Install BlockCart through Shopify, then use the home page to find your setup steps, rules, and support chat.
Install and open BlockCart
- Find BlockCart on the Shopify App Store and select Install.
- Approve the permissions Shopify asks for. BlockCart then opens in Shopify Admin under Apps.
Follow the setup guide
The Setup guide has two steps: Subscribe to a plan and Create a rule. It shows your progress as each step is completed. Select Add plan to see the available subscriptions. Once your subscription is active, that button reads View plan.
Select Create rule to choose your first rule. If you already have one, the button reads Create another rule. You can collapse or dismiss the guide when you no longer need it.
Find and manage your rules
The Rules table shows checkout and payment rules together. Each row has Name, Status, Sync, and Actions. Status shows Off, Test, or Live. A badge beside the name identifies Cart and checkout validation or Payment customization. Checkout rule rows offer edit and delete actions. Payment rule rows offer Go live or Turn off, Duplicate, Sync, edit, and delete actions. Deleting either type of rule asks for confirmation.
If you have no rules, the home page shows Create your first rule with Create new rule and Import rules buttons. Below the table, Active rules and Total rules show your counts.
Create a rule
Select Create new rule at the top of the home page. A dialog opens where you can choose Cart and checkout validation to set requirements that can stop an order, or Payment customization to change payment choices in Shopify checkout. See the related guides for the fields and save steps.
Good to know
You need an active BlockCart subscription to create or save rules. You can still open the app without one. See Development stores: what works and what doesn't and Plans and pricing: monthly vs yearly for details.
For help, go to the bottom of the home page and select We're here to help under Need support or have any questions?. This opens support chat.
