Styling the Payment Request Button
-
So the payment request button works fine, and switches between Google Pay and Apple Pay depending on browser/device.
On Apple devices, the button uses the Apple Pay logo which is obvious and clear enough – if people don’t have Apple Pay, then they just ignore it and use the normal WooComm “Continue to Checkout” button.
But on Google/Android/Chrome devices, the button is purple with a nice little animated arrow with just the one word “Buy” – this is incredibly confusing for customers, because obviously most who see this large animated Buy button will click on it without realizing it is a separate button just for Google Pay. And if they don’t have a payment method activated with GP or don’t want to use it, they have no idea what’s going on. And often don’t even see the normal “Continue to Checkout” button due to their confusion.
So despite the nice purple animated style, this button obviously needs to be changed for GP similar to the AP button which makes it absolutely clear to visitors that this is a special button for GP only.
If that isn’t possible, then there needs to be a way to edit the “Buy” text in the plugin settings to change it to some custom text, like “Buy Now with Google Pay” or whatever.
Surprised that no one else has commented on this, but I guess most sites using this plugin have the Payment Request button deactivated (as I have done until this gets sorted)
