Styling the Checkout Page

  1. Navigate to Pages panel > System Pages > Checkout
  2. Use style tweaks to customize:
    • Background Color
    • Site Logo Display
    • Title Color
    • Header Color and Border
    • Header Alignment (Left, Center, Right)
    • Button Color (avoid transparent or white)

  • Fixed white background and standard font
  • Cannot be customized in Site Styles

Order Confirmation Page (Subscriptions, Gift Cards, and Memberships):

  • Shows "Order Confirmed" text and order number
  • Matches site styles
  • Styling follows these conventions:
    • "Order confirmed" text: Follows Heading 1
    • Order number/confirmation text: Follows Paragraph 2
    • Download information: Follows Heading 3

Additional Customization Options

You can further enhance the checkout experience by:

  • Enabling Apple Pay
  • Adding gift message fields
  • Including delivery instructions
  • Displaying terms and policies
  • Adding newsletter subscription options

Note: Header content modifications are limited, but version 7.0 templates (Avenue, Farro, Five, Wexley, York) display content from default 404 pages on order confirmation pages.
