Cart & Checkout

Optimize your cart to increase sales and reduce abandoned checkouts.

Cart Type

How should the cart behave when a customer adds a product?

1. Go to Theme Settings > Cart.
2. Cart Type:
   • Drawer: A side panel slides out (Recommended). It keeps customers on the page so they can keep shopping.
   • Page: Redirects them to a dedicated /cart page.
   • Notification: Shows a small popup message.

In-Cart Upsells (Cross-Sell)

Suggest related products right inside the cart to boost your average order value.

How to Set Up

1. Go to Theme Settings > Cart Cross-sell.
2. Global Product: Select a product that appeals to everyone (e.g., a cleaning kit or gift wrap). This will show up if no specific recommendations are found.
3. Dynamic Recommendations:
   • You can set specific recommendations for each product using Shopify Metafields (custom.cart_cross_sell).
   • If you're a beginner, just stick to the Global Product for now—it's much easier!

Free Shipping Bar

Motivate customers to spend more by showing how close they are to free shipping.

1. Go to Theme Settings > Free Shipping Bar.
2. Threshold: Enter the amount needed for free shipping (e.g., 50 for $50).
3. Result: The cart will show "Spend $15 more for Free Shipping!".

Checkout Settings

• Logo: Make sure to upload your logo for the Checkout page too! This is done in Theme Settings > Checkout.
• Colors: Match the checkout button colors to your store's branding.
