Shopify Checkout is hosted separately from your theme. It doesn’t read settings_schema.json, doesn’t load your theme’s CSS, and doesn’t render Liquid. To make it look like Voyager you configure it in Settings → Checkout → Customize. The good news: Shopify Checkout’s branding API exposes everything Voyager needs — colors, typography, logo, corner radius, form field style. The values below produce a Checkout that reads as a continuous extension of the storefront.

Where to set everything

1

Open Checkout customization

Shopify admin → SettingsCheckoutCustomize (top right).
2

Pick the right checkout profile

Most stores have one profile. If you have multiple (e.g., Shopify Plus draft orders), each one needs its own branding.
3

Walk the panels left-to-right

Brand assetsColorsTypographyStyle settings. Save after each panel.
4

Preview, then publish

The preview shows desktop and mobile side-by-side. Publish when both read clean.

Voyager default — Editorial Navy

Use these values for the default Voyager theme style.

Colors

Style settings

The Checkout typography menu only lists fonts that Shopify hosts. If your storefront uses a font Shopify doesn’t expose to Checkout (Italianno, for example), pick the closest available alternative — Checkout shoppers tolerate a small font shift; mismatched colors and corner radius are far more jarring.

Alternate theme styles

If you’ve selected one of the other named theme styles in Theme settings → Theme styles, use the matching Checkout palette below.

Warm Cream

Minimal Monochrome

Upload the navy variant of your Voyager logo — the one you use on cream backgrounds.
Upload a PNG, not an SVG. Shopify Checkout rejects SVGs that contain <text> tags or external font references. PNG with transparency at 480×120 (or your logo’s native aspect) is the safe path.

Save and publish

Save each panel as you go. The Publish button is top-right of the Checkout editor. Test in an incognito window with a real product in the cart — Shopify Checkout doesn’t preview certain features (Shop Pay, accelerated checkout) until a real session.

Complete preset table

For convenience, a single table you can copy into your branding handoff document.

Troubleshooting

Nine times out of ten the cause is the logo. Shopify Checkout rejects SVGs that embed <text> tags or external fonts — re-export your logo as a flat PNG with transparency at 480 px wide and try again.If the logo isn’t the issue, scan your hex codes. Each must start with #, contain exactly six hexadecimal characters, and have no trailing semicolon, no spaces, no comma. #002F5B is valid; #002F5B; and #002F5B are not.
Expected. Shopify Checkout only loads fonts from its own hosted library — Google Fonts that ship with the Checkout font picker. Pick the closest available alternative; most shoppers will not perceive a mismatch in a checkout flow.
The Checkout Brand color is used for buttons and links inside Checkout. Make sure you’ve set it to the same hex as your Voyager Theme settings → Colors → Primary (ink), not a variant.
Shopify scales the logo down to fit the header height. Upload at 480 px wide minimum — Checkout’s logo box is roughly 200–240 px wide on desktop, so anything smaller looks under-resolved on Retina displays.
Mobile Checkout stacks the summary above the form, then they share the body background. The Order summary background color is only used on desktop. This is a Shopify constraint, not a Voyager issue — there’s no fix at the theme layer.
