Cart Theme Settings
Minimum Order Amount
Restrict your cart below a certain subtotal:
Within your Theme Editor, navigate to Theme Settings > Cart.
Select Minimum Order Amount.
Enter the value without a currency symbol or decimal point (e.g., $100.00 would be
10000). Leave blank to allow all orders without a minimum.
Cart Drawer Settings
Block Settings
Announcement: A smaller banner at the top of the page. Use it to inform customers about current promotions.
Featured Upsell: Show featured products within your cart page. Click the Change icon to select the products you want to display.
Checkbox Upsell: Add a checkbox to let customers easily opt-in to upgrade their order. Select your variant ID from your Shopify admin (https://admin.shopify.com/store/).
How Checkbox Upsell Works
Customers see a checkbox with your custom label in the cart (e.g., "Add 1-year limited warranty for $9.99").
When customers click the checkbox, the cart drawer refreshes with the new product added.
When customers uncheck the checkbox, the cart refreshes with the upsell product removed.
Progress Bar
Show a visual indication when customers receive a discount (e.g., free shipping or a percentage off).
Additional Notes
Regularly update promotions and upsell products to keep the cart drawer engaging.
Test the cart drawer across different devices to ensure a seamless user experience.
