EXPECTED SETUP TIME 5-10 Minutes
COMPATIBILITY All Shopify Themes & Plans
TECHNICAL DIFFICULTY Zero Code Required
1

Open Rivio Checkout Customizer

From your store's Shopify Admin, navigate to Apps and launch Rivio Checkout Customizer. If you haven't installed the app yet, visit the Shopify App Store and add it to your store.

Shopify Admin → Apps → Rivio Checkout Customizer

The dashboard provides an immediate overview of active rules, execution telemetry, and checkout performance metrics across all connected sales channels.

2

Open the Getting Started Page

Once inside the app dashboard, review the guided setup sequence. We recommend completing the initial environment verification checklist before deploying custom rules:

✓ Activate Theme App Extension: Enables checkout app blocks and widget integration
✓ Verify Checkout Permissions: Ensure write permissions for checkout functions are authorized
✓ Launch Test Sandbox: Simulate rules in safe mode before publishing to live checkouts
3

Explore Payment & Shipping Customizations

Navigate to Rules & Logic to configure conditional rules that dynamically modify payment and delivery methods. Rivio provides three core rule actions:

Hide

Hide Gateways

Hide payment or shipping options based on cart total, tags, or risk scores.

Reorder

Reorder Options

Prioritize high-conversion or lower-cost processing gateways at checkout.

Rename

Rename Titles

%
Threshold Tier Discounts:

Apply tiered percentage discounts as order thresholds are crossed.

✂
Coupon Code Stacking Rules:

Prevent discount abuse by defining strict combination criteria with native coupons.

🔒
B2B Account Restrictions:

Limit wholesale tier pricing to verified customer company profiles.

For Shopify Plus merchants, enable native Shopify Functions to run conditional execution with 0ms server latency directly on Shopify's global edge network.

⚡
100% Native Shopify Functions Integration

All logic executes directly within Shopify's checkout engine. No external API calls, zero third-party downtime, and no delay to checkout page rendering.

6

Explore Checkout Blocks

Enhance your checkout interface with modular UI extensions built for Checkout Extensibility. Easily drag and drop into any checkout position:

🏷️ Cart Badges
📦 Delivery Notes
🎁 Free Order Bumps
⚡ Express Banners
📝 Metafield Fields
💳 Payment Badges
7

Add App Blocks in Your Shopify Checkout

Open your Shopify theme editor, navigate to Checkout, and click Add Block to insert Rivio blocks into your one-page or 3-step checkout:

1

Open your Shopify Theme Editor and select Checkout from the page selector.

2

Locate the section where you want to insert the block (e.g., Payment Methods or Shipping).

3

Click Add Block and select the desired Rivio Checkout Customizer component.

4

Configure block settings in the right sidebar (copy, styling, condition rules) and click Save.

⚠️
IMPORTANT: Checkout Extensibility Required

Ensure your store is running on Shopify Checkout Extensibility. Legacy checkout.liquid is deprecated by Shopify and will not execute modern Functions.

8

Configure Customer Account Positions

Choose which customer types see custom checkout fields, gift notes, or payment rules during the checkout sequence:

Guest Checkouts Enabled
Logged-in Customers Only
Verified B2B Companies
9

Customize Checkout Styling

Match Rivio checkout elements seamlessly to your brand palette without writing custom code:

Native Theme Integration

Components inherit typography, colors, and button radii directly from your Shopify theme settings.

Custom CSS Overrides

Fine-tune colors, spacing, and micro-interactions for bespoke enterprise checkouts.

10

Review Your Analytics

Monitor rule execution metrics, conversion lift, and customer interaction telemetry directly inside your Rivio dashboard:

✓ Verify rules in Shopify Theme Customizer preview mode
✓ Simulate a test order with a matching cart condition
✓ Confirm that disabled payment methods disappear instantly with zero lag
✓ Check that order metafields and custom fields are properly stored in order records
