To integrate a dynamic payment button on your Webflow site that redirects to Shopify Checkout, you'll need to use Shopify's Buy Button sales channel and dynamically adjust it based on user interaction.
---
1. Set Up Shopify Buy Button
- Log in to Shopify Admin and go to Settings > Apps and sales channels.
- Click "Buy Button", or install it if not already added.
- Select Create a Buy Button, then choose a Single Product or Collection.
- In the customization page, style the button (optional), then Generate Code.
- Copy the JavaScript snippet provided.

2. Embed Static Button in Webflow
- In Webflow, go to the page or component where you want to place the payment button.
- Use an Embed element (from the Add panel).
- Paste the Shopify JS snippet into the Embed element.
Note: This creates a static Buy Button. To make it dynamic for different products, proceed to the next step.

3. Make the Button Dynamic via Webflow CMS
- Create a CMS Collection in Webflow (e.g., Products).
- Add fields for:
- Product Title
- Product Image
- Shopify Product ID
- Any additional variant info
- In your CMS Collection Page or List, use a Dynamic Embed element (in a Collection Item).
Example Setup:
- Inside the Embed element, insert
{{wf {fieldName} }} to inject the dynamic Product ID. - Modify Shopify’s embed code to use dynamic JS to refer to each product using the stored product ID.
Note: Since Shopify’s Buy Button code is not designed to accept just a Product ID from outside, you typically need to either:
- Create separate Buy Buttons for each product in Shopify, copy the embed codes, and paste them into your Webflow CMS items via a Rich Text or Embed field.
- Redirect users to the Shopify Checkout via custom links, which leads to the next method.

4. Use Shopify Checkout URL for Direct Redirect
- You can skip the Buy Button and instead create a direct Shopify checkout link.
- Format:
https://[yourshop].myshopify.com/cart/[variant_id]:1
Example:
https://yourstore.myshopify.com/cart/1234567890:1
- In Webflow CMS:
- Add a field for Shopify Variant ID (number).
- Use a Webflow Link Block or Button, and bind the href like this:
https://yourstore.myshopify.com/cart/{{wf {variant_id} }}:1
This creates a dynamic Buy Now button that redirects directly to Shopify Checkout with the correct item and quantity.
---
5. Optional: Add Quantity or Variant Selection
- Webflow CMS doesn’t support dynamic variant selectors out-of-the-box.
- You can:
- Build a custom form in Webflow with dropdowns or radios for options.
- Use custom JavaScript to read those values and modify the checkout URL accordingly on click.

Summary
To integrate a dynamic Shopify payment button on Webflow:
- Use Shopify Buy Buttons for visual embeds (less dynamic).
- Or create direct Shopify Checkout URLs using stored variant IDs for lightweight, dynamic Buy Now buttons.
- Use Webflow CMS fields and dynamic routing to personalize each product’s checkout link.
For most use cases, using Shopify Checkout URLs is faster and more scalable in Webflow.
