What earns each verdict

Same outcomes on every UXFix rule · how verdicts work
✓ Pass15

At least one express wallet button visible.

~ Partial2

Present but non-functional (SDK load fails).

✕ Fail22

No express wallet options.

not assessable is recorded when the rule applied but the store could not be judged on it (bot protection, a region lock, a step we could not reach), and not applicable when the store has nothing for the rule to judge. Those stores are left out of every number on this page, never guessed. Why we do that
Why it matters

The cart doesn't offer any express wallet button (Apple Pay, Google Pay, Shop Pay, PayPal Express).

Express wallets skip 60-80% of the checkout form. Shop Pay alone lifts checkout completion by ~1.7x. On mobile especially, one tap vs six form fields is the biggest single conversion lever left in ecommerce.

The fix

The same steps a failing store sees in its report

A pass means: At least one express wallet button visible.

Severity
High
Score gain
+1.3pts
Page
Cart

Score gain is roughly what a fail-to-pass change adds; rules that could not be judged are left out, which can move it a little. Re-run a free audit after the change ships to confirm the verdict moved.

Checklist for the pass
0 of 3

Tick each step as you ship it. The audit judges the live store, so re-run it once all of them are done.

What our auditors say about this rule

An express wallet is a checkout the shopper has already filled in. Leaving it out asks them to type what their phone already knows.
