What benefits does Planet’s Smart Cart offer compared to Shopify’s standard cart?

Each Shopify theme includes its cart, with varying styles and features. Planet’s Smart Cart doesn’t replace a single “standard cart”, it simply offers more functionality than native carts, delivering a more visual, strategic experience aligned with your promotions.

Display related or complementary products directly in the cart in a visual, automated way, with no need for third-party apps.
Fully compatible with the official Shopify Search & Discovery app to configure personalized recommendations.

Insert strategic messages in the cart (e.g. “Only a few left!” or “Delivered in 24h”) to create urgency or build trust.

Add a progress bar that motivates customers to increase their order to unlock benefits such as:

Display and apply discount codes directly in the cart, no need for the customer to enter them manually.

Enable a field for customers to leave personalized instructions (e.g. “deliver in the afternoon” or “this is a gift”).

One of the key features of Planet’s Smart Cart is the ability to display different carts based on the user's profile.

You can create multiple cart versions and configure their visibility by combining conditions such as:

This segmentation enables you to tailor the cart content to each user type, from displaying exclusive promotions to frequent buyers to showing country-specific messages. This way, you improve the shopping experience and boost conversion with personalized promotions.

The Smart Cart is fully integrated with promotions created in Planet:
It automatically displays discounts, rewards, gifts, and more; no extra setup is required.

Planet’s Smart Cart is fully responsive. It adapts automatically to screen size, reorganizing modules to ensure a smooth, frictionless experience on any device.
