When running a Shopify store, you may find yourself wanting to hide cash-on-delivery payments for orders over a certain amount, “hide bank transfers or convenience store payments for pre-order items,” or “do not display certain payment methods to guest customers.”
In such cases, using a Shopify app that can automatically hide payment methods based on conditions, makes it easier to implement checkout that matches the store’s operational rules.
In this article, we will introduce three Shopify apps available in Japanese that allow you to hide payment methods on the Shopify checkout page. We also compare pricing plans, hiding conditions such as order amount, product, and customer conditions, and customization features other than payment methods, so please use this as a reference when choosing an app.
What does it mean to hide payment methods?
In this article, "hiding payment methods" refers to automatically hiding the payment methods displayed on the checkout page of your Shopify store when certain conditions are met, such as "Hide Cash on Delivery when the total amount in the cart exceeds 3,000 yen."
Example: hiding Cash on Delivery when the total amount is 3,000 yen or more
The YouTube video below shows an example using the Shopify app "RuffRuff Order Limits", which is introduced later.The Cash on Delivery payment option on the checkout page is set to be automatically hidden when the total amount in the cart exceeds 3,000 yen.
3 Shopify apps available in Japanese that can hide payment methods
RuffRuff Order Limits
"RuffRuff Order Limits" is a Shopify app that supports Japanese. We use the Cart and Checkout Validation API, and can process order restrictions on the server side.
This makes it easier to implement order restrictions that are less likely to be circumvented than when controlled only from the front end.
We support a wide range of order restrictions, including quantity rules, price rules, weight rules, bundle rules, customer rules, access rules, payment rules, and delivery rules.
When it comes to payment methods, you can hide any payment methods based on criteria such as cart weight, amount, specific products, or specific customers.

Kakureru Pay (カクレルペイ) is a Shopify app that allows you to customize payment methods on the checkout page.
Supports Japanese, and allows you to hide, rearrange, and rename payment methods according to conditions such as specific Customer tags, product tags, and total cart amount.
