When you uninstall Bird Shipping & Delivery Rates, its rates and checkout changes stop at once. Your own Shopify rates stay as they are. Prepare first so customers still see a price.
Prepare before you uninstall
- Go to Settings, then Markets & backup rates.
- Check that every market has a rate under Backup rates. If one shows None. Add one in Shopify, select Edit in Shopify and add a shipping rate.
- If you might come back, go to Rates, select More actions, then Export to save your rates as a CSV file.
- Uninstall the app from Apps in your Shopify admin.
What happens after you uninstall
- Shopify removes the app’s rates and delivery customizations from checkout. Customers see your other Shopify rates.
- Your Shopify rates and settings don’t change.
- Your app data is kept for about 48 hours, then deleted. If you reinstall within that time, your rates come back.
Come back later
- Install the app again.
- Go to Rates, select More actions, then Import, and choose your CSV file.
- Select Review & publish to turn the rates on.
