Upgrading your Thank You page and Order Status pages WILL impact tracking in Northbeam

Our Purchase Event script is placed on the Order Status page to track conversions on Shopify’s native checkout. You'll need to add a new script to the Customer Events.

If you've upgraded your Thank You and Order Status pages, reference the directions below.

(Note: If you've only upgraded your Information, Shipping, and Payment pages -- no action is needed)

📘

Not sure if your Thank You and Order Status pages are upgraded?

If Additional Scripts in the Order Status Page section is missing or greyed out, this means your Thank You and Order Status pages are upgraded.

1. Log into your Shopify account
2. Click Settings
3. Click Checkout
4. Find the section called Order Status Page and reference the Additional Scripts field
5. If this field is missing or greyed out, your Thank You and Order Status pages are upgraded.

Checkout Extensibility Overview

As of February 2023, Shopify began phasing out checkout.liquid in favor of a more modern and secure framework called Checkout Extensibility. This new approach is app-based, upgrade-safe, and designed to improve performance and flexibility across the checkout experience.

Key Upgrade Deadlines:

Shopify Plus Stores (Official Shopify Documentation)

• August 28, 2025- Deadline to upgrade your Thank You and Order Status pages. This includes migrating any customizations made with script tags or additional scripts to the new Checkout Extensibility framework.

Non-Plus Shopify Stores (Official Shopify Documentation)

• August 26, 2026 - Deadline to upgrade Thank You and Order Status pages to their extensible versions for stores on standard (non-Plus) Shopify plans.

🚧

Have you ONLY upgraded your Information, Shipping, and Payment Pages?

No action needed! Your Order Status Page field should still be available. If so, keep using our legacy Order Status Page script.
