How To Deactivate a Manual Payment Method on Shopify
If you decide to stop accepting a certain type of manual payment, you can easily deactivate it in Shopify. This can be useful if a payment method is no longer relevant to your business.
Steps to Deactivate a Manual Payment Method:
-
Step 1: From your Shopify admin, go to
Settings
>Payments
. -
Step 2: In the Manual payment methods section, find the payment method you wish to deactivate. Click
Edit
.
- Step 3: Click the
Deactivate payment method
button. Confirm your choice by clickingDeactivate
again. This will remove the payment method from your checkout options.
Important Notes:
-
Once a manual payment method is deactivated, customers will no longer see it as an option during checkout. However, it doesn’t delete any past orders associated with that method.
-
If you ever need to reactivate the payment method, simply select it again from the
Manual payment methods
dropdown in the same section. -
The process for deactivating custom manual payment methods is the same as for Shopify’s suggested methods.
Bottom Line
Deactivating a manual payment method on Shopify is a quick and easy process that allows you to streamline your checkout and optimize your business operations. Remember, you can always reactivate or add new payment methods as your business evolves.
