ƒKajabi no longer supports our original checkout version, also called the 2016 checkout, and we’re retiring it. Any Offer still on it after December 31st, 2026 will be moved to Legacy checkout, which is supported. If you’d rather choose your own timing and where your Offers land, you can move them yourself now.
Offers already on Legacy or Enhanced checkout aren’t affected, so no action is required.
Choose between Legacy and Enhanced checkout
You have two options. Your products, pricing, URLs, and integrations stay the same on either one.
Enhanced checkout (recommended). This is where we’re investing. It lets you match your checkout to your brand with Theme Builder, offer price variants, add multiple order bumps, and more.
Legacy checkout. Your buyers see the same checkout they do today. It’s the quickest option, and you can upgrade to Enhanced whenever you want.
Feature | Legacy checkout | Enhanced checkout |
Theme Builder customization | No | Yes |
Price variants | No | Yes |
Multiple order bumps | No | Yes |
Both support loginless checkout and Pay What You Want. Moving off the 2016 checkout also makes your Offers eligible for Kajabi Payments, which includes digital wallets like Apple Pay and Google Pay and Buy Now Pay Later, if you choose to turn them on.
Note: You may see two banners at the top of your Offers page. The amber banner moves your Offers to Legacy checkout, and the blue banner is for Enhanced checkout. Which button you click decides where your Offers land.
Upgrade Offers to Enhanced checkout
You can upgrade all your affected Offers at once, or one at a time. Either way, upgrading takes two steps: installing the new checkout templates, then activating them.
Upgrade all Offers at once
From the Dashboard, click Sales, then Offers.
At the top of the Offers page, follow the prompts in the blue banner to install the new checkout templates.
When the banner says your checkout templates are ready, click Activate New Checkouts.
In the confirmation window, check the number of Offers to be updated, then click Activate All.
Kajabi switches every Offer to Enhanced checkout, and each one keeps its checkout URL.
Note: Clicking Activate New Checkouts upgrades every Offer in the confirmation window. To try Enhanced checkout on one Offer first, upgrade that Offer individually instead.
Upgrade one Offer at a time
If you’d rather try Enhanced checkout on one Offer first, activate it from the Offer itself.
From the Dashboard, click Sales, then Offers.
Click the Offer you want to upgrade.
At the top of the Offer, follow the prompts in the blue banner. When it asks whether to activate your checkout, click Activate checkout.
In the confirmation window, review the checkout preview, then click Activate.
The Offer switches to Enhanced checkout within a few seconds and keeps its checkout URL. After that, you can customize the checkout from the Offer’s checkout settings. Repeat these steps for each Offer you want to upgrade.
Update Offers to Legacy checkout
If you’d rather keep things as they are for now, you can move your affected Offers to Legacy checkout in one step from the amber colored banner on the Offer page. This moves all affected Offers at once.
From the Dashboard, click Sales, then Offers.
In the amber banner at the top of the page, click Update offers.
In the confirmation window, review the details, then click Confirm.
After you confirm, you’ll see “Your offers are being updated.” The update runs in the background, and the banner goes away. If you see “We couldn’t start updating your offers,” please try again. If it keeps happening, email [email protected].
What happens after December 31st, 2026
If you don’t move your Offers before then, there’s nothing you need to do. After December 31st, 2026, Kajabi moves each Offer still on the 2016 checkout to Legacy checkout, and we’ll email you to confirm. Your products, pricing, and integrations stay the same.
Those Offers won’t have Enhanced features like Theme Builder customization, but you can upgrade them to Enhanced checkout whenever you want. Moving them yourself now means you choose the timing and where they land.
Get a list of affected Offers or help with the move
The banner on your Offers page shows how many Offers are affected. If you have 25 or fewer, click View offers to see them by name. If you have more than 25 and would like a list of impacted offers email [email protected].
FAQs
Can I customize the checkout before I activate it?
No. You customize Enhanced checkout after you activate it. To try it on a single Offer first, upgrade that Offer on its own.
Can I put some Offers on Enhanced and the rest on Legacy?
Yes. Upgrade the Offers you want on Enhanced first, then use the amber banner to move the rest to Legacy.
Is Legacy checkout going away?
For now, Legacy checkout is supported and Offers on it keep working. Enhanced is where we’re investing, so that’s where new checkout features will be built.
Will moving an Offer change its checkout link?
No. A moved Offer keeps the same checkout URL, so you don’t need to update links on other pages or websites.
What happens to customers who already purchased an Offer?
Existing customers aren’t affected. Customers with an active subscription or payment plan stay on their current plan, and only future customers see the new checkout.
Do I need Kajabi Payments to move my Offers?
No. You can move Offers to either checkout and choose to not use Kajabi Payments.
Will my checkout customizations carry over?
Some customizations may need to be reconfigured in the Enhanced checkout editor. Review your checkout settings after upgrading.
