Shopify Scripts Deprecation Set for June 30, 2026

Shopify announces the deprecation of Shopify Scripts, with the platform ending support on June 30, 2026. The company plans to replace Scripts functionality with enhanced Shopify Functions capabilities across discounts, shipping, and payments.

Migration Path to Shopify Functions

Shopify Functions will receive new features designed to replicate the custom logic previously built with Scripts. The platform now offers a Shopify Scripts customizations report to help merchants and developers inventory their current Scripts implementations and plan migrations to Shopify Functions or public APIs.

Impact on App Developers

Developers maintaining apps that rely on Shopify Scripts face a two-year migration window. This affects apps using Scripts for:

• Custom discount logic
• Shipping rate calculations
• Payment method customizations

Apps built on Shopify Functions use WebAssembly modules that run on Shopify’s infrastructure, offering better performance and scalability compared to the Ruby-based Scripts system. However, the development workflow differs significantly from Scripts.

Planning Considerations

Developers should audit their current Scripts implementations using the customizations report. Some Scripts functionality may map directly to Shopify Functions, while other use cases might require alternative solutions through Shopify’s public APIs.

The extended deprecation timeline provides adequate time for migration planning, but developers with complex Scripts deployments should begin evaluation now. Shopify has not yet detailed which specific Functions capabilities will launch before the June 2026 deadline.
