8. App details
Long-form descriptionEsse Checkout Customize Upsell
Checkout page customization without code. Hide, rename and reorder payment and shipping methods, validate checkout fields and set order limits, with a block or a warning in your own words. Create checkout discounts: product, order, Buy X Get Y and free shipping, or refuse codes that shouldn’t apply. Add checkout blocks: a free shipping bar, plus upsell offers and banners on the Thank you page. Target any rule with AND/OR conditions on cart, customer, address and market, or start from a template.
Gizmo
Shopify tracks inventory per variant, so a 200-unit run must be split across variants before you know what sells. Set one number instead and every variant draws from the same inventory pool. When the cap is hit, the product locks and shows sold out. It counts units from real orders, not your Shopify stock, so the cap holds during a rush and even when inventory is untracked. For limited edition drops, fixed-run editions, made to order, daily production batches, and rentals with duration variants.
