Shopify is retiring the script this banner relied on, so it had already stopped displaying. Its nav links and help text are now hidden. The COD-to-Prepaid automation itself is unaffected.
The removed links belonged to the old banner on Shopify's Thank You page. Removing them stops sending your team to instructions for a storefront feature that no longer displays. This change does not turn off your WhatsApp COD-to-Prepaid automation or change its configured order-confirmation rules.
Manage the WhatsApp flow under Marketing → Automations. It can send eligible COD customers a payment link according to your existing automation settings. You do not need to enable a replacement banner for that message flow. Use the COD-to-Prepaid automation guide to review the payment provider, message template and follow-on order actions; the retired banner guide is not the setup guide for this workflow.
