Customizing delivery methods in Checkout Blocks

Plan requirement

Creating a delivery method customization using Checkout Blocks is available only to merchants on the Shopify Plus plan.

Checkout Blocks lets you customize delivery methods in checkout in the following ways:

• Hide delivery methods: Conditionally hide delivery methods based on a number of cart rules, such as minimum cart totals, shipping destination, or delivery method.
• Rename delivery methods: Rename delivery methods, including adding a prefix or suffix.
• Reorder delivery methods: Rearrange delivery methods alphabetically, by cost, or manually.

Considerations for customizing delivery methods

Before you create a delivery customization, review the following considerations:

• You can have up to 5 delivery customizations active at one time across all apps.
• Hiding shipping methods is the only customization type that supports conditional rules.
• Hiding the local delivery and pickup in store methods aren't supported. However, you can hide individual local delivery options or pickup locations.
• When renaming carrier-provided rates, be aware that Shopify automatically prepends the carrier name to renamed rates. For example, "UPS Standard" renamed to "Express Shipping" will display as "UPS Express Shipping" at checkout.
