There is no setting for this. Hiding, reordering or renaming a payment method at checkout has no toggle anywhere in the admin; it is done by a function, and every app in this category is an interface over that same mechanism. They are therefore more alike underneath than the listings suggest, and what is genuinely worth paying for is the rule builder and the handling of the edge cases.

The edge cases are most of the story. A store may run only a limited number of payment customisations in total, pooled across every app rather than allotted per app. The rules can see the cart, the totals, the addresses, whether the customer carries a given tag and whether they are buying on behalf of a company. But accelerated wallet checkouts largely ignore them, express buttons can be removed and not reordered, hiding a method in one place while keeping it in another is reserved for the top plan, and none of it runs at the point of sale. In the United States and Canada there is a further limit worth knowing before you start comparing: below that top plan, these customisations do not apply to credit card methods at all.

What to look for in a Payment Hero app

Check the plan and country limits before anything else: If you are trading in the United States or Canada on a standard plan and what you want is to hide a credit card option, no app on this list can do it, because the restriction is the platform's rather than theirs. Establishing this first saves installing three of them to find out.
The allowance is shared: Payment customisations are counted per store, not per app, so anything else already adjusting checkout is drawing on the same pool. If you run separate apps for B2B rules and cash on delivery, they are competing, and the symptom is a rule that silently stops applying.
What a rule is allowed to know: Cart contents, totals, billing and delivery addresses, whether a customer has a particular tag, and whether the buyer is a company. If your policy depends on something outside that list, order history for instance, no rule builder here will express it however good the interface looks.
Wallets are a separate problem: The express buttons at the top of checkout do not behave like the methods below them, and several apps sell hiding them as a distinct feature for exactly that reason. If wallets are what you are trying to control, confirm that specifically rather than assuming a general hiding rule reaches them.

What does the Built for Shopify badge mean?

Built for Shopify
Built for Shopify is the highest level of recognition Shopify awards an app. To earn the badge, an app must meet Shopify's standards for safety, performance, ease of use, and proven usefulness: it cannot slow down the admin, storefront, or checkout, must integrate seamlessly into the Shopify admin, and must demonstrate quality through installs, reviews, and ratings over time. When comparing similar apps, preferring ones with the badge is a safe default. Learn more about the Built for Shopify badge →
