Multiple Carts feature overview

Edit on GitHub

Sometimes customers need more than one shopping cart, such as one for daily purchases and another one for monthly expenses. The Multiple Carts feature lets you create and manage multiple shopping carts in one customer account.

Creating and managing multiple shopping carts

There are two ways to create a shopping cart:

  • Through a shopping cart widget in the header of the shop.
  • From the Shopping Cart page in the My Account menu.

New items are added to the shopping cart by clicking Add to Cart on the product details page.

Customers can create not just one but multiple shopping carts to be used for different needs.

For example, these can be a shopping cart for daily purchases or a shopping cart for goods that you purchase once a month.

After a shopping cart has been created, it appears in the shopping carts table on the Shopping Cart page in My Account.

The table with shopping carts shows details for each of the carts, including the following:

  • Name of the shopping cart
  • Access level (Owner, Read-only, or Full access)
  • Number of products added to cart
  • Price mode (Net or Gross)
  • Cart Total
  • Possible actions to manage shopping carts: edit name, duplicate, share, dismiss, delete, switch cart to the shopping list (see the Actions table for details)

Multiple carts list

The following table provides detailed information about the possible actions to manage shopping carts.

ACTION DESCRIPTION
Edit Name Lets a customer edit the name of the shopping cart.
Duplicate Creates a copy of the chosen shopping cart including the items added to the cart.
The duplicate copy of the cart is named according to the template: <Name of the original cart> Copied At <Mo. dd, yyyy hh:mm>
A cart can be converted into shopping list on the Shopping Cart page by clicking on To shopping list.
Dismiss Lets a customer dismiss a shared shopping cart.
Delete Deletes the shopping cart.
Deleting a shopping cart also deletes the items added to it.

To view how to create, edit, duplicate, and delete a cart and how to dismiss shared carts, see the Multiple Carts on the storefront section.

To learn more about sharing the shopping cart, see Shared Cart documentation.

An active shopping cart is highlighted in bold.

Only one shopping cart can be set as active in the customer account.

There are two ways to set a shopping cart as active:

  • Clicking on the cart name in the shopping cart widget in the header of the shop.
  • Clicking on the cart name on the Shopping Cart page in the My Account menu.

After the shopping cart is set to active, the user is redirected to the respective cart page where a table with the following information is available:
