Shopify announced Managed Payment Methods, a feature that will automatically enable and display local payment methods at checkout for stores using Shopify Payments, with no additional fees beyond standard Shopify Payments rates and no third-party integration required. Which payment methods appear and in what order will be determined dynamically by Shopify Network Intelligence using signals like buyer location, purchase history, and local payment trends, with the goal of showing each shopper their most preferred and most likely-to-convert payment option. The feature enables automatically on May 27, though Shopify is advising merchants to review any existing payment method sorting customizations before that date as they may break, and merchants can disable individual methods or the entire feature in Settings under Payments.
