Hide the Rewards Bar for Specific Countries

Use custom HTML and CSS to show or hide your rewards bar based on customer location.

Updated over a week ago

Overview

If you only offer rewards in certain regions, you can hide the rewards bar from customers in specific countries using a combination of JavaScript and CSS. This helps keep your cart clean and relevant for shoppers based on where they are browsing from.

Note:

Even when hidden, the rewards logic still runs in the background. For example, a free gift may still be added to the cart if the conditions are met, even if the bar is not visible.


Step 1: Find your target country codes

You’ll need to define which countries should see the rewards bar. To find codes, refer to Shopify’s list of ISO 2-letter country codes.

Examples:

  • US → United States

  • CA → Canada

  • MX → Mexico


Step 2: Add custom HTML

  1. Go to Upcart > Cart Editor > Settings > Custom HTML

  2. Paste the following code into both of these locations:

    • Above announcements/rewards

    • On empty cart

Replace "US" with your desired country code(s).

<script>   function hideRewards() {     let rewardsBar = window.upcartDocumentOrShadowRoot.querySelector(".upcart-rewards");     let country = window.Shopify.country;     if (country.includes("US")) {       rewardsBar.classList.remove("hide");       return;     }     rewardsBar.classList.add("hide");   }   window.upcartOnCartOpened = setTimeout(hideRewards, 300);   window.upcartOnCartLoaded = hideRewards; </script>

To support multiple countries, adjust the condition like this:

if (["US", "CA", "GB"].includes(country)) {

Step 3: Add custom CSS

  1. Go to Upcart > Cart Editor > Settings > Custom CSS

  2. Paste this code to control visibility:

.hide {   display: none; }

Final result

Customers from excluded countries will not see the rewards bar in their cart, even though reward logic still functions in the background.

Use this method if:

  • You only offer rewards in select markets

  • You want to avoid displaying non-applicable promotions

  • You need a short-term workaround before setting up proper region-based logic
