How to show the selected date and time on your Thank You page and confirmation emails
A customer picks a delivery date and time slot at checkout, completes their order, and then… nothing. The Thank You page doesn’t mention it. The confirmation email doesn’t either. So they do the only thing they can: email you asking “when is my order arriving?”
Multiply that by every order, every day, and it’s a real drain on your time. Two small additions fix this completely.
Add the date and time to your Thank You page
When a customer completes checkout, the Thank You page is the first thing they see. Adding their selected delivery or pickup date and time slot here gives them immediate confirmation that their choice was recorded.
This takes about 2 minutes using the Buunto app block in your Shopify theme editor. No code needed.
→ Show the selected date on the Thank You and Order Status pages
Add the date and time to your order confirmation email
The Thank You page is great for the moment of purchase, but your customers will look at their confirmation email when they want to check their delivery details later. Adding the date and time slot here means they always have it in their inbox, ready to find.
→ Edit the order confirmation email to show the selected date and time slot
Why it matters
These two additions are small but they make a big difference to your day-to-day operations. Customers who can see their delivery date and time don’t need to ask about it. That means fewer support messages, less back-and-forth, and more time focused on what actually matters: preparing and delivering orders.
It also builds trust. When a customer sees their exact delivery window confirmed on the Thank You page and in their email, they know their order is in good hands.
