In short: 1. Open your theme's code editor, then `layout/theme.liquid`. 2. Find the `` line and add a new line below it. 3. Paste the snippet the panel gives you. It renders Shopify's accelerated-checkout buttons in a hidden container, so the cart has something to clone. 4. Save. ## Settings | Setting | What it controls | Default | | ----------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------- | | **Default button height** | The button height on desktop, in pixels. | `42` | | **Mobile button height** | The button height on mobile, in pixels. | `42` | | **Checkout button alignment** | `left`, `center`, `right`, or `space-between`. Applies only when the buttons fit on one row. | `center` | | **Row gap** | Vertical spacing between rows, in pixels. Applies only when the buttons wrap onto more than one row. | `8` | ## Placement and limits * **Region:** bottom. * **Maximum:** 1 per cart state. * **State:** filled cart only. * Not added by default. Not locked — you can remove or hide it. ## Custom template The Express payments block does **not** support a custom template, because it hosts Shopify's own payment buttons. Style it with the block's Design settings instead. ## Design Style this block with its **Design** section in the settings panel. These are per-block overrides that layer on top of your global design and fall back to it when blank. What are design settings? Learn more here: [Design settings](/aftersell/cart/design-settings).
