Bird Checkout Rules lets you hide, rename and sort payment methods and delivery options, block checkout, and add discounts, based on the cart, the customer and the address. This article takes you from install to your first live rule.

Add your first rule

  1. Install the app from the Shopify App Store and open it from your Shopify admin.
  2. On Home, open the Setup guide and select Add your first rule.
  3. Pick a template card, such as Hide Cash on Delivery over an amount, or select All templates to see the rest. You can also describe the rule in your own words and let Ask Bird draft it.
  4. The rule opens with the template filled in. Finish any empty field, such as the payment method or the amount.
  5. Select Save.

Test it

  1. Select Test checkout.
  2. Add products, a customer and an address.
  3. Under At checkout, see what customers would get, and open Why, rule by rule to see why each rule applies or not.

Turn it on

  1. Select Review & publish in the You have unpublished changes banner.
  2. Check the changes, then select Publish (the button shows how many changes) and confirm.

Customers see the rule at checkout within a minute.

Keep editing later

Every edit is saved as a draft. Customers keep seeing your live rules until you publish again. To go back to an earlier version, use History.
