Check 10 / 12 LOW impact In the full checklist

Minimize third-party scripts on checkout

What this check is

Checkout is the page where a slow script costs money directly, and it is the page where marketing tags tend to be stacked most heavily. Every script there must justify itself.

How to implement it

List the scripts that load in the cart and checkout, remove or defer anything not needed for measurement or payment, and move analytics to server-side or consent-gated loading where possible. Re-test after each change so a payment method does not break.

How to verify it

Time the checkout step with the scripts enabled and disabled, and confirm the conversion events still fire after the removals.
