Uninstalling

Updated yesterday

If you need to uninstall Checkout Links, here's what you need to know.

How to Uninstall

  1. Go to Settings > Apps and sales channels in your Shopify admin

  2. Find Checkout Links in the list

  3. Click Uninstall

  4. Confirm the uninstallation

What Happens When You Uninstall

Checkout Links is designed for a clean uninstall:

  • All checkout links stop working — Customers who click existing links will see a 404 page

  • No permanent store modifications — The app doesn't make lasting changes to your theme or store configuration

  • Order data remains — Any orders placed through checkout links are still in your Shopify admin with their full details

  • Attribution metafields persist — Order metafields (like UTM tracking data) remain on past orders

  • Your subscription is cancelled — Billing stops through Shopify's billing system

Before You Uninstall

Consider these steps before uninstalling:

  1. Remove links where you've shared them — If you have active links in emails, SMS, or other channels, they'll stop working immediately. Consider updating your marketing materials first.

  2. Update QR codes — Any printed QR codes pointing to checkout links will stop working

Reinstalling

If you reinstall Checkout Links later, you may need to go through the setup process again. Your previous links and settings may not be preserved.
