Use cases
When to reach for this.
Last-chance upsell
Highest-intent moment in the funnel — one extra product at checkout changes your economics.

Guarantees, shipping policies, or testimonials shown where buyers second-guess themselves.
Compliance / disclosure
Age gates, subscription disclosures, regional policies — handled natively.

Implementation
- Rotating testimonial widget in checkout sidebar
- Pull from your existing review platform or custom entries
- Star ratings, customer photos, and verified badges
- Mobile-optimised layout
FAQ
Quick answers.
Do I need Shopify Plus?+
Most Checkout UI Extensions work on all Shopify plans. A few customisations (full function modification) require Plus — we'll tell you upfront which category your project falls in.
Will Shopify updates break this?+
No. Checkout UI Extensions are Shopify's officially supported extensibility API — they're future-proof by design.
Can I edit the text myself later?+
Yes. All copy lives in theme settings or the admin — no dev needed for text edits.
