Managing rules

In short

All Rules shows everything you have built. Filter by method type, toggle a rule between Active and Draft, edit it, or delete it. Only Active rules run at checkout.

Applies to

  • All Shopify plans
  • Payment and shipping rules, standard and advanced

Doesn't apply to

  • Shopify POS

The list

All Rules shows everything you have built, with tabs for Active Rules and All Rules so you can see at a glance what is actually running.

Each row shows the rule name, its action, whether it is payment or shipping, its type, and its status.

Row actions

  • Edit — opens the rule. Clicking anywhere on the row does the same.
  • Toggle status — flips between Active and Draft without opening it.
  • Delete — permanent, with a confirmation first.
  • Export rule — downloads it as JSON. See import & export.

Delete cannot be undone

There is no archive and no bin. If a rule might be needed again, toggle it to Draft instead — it stops applying at checkout but stays on the list. Or export it first.

Standard and Advanced

Rules built in the current editor are Standard. Rules from the earlier advanced editor show as Advanced, and open there for editing — the row tooltip says so.

Both run at checkout the same way. The distinction is only about which editor built the rule.

Keeping the list readable

Names are what you will navigate by once there are more than a handful. Hide COD over $500 (BR only) tells you what it does a year later; Rule 4 does not. Rename anything that has drifted — it costs nothing and the name is the only thing shown in the list.

Frequently asked

What is the difference between Standard and Advanced?

Standard rules are built in the current editor. Advanced ones use the legacy editor for more complex logic, and are filtered separately as Adv. Payment and Adv. Shipping.

Does deleting a rule affect past orders?

No. Rules only affect what appears at checkout going forward. Orders already placed are untouched.

How many rules can I have?

The app does not cap the total, but your plan may cap it per method type, and Shopify allows 25 active customizations per type across all apps.
