Remove 'Powered by Shopify' from your online store

You can remove the "Powered by Shopify" message if you don't want it to appear in your store.

Edit the default theme content

  1. From the Shopify app, tap the button.
  2. In the Sales channels section, tap Online Store.
  3. Tap Manage themes.
  4. Find the theme that you want to edit, and then tap ... > Edit default theme content.
  5. In the Filter items search box, enter powered. This will bring up both the Powered by Shopify and Powered by Shopify HTML boxes.
  6. In the Powered by Shopify box, enter a single space. The faded placeholder text in the box disappears. If your store is password-protected, then you can repeat this step for the Powered by Shopify HTML box, which appears on your store's Opening soon page.
  7. Click Save.

Edit the theme code

If the "Powered by Shopify" message is still displayed in the footer after you update the default theme content, then you might need to modify the theme code.

  2. In the Sales channels section, tap Online Store.
  3. Tap Manage all themes.
  4. Find the theme that you want to edit, and then tap ... > Edit code.
  5. Locate the following Liquid tag and delete it:
