# About Checkout Settings

With the Checkout Settings API, you can retrieve and update the checkout settings for a site. These settings include adding or removing eCommerce policies, and setting checkbox behavior for a checkout.    

Policies will appear as clickable links in the footer of a checkout. Checkboxes can be found when selecting the payment method. Clicking on the policy name opens a pop-up window with the policy text. Default checkout settings are provided when Wix eCommerce, Bookings, or Events & Tickets apps are installed on a site. 

## Before you begin

It’s important to note the following before starting to code:  

- Install the [Wix Stores](https://www.wix.com/app-market/wix-stores?referral=category&appIndex=1&referralTag=ecommerce), [Wix Bookings](https://www.wix.com/app-market/web-solution/bookings?appIndex=0&referral=search-result&referralSectionName=bookings), or [Wix Events & Tickets](https://www.wix.com/app-market/web-solution/events?appIndex=1&referral=search-result&referralSectionName=events) app from the App Market.
