How to Replace the Default Shopify “Checkout” Button with GoKwik Checkout

Introduction

By default, when customers click the Checkout button in the cart, they are redirected to Shopify’s standard checkout page.

If you are using GoKwik (Kwik COD & Checkout), you can change this behavior so that customers are redirected to GoKwik’s checkout instead. This is particularly useful for improving conversion rates, especially for cash-on-delivery (COD) orders.

You can configure this directly within the Snap Cart Drawer app in a few simple steps.

Setup Guide

Step 1: Open Cart Customization

Go to Shopify Admin
Open the Snap Cart Drawer app
Click Customize

Step 2: Navigate to the Checkout Section

In the left-hand menu, select Cart
Scroll to the Cart footer
Click on Checkout section

This section controls how the checkout button behaves.

Step 3: Enable GoKwik Checkout

In the Checkout behavior settings:

Select: Third-party checkout
From the dropdown menu, choose: Kwik COD & Checkout

Once selected, the checkout button will redirect customers to GoKwik instead of Shopify.

Step 4: (Optional) Customize the Checkout Button Text

You can update the button label if needed. For example:

Checkout - {{total_price}}

This allows you to display the total price directly on the checkout button.

Result

After completing the setup:

Customers open the cart drawer
Click the Checkout button
They are redirected to the GoKwik checkout instead of Shopify’s default checkout

Important Notes

Ensure that GoKwik app is installed and properly activated
If GoKwik is not correctly set up, a warning may appear and the checkout button may not function as expected
Confirm that the GoKwik app is fully connected to your store

Best Practice

Use clear and descriptive button text such as:

“Checkout with GoKwik”
“Cash on Delivery Checkout”

This helps customers better understand the checkout experience, especially when COD is enabled.
