Best Delivery Date Picker for Shopify Plus Checkout

Shopify Plus gives brands more control at checkout — but when it comes to delivery dates, the built-in options still fall short.

If you sell food, furniture, flowers, or anything where timing matters, you’ve probably run into one or more of these problems:

• Customers can’t choose their delivery date at checkout

• You’re showing vague ETAs like “3–5 business days”

• Delivery rules are managed manually (cutoffs, locations, lead times)

• You’re flooded with support tickets: “Can I get this by Friday?”

• Your current date picker is unreliable, breaks with Checkout Extensibility, or can’t handle complex logic

For Shopify Plus brands, this isn’t just a UX issue — it’s a revenue and retention one.

💡 Why Delivery Dates at Checkout Matter

On Shopify Plus, you control more of the checkout — but most third-party date pickers still:

• Live on the cart page (not checkout)

• Can’t adjust based on customer location or shipping method

• Don’t support Checkout Extensibility (Shopify’s new standard)

That means one of your biggest conversion levers is missing.

Brands that add delivery dates to checkout consistently see:

✅ Higher conversion
✅ Lower abandonment
✅ Fewer support tickets
✅ Fewer missed or failed deliveries
