How to Change Fonts & Typography on Shopify Checkout
What you will achieve in this guide
Follow the feature-specific setup and testing instructions below. Check the supported pages and plan requirements before activating the feature.
Rivio’s advanced branding module adjusts checkout colors, corner radius, typography, and supported account/sign-in appearance on Shopify Plus.
How this feature works
Checkout branding follows the selected checkout configuration. Check which configuration is Published before saving because changes to the published configuration affect live checkout. Account and sign-in appearance settings in the Customer accounts section apply shop-wide rather than being isolated by checkout profile.
Before you begin
Use an eligible Shopify Plus store. Open Apps > Rivio Checkout Customizer and check the feature’s listed supported page. For a visual feature, configure it in Rivio and save its matching editor placement.
Worked example: Set readable typography for real checkout content
Example setup: Shopify Plus and products with short and long names.
Step-by-step instructions
Open Checkout branding and select the intended configuration.
Open Typography and choose a font from the supported list.
Review base size and scale ratio; begin with readable values instead of shrinking content to fit.
Inspect headings, labels, prices, long product names, and a validation message in the preview.
Save and test the actual checkout on desktop and a phone.
Check another supported shopper language if your store uses it, particularly for longer labels.
Verify the result
| Test case | Expected result or verification |
|---|---|
| Long product name | It remains readable without hiding relevant information. |
| Phone checkout | Inputs and prices are legible. |
| Different language | Longer text still fits and the supported font renders correctly. |
If the result is different
| Check | What it means / what to do |
|---|---|
| Changes not visible | Check the saved value and the checkout configuration the shopper actually uses. |
| Wrong area changed | Review main/order-summary schemes and checkout versus account/sign-in settings separately. |
| Text is difficult to read | Test the affected controls, long labels, and error states on desktop and a phone before saving further changes. |
