Title: Styling the Payment Request Button Last modified: March 13, 2019 --- # Styling the Payment Request Button * Resolved [akc123](https://wordpress.org/support/users/akc123/) * (@akc123) * [7 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/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) Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) * Plugin Contributor [royho](https://wordpress.org/support/users/royho/) * (@royho) * [7 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/styling-the-payment-request-button/#post-11308512) * This plugin uses what is available provided by Stripe see here [https://stripe.com/docs/stripe-js/elements/payment-request-button#styling-the-element](https://stripe.com/docs/stripe-js/elements/payment-request-button#styling-the-element) * Other than that it would be a complete custom solution which we don’t support. * [Mike W](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nixiack8/) * (@nixiack8) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/styling-the-payment-request-button/#post-11348320) * Hi [@akc123](https://wordpress.org/support/users/akc123/), * I will go ahead and close this thread, if you have further questions please open a new thread and let us know! * [Afnan Abbasi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/afnangulabbasi/) * (@afnangulabbasi) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/styling-the-payment-request-button/#post-11425560) * Hey, I don’t know if you got help with this or not but I have written a complete blog post explaining how to do this because I needed help with this as well. * Check it here: [https://justentrepreneurship.com/stripe-payment-request-button-style](https://justentrepreneurship.com/stripe-payment-request-button-style) - This reply was modified 7 years, 1 month ago by [Afnan Abbasi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/afnangulabbasi/). * [jwpapi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jwpapi/) * (@jwpapi) * [6 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/styling-the-payment-request-button/#post-11652415) * [@afnangulabbasi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/afnangulabbasi/) Have you found a way to keep this with an update? * [Afnan Abbasi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/afnangulabbasi/) * (@afnangulabbasi) * [6 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/styling-the-payment-request-button/#post-11652456) * [@jwpapi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jwpapi/) I had asked the plugin developer about this. * You can read that here: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-override-the-plugin-files/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-override-the-plugin-files/) * There are multiple ways that include un-enqueue and re-enqueue, making a duplicate one. There are no hooks in that part of the plugin so we actually cannot modify using the hooks. * But I took the approach of duplicating the plugin. You can change the name + version of the plugin in the main plugin file and keep it like it is your own custom plugin. Often times when you are updating your plugins in a month or so, you can see if the plugin has been updated and then manually update all the files. * Sounds tedious but that’s the only solution at the moment. I could work on the un-enqueue and re-enqueue thing as that would be the best solution here but I am a little busy at the moment with some client work that I can not focus onto this. * [jwpapi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jwpapi/) * (@jwpapi) * [6 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/styling-the-payment-request-button/#post-11652484) * Thank you a lot! That already helps me a lot. * BTW I might look into a way to display it only in Chrome + Android. Since in Chrome you can use Google Pay too. I will update here if I have done it first going through your documentation. * [Afnan Abbasi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/afnangulabbasi/) * (@afnangulabbasi) * [6 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/styling-the-payment-request-button/#post-11652504) * You’re welcome! * Displaying it only on Chrome and Android could be done as well, I think there is a JS Piece of code which helps us detect browsers so maybe we could just use that. But it will require more customization & time. * My Customization on the site, I published it two months ago so it must be working. It pretty much follows the same thing as Stripe says on their documentation but just a little differently. Also, they explain it complex, I explained it more WordPress-way.
