How to customize your Shopify checkout.

1. Open the configuration. In Shopify admin, go to Settings → Checkout. Under Configurations, select Edit for the configuration you want to change.
2. Open styling controls. Use Settings in the checkout and accounts editor. Select your logo and adjust its size and alignment.
3. Set colors and fonts. Configure backgrounds, buttons and accent colors, then choose heading and body fonts. Review text contrast in the preview.
4. Choose your layout. Select one-page or three-page checkout under Checkout layout. Save, then visit the storefront checkout to see the updated layout.
5. Check mobile discount visibility. In Sections → Order summary, consider Always show discount code field if customers need to locate it more easily.
6. Test the purchase journey. Use an appropriate test order to check shipping, discounts, taxes, payment and confirmation on mobile and desktop before changing your active configuration.
