# Overview

## What is a checkout page?

The checkout page is one of the most critical steps in your customer’s journey—it's where a customer makes the decision to add their payment information and buy your products.

With Platter+ checkout extensions, you can easily modify your checkout page directly in Shopify. With an optimized checkout, you can:

* **Generate additional revenue** using cross-sells, upsells, and progress bars.
* **Increase customer confidence** using testimonials, badges, and frequently asked questions.
* **Improve conversion rates** with promotions, banners, and custom content.

## Where to edit your checkout page

Using Shopify's checkout editor, you can customize and manage the functionality and appearance of your checkout.

You can edit your checkout in your Shopify admin by clicking on Checkout, and then select Customize beside any of your checkout configurations.&#x20;

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.platter.com/checkout/overview.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
