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.
1. Product recommendations (Upsells)
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.
2. Custom cart announcements
Insert strategic messages in the cart (e.g. “Only a few left!” or “Delivered in 24h”) to create urgency or build trust.
3. Progress bar with rewards
Add a progress bar that motivates customers to increase their order to unlock benefits such as:
Free shipping
Discounts
Gifts
4. Visible coupons
Display and apply discount codes directly in the cart, no need for the customer to enter them manually.
5. Additional notes
Enable a field for customers to leave personalized instructions (e.g. “deliver in the afternoon” or “this is a gift”).
6. Gift selector
Allows customers to select gifts directly from the cart, choosing between different products and variants without annoying pop-ups. It also lets them add more than one gift unit.
Displays in the cart the gifts the customer can obtain, those they’ve already unlocked, and what’s left to unlock the next one.
7. Segmented visibility by customer and market
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:
Market
Login status: whether the customer is logged in or not
Customer tags (e.g., VIP, wholesale, distributor)
Total number of orders
Total amount spent in the store
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.
7. Designed to work with your 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.
8. Mobile-optimized
Planet’s Smart Cart is fully responsive. It adapts automatically to screen size, reorganizing modules to ensure a smooth, frictionless experience on any device.
