of your orders. Whop's own card fees (from 2.7% + $0.30 per domestic card) are paid to Whop, not to us. Your first store has 7 days free.
See the checkout before you decide: the demo store runs on Whop in test mode, in all three layouts.
