Add Cash App Afterpay at Checkout
Before you start, ensure that you have Shopify installed and working.
The Shopify App Store listing and app logo will reflect the new Cash App Afterpay brand, while the payment app itself continues to be called Afterpay US. Your customers will see the updated branding at checkout.
