Previous Button Customization

Our enhanced platform renders the Bread buttons differently. Previously configured CSS in the old Bread App may not apply to the new buttons. If you have any custom CSS it is recommended that you copy it from the old App now and save it locally. You may need to reference the previous CSS when styling the new button.

Adding Bread to the Checkout Page
Navigate back to the General Settings and scroll down to Payment Method.

In the Method drop down select the Payment Method that Bread Pay™ will replace. If possible, select the same method that you had used and configured for the old app. Enter your desired Payment Label and then click Save. The Payment Label should be "Bread Pay™" or "Buy Now Pay Later with Bread Pay™", alternative configurations may require compliance approval. If you need to setup and configure a new payment method, follow the integration steps found here.
