Remove Billing Fields on Checkout
-
Hi,
Anyone here that can help? I need one of my site to ignore or to make the billing fields (OPTIONAL) on checkout, because, we only want the shipping fields to be prioritized so that we can have fewer fields on checkout. Will there be any repercussions if the billing fields are left empty? Especially for payment gateways? Thanks in advance!

Hi @ryanothelo
we only want the shipping fields to be prioritized so that we can have fewer fields on checkout
This can be achieved programmatically but may depend on the payment gateways in use. May I know which payment gateway are you using? In order for us to get a better idea of your setup, Could you please share a copy of your site’s System Status. You can find it via WooCommerce > Status. Select “Get system report” and then “Copy for support”. Once you’ve done that, paste it here in your response.
In the meantime, you can try out the snippets shared in these tutorials for making fields required or optional on the Checkout page:
* We recommend using a plugin like Code Snippets to add the snippet to your site.

Hello,
Billing address is used for verification check, which reduces fraud rates. For more information, you can check out Stripe’s documentation on card verification checks here: https://stripe.com/docs/disputes/prevention/verification
