Shop Pay

Shop Pay is Shopify's accelerated checkout. It appears in a theme as a dynamic checkout button rendered by the platform from the product form, and it carries a shopper straight into a checkout with their saved details. The button's markup and behavior belong to Shopify; the theme decides where the product form is.

How We've Used It

One gated build touches it: the bridge that refreshes a product page's buy box after the cart changes underneath it. The region holding the product form and its accelerated-checkout button is re-fetched from the page's own markup and swapped in, which is exactly why the refresh is done that way rather than by patching nodes by hand — the platform's button comes back as Shopify rendered it, in the state Shopify decided, instead of being reconstructed from assumptions the theme has made about it.

Our Role

Coexistence. Our refresh work carries the platform's button through a re-render intact; the button and the checkout are Shopify's.
