Hatchlift Products review for GOVX ID Exclusive Discounts

April 10, 2026

Had major issues getting the cart drawer to work properly for the GOVX ID button to first appear and second to open the portal for verification. It took a lot of troubleshooting and adding/changing lines of code to get it to work properly. The simple auto embeds features didn't work for the cart drawer but did work for the page view of the cart. Some fixes need to be made for the cart drawer to work properly if the box is checked for the button to appear and operate in that view. If you don't want a cart drawer used when adding an item to the cart from a product page, it works fine. If you want the drawer feature as well (which some customers like to know the indeed added an item to their cart before checking out or continuing to shop) it requires some "blood, sweat, and tears" to get it to work correctly. Key points worth mentioning: * GovXIdApi is the correct global object (not GovXId or GovX). * refresh() does not re-scan dynamically injected buttons. * The native button only injects on the cart page — no mention of this limitation in their deploy docs. *data-time is required for popup() to work but is only set by their internal scanner on page load. NOTE: rating of 3 stars given because the extensive amount of time required to troubleshoot and repair functionality to make it work. Granted, it may depend on the version of Shopify being used and the plan whether it's Professional or Plus.
