There is the fact that Shopify themes, which are free of charge, all do include the option to display payment icons in the footer. Those icons displayed are determined by the payment settings of your store, and able to be enabled in the theme editor. In case you want to add or delete payment icons while not changing your payment settings, then you are allowed to do so by modifying your theme code.

However, please keep reading our instructional writing on How to modify the code for your payment icons to know more deeply about this topic.

Specifically, we are going to configure how payment icons are assigned to the footer.
