Let customers pick their delivery date before they pay.

TrueSlot adds a delivery and pickup slot picker to Shopify checkout. You set the days, cutoffs, and capacity — shoppers only ever see slots you can deliver.

  • Works with any theme
  • Set up in minutes
  • Free plan available

Delivery gets calmer when every order carries its own slot

Why merchants switch

  • Runs inside checkout, so nothing depends on your theme
  • One slot per order, readable by every fulfilment tool
  • Capacity caps stop a busy day from being oversold

What it does

Three jobs, handled end to end

Set the rules once and TrueSlot carries the date, the window, and the method from the checkout page through to fulfilment.

A picker inside checkout

Shoppers choose a delivery or pickup date and time window on the checkout page itself — no theme edits, no extra step after payment.

Slots that respect capacity

Cap how many orders each day and each window can take. Full windows close themselves, so a busy Saturday never gets oversold.

The slot lands on the order

Every order carries its chosen slot into the admin — as order tags, the order note, a metafield, or a location for routing.

Controls

Every rule you need to promise a date you can keep

The picker only ever offers what your operation can actually deliver — because every constraint lives in one settings hub.

Working days and cutoffs

Pick the days you deliver and the hour a same-day order has to be in by. Everything past the cutoff rolls to the next working day.

Lead times

Hold back the first bookable date by as many days as you need to pick, pack, or bake — set once, applied to every order.

Blackout dates

Close individual dates for holidays, stock takes, or a full van. Blocked days never appear as an option at checkout.

Capacity caps

Limit orders per day and per time window. Once a window fills it closes itself, so the schedule can never be oversold.

Delivery areas

Match on postal code so shoppers outside your radius are told before they pay, not after the order lands.

Method-specific rules

Store pickup, local delivery, and shipping each get their own days, windows, and lead times rather than sharing one schedule.

Every scheduled order, in one readable view

TrueSlot's admin sits inside Shopify. Open the day you're packing and see exactly which orders belong to which window.

The TrueSlot orders screen inside the Shopify admin, listing scheduled orders with their delivery date, time slot, method, pickup location, and customer.

One dashboard per delivery day

Filter scheduled orders by date, method, or slot, then work the day's run in the order you'll drive it.

One settings hub

Working days, lead times, cutoffs, slots, capacity, blackout dates, and emails all live in the same place.

Customer reschedules

Send a reschedule link on the order so customers move themselves to another open slot instead of emailing you.

From install to a scheduled first order

Install from the App Store

The picker appears in checkout the moment the app is installed — no theme edits, no code to paste.

Set your delivery rules

Choose working days, lead time, same-day cutoff, blackout dates, and capacity caps in one settings hub. The picker only ever offers what those rules allow.

Fulfil by the day sheet

Every order arrives tagged with its date and window, so your admin view — and any tool reading order tags — can be sorted into a run sheet.

Before you install

Practical answers about setup, checkout, fulfilment, and what happens to the slot after an order is placed.

Does TrueSlot work with my theme?

Yes. The picker renders inside Shopify checkout as a checkout UI extension, so it works with every theme and needs no template edits. You can also add a picker to the cart page from the theme editor if you want shoppers to choose earlier.

Where does the chosen delivery slot end up?

On the order. It shows on the order details page in your Shopify admin, and can also be written to order tags, the order note, an order metafield, or a location — so it flows into whatever fulfilment or shipping app you already use.

Can I limit how many orders I take per day?

Yes. Set a daily cap and a separate cap per time window. When a window fills up it stops being offered, and when the day is full the date closes. Lead times and same-day cutoffs stop last-minute orders you cannot deliver.

Can I block specific dates and holidays?

Yes. Block individual dates, close whole weekdays, sync public holidays for your country, and force any single date open or closed when you make an exception.

Does it handle store pickup and local delivery too?

Yes. Pickup, local delivery, and shipping each get their own working days, lead times, and time windows, so a pickup slot never borrows the delivery calendar.

Can I require a delivery date before customers pay?

Yes. Checkout validation blocks payment until a date and slot are chosen, and payment rules can hide methods that do not apply to the selected slot.

Do customers get told which slot they picked?

Confirmation emails go out with the chosen date and window, and a reminder email lands before the slot. Customers can also open a reschedule link from their order to move to another available slot.

Can I charge extra for weekend or rush deliveries?

Yes, on Shopify Plus. Delivery surcharges add a fee for weekend, holiday, or rush slots automatically as a line item in the cart.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The Free plan covers core scheduling for up to 20 scheduled orders a month. Paid plans from $9.99/month add emails, checkout controls, reschedule links, and higher order limits.

Give every order a delivery date you can keep.

Install TrueSlot, set your working days and capacity, and let shoppers pick from slots you actually have room for.
