Customizing the checkout experience can have a significant impact on customer satisfaction and conversion rates. With the latest update to Gold Star Pro's ecommerce functionality, you can now make specific shipping detail fields hidden, optional, or mandatory. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you tailor the shipping section to fit your store's needs.

Why Customizable Shipping Fields Matter

Every ecommerce business is unique, and so are its requirements for shipping information. Whether you're selling digital products that don't require shipping or physical goods that need full delivery details, this update allows you to:

• Simplify the checkout process for customers by collecting only relevant information.

• Reduce cart abandonment by streamlining data entry.

• Adapt to your business needs with tailored shipping field options.

Shipping Fields You Can Customize

You can adjust the following fields in the shipping section:

• Phone Number

• Address

• Country

• State

• City

• ZIP/Postal Code

How to Customize Shipping Fields

Follow these steps to customize the shipping fields on your checkout page:

1. Navigate to the Checkout Page Settings:
   Open the ecommerce settings section in your Gold Star Pro account.

2. Locate the Shipping Fields Customization Option:
   Find the section for shipping details and select the fields you want to modify.

   

3. Adjust Field Visibility and Requirements:
   For each field (e.g., phone number, address), choose one of the following options:

   • Hidden: The field won’t appear on the checkout page. Ideal for digital product sales where no shipping is needed.

   • Mandatory: Customers must complete the field to proceed with checkout.

4. Save Changes and Test the Checkout Process:
   Preview your updated checkout page to ensure everything functions as expected.
