Shopify Checkout runs on Shopify-controlled infrastructure, which means most third-party scanners can't (or don't bother to) audit it. That's a problem — because plaintiff firms know exactly where the unlabeled fields and contrast failures are hiding.
What we test in checkout
Every step from cart to thank-you page.
- Cart drawer + cart page
- Information, shipping, payment steps
- Express checkout buttons (Shop Pay, Apple Pay, Google Pay)
- Discount codes and gift card inputs
- Order status and post-purchase pages
