Your storefront. Not their checkout tax.

Shopify Checkout is familiar — and expensive once you leave Shopify Payments or need real customization. Checkivo keeps Shopify for catalog and ops, then runs your own one-page Stripe checkout: 0% platform fee, editable sections, every local method.

Own the checkout

One page on Stripe — trust, upsells and local methods in your flow.

Keep Shopify for your storefront. Leave the Shopify Payments fee stack — and the generic checkout — behind.

Honest fit

Not every merchant should switch. Here’s the clean split.

Choose them if

  • You want the default Shopify experience and primarily run Shopify Payments in markets where that converts.
  • Checkout customization is not a priority and you’re willing to stay on Plus if you ever need it.

Choose Checkivo if

  • You want a branded one-page checkout with trust, reviews and upsells — without Plus.
  • You process subscriptions with local European methods and refuse to pay Shopify Payments rates just to stay locked into checkout.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does switching mean leaving Shopify?

No. Keep Shopify for your storefront, catalog and ops. Checkivo runs the checkout and recurring billing on Stripe.

Will I still pay Stripe processing?

Yes — processing is always there. What you drop is the Shopify platform fee and the subscription-app revenue cut on Checkivo checkouts.

How fast can we go live?

Most merchants install the Shopify app, connect Stripe, and launch a Checkivo checkout in days — not a quarter-long replatform.
