Removing the default "Powered by Shopify" watermark in your store footer gives your e-commerce brand a clean, bespoke look. Here are the 3 easiest ways to remove it:
Method 1: The Default Theme Content Editor (Recommended)
1. In Shopify Admin, go to Online Store > Themes.
2. Click the ... (Three Dots) next to Customize and select Edit default theme content.
3. In the search bar, type powered.
4. Under Checkout & system / Links, click the Powered by Shopify box, press Spacebar (to make it a single empty space), and click Save.
Method 2: Direct Liquid Code Removal
Open sections/footer.liquid, search for {{ powered_by_link }}, and delete the line or wrap it inside a Liquid comment.
