Cart drawer

Set up Cart drawer for a seamless shopping experience

Cart drawer (also known as the slide-out cart, or side cart) allows customers to view and manage their shopping cart without leaving the current page.

Overall, a cart drawer is useful for improving the user experience and increasing conversions to an online store. By giving an enhanced customer experience, you can reduce the cart abandonment rate of your store.

How to enable the cart drawer for your Shopify store

How to customize your cart drawer

General settings

  • Show cart note: Allow customers to leave a note for their order.

  • Show shipping rates calculator: Display a tool that lets customers estimate their shipping costs before they proceed to the checkout page.

Free shipping goal

Enable this to display a progress bar indicating how much more the customer needs to spend to qualify for free shipping.

The Free shipping goal is based on the store's primary currency. If customers switch to another currency, the goal will be calculated using Shopify market exchange rates.

Cart recommendation

The Cart recommendation presents complementary product recommendations upon cart addition. The recommendations are dynamic and based on the items in your cart. They change and improve with time.

To learn more about the recommendation logic, see Shopify's Recommendations.

To customize the recommendation list displayed on your product page and cart recommendations, see Shopify Help Center.
