Adding a shipping address

Adding a shipping address

In this help article, we’ll cover adding a shipping address to your checkout using custom fields.

Your customer's shipping address

Adding custom fields to your one page checkout makes it easy to capture your customer’s shipping address.

There are two options for adding a shipping address to your checkout:

  1. Adding custom fields and assigning data types (recommended)
  2. Adding custom fields only

Data types

Data types are used to store custom field data (your customer responses) in a structured manner.

For example, if you wanted to capture your customer's name, assigning the data type of Customer name means we can structure this data appropriately.

This is especially useful when connecting Checkout Page with other apps using our Zapier integration.

Adding a shipping address with custom fields and assigning data types

You can add a shipping address with multiple custom fields or a single custom field:

  • Multiple custom fields, each with the appropriate shipping address data type assigned to them (recommended)
  • A single custom field with the Shipping address data type assigned to it

The advantage of using multiple custom fields is that your customer’s shipping address data will have more structure and will be easier to use.

Multiple custom fields

  1. Under the Fields tab, click Add custom field

2. Select a Text field from the dropdown
