View SmartCheckout Pro Best For SmartCheckout is useful if you want to:

• Rename checkout labels for your store language or brand
• Hide optional fields that are not needed
• Simplify the WooCommerce checkout page
• Make selected fields required or optional
• Improve the checkout experience without custom code

Compatibility SmartCheckout works best with the classic WooCommerce checkout shortcode. When Checkout Blocks are detected, SmartCheckout can help switch the checkout page to classic checkout and save a backup of the previous block layout. The optional modern classic checkout style is disabled by default and can be turned on or off from the SmartCheckout screen. It may not match every theme perfectly, especially sites with heavily customized checkout templates or third-party checkout replacement plugins.
