Yes, the number of fields required on the checkout page in Webflow can be reduced to only include essential information for a digital product with no shipping address needed. Here's how you can achieve this:

Remove unnecessary fields: By default, Webflow includes fields for shipping address, city, state, and postal code on the checkout page. Since these fields are not required for a digital product, you can delete them by going to your checkout page in the Designer and selecting each field to delete.
Customize the form: Webflow allows you to customize the checkout form to collect only the essential information you need. Add fields such as name and email address for customer details and any other information specific to your product or service.
Set fields as required: To ensure that customers provide the essential information, mark the necessary fields as required. In the Designer, select the field, go to the settings panel, and toggle on the "Required" option.
Enable billing address collection (optional): If you need to collect billing information, you can enable the billing address collection. Go to your project settings, select the "Checkout & Payments" tab, and enable the "Billing Address" option. This will only show the billing address fields when necessary.
Test the checkout process: After making these changes, it's important to test the checkout process thoroughly. Place test orders to ensure that customers can successfully complete the checkout process with the reduced fields.

By customizing the checkout page in Webflow, you can optimize the user experience and streamline the checkout process for digital products without the need for shipping address information.
