Shopify is making technical changes to its platform that require all merchants to update their Affirm payment app so they don’t lose access to Affirm.
Note: The Affirm Payment App (Pay-Over-Time Messaging app) is not to be confused with the Affirm Settings integration. If you are using the Affirm Pay-Over-Time Messaging App, please do NOT remove it; simply disable the integration with Settings.
Time Required: 10 minutes
Connect new payment app
Installing the new payment app is essential to ensuring your customers can continue to checkout with Affirm. See Connecting the Affirm Payments App.
Note: If your Shopify store location is set outside of the US, see special instructions.
Deactivate existing payment app
Deactivation of the existing/old app is very straightforward and can be done with just a few clicks. This will ensure the old payment app is removed before offering our updated version to your customers. You’ll be accessing Affirm within your payment settings and deactivating the app with the click of a button.
For details, see Uninstall the Affirm Payment Method.
