About this tool.
Try the live demo and add a product to see the cart drawer in action.
CartPops adds a slide-out side cart to your WooCommerce store, so shoppers no longer have to visit the cart page. Shoppers add a product, see their cart slide in, change quantities, apply a coupon and head straight to checkout, all without a page reload.
The drawer is light: no jQuery, and its styles and scripts only load where they are needed. It works with block themes, classic themes and the popular page builders.
What you get for free
Slide-out side cart. The cart drawer opens as an add to cart popup when a product is added, including from the product page, or only when the shopper clicks the cart. Quantities, removals, totals and coupons update in place.
Floating cart launcher. A floating cart icon with a live item count, like a mini cart that is always in reach. Place it anywhere with the Cart Launcher block or the [cartpops_launcher] shortcode, or let it appear automatically.
Upsells and cross-sells. Suggest products inside the drawer from your cross-sells, upsells or related products, with a random fallback so the section is never empty.
Coupon form. Shoppers apply and remove coupons right in the drawer. On small phone screens it folds into a “Have a coupon?” link.
Design that matches your store. Start from a preset, then fine-tune 24+ colors, separate dark mode colors, button text and layout with a live preview. Add your own CSS when you need it.
Blocks and classic themes. Cart Drawer and Cart Launcher blocks for the Site Editor, and automatic rendering on classic themes.
Settings import and export. Copy your setup from a staging site to your live store in a few clicks.
What Pro adds
CartPops Pro turns the drawer into a place where orders grow.
Free shipping bar and rewards. A progress bar shows how close the shopper is to free shipping, read straight from your WooCommerce shipping zones. Add reward tiers that unlock a discount or a free gift as the cart grows.
Shipping calculator. Shoppers can estimate shipping inside the drawer.
Bundle builder. Offer “frequently bought together” products with an automatic bundle discount.
Smart add-ons. Offer extras such as shipping protection, gift wrapping or priority handling, added to the order as a fee.
Smart Bar. Show messages, a cart expiry timer or a product spotlight at the top of the drawer, based on cart total, products or categories.
Hand-picked recommendations. Choose exactly which products to recommend, in your own order.
Conversion analytics. See what the drawer, bundles, add-ons and Smart Bar add to your revenue.
Second drawer button. Add a “Continue shopping”, “View cart” or custom link next to Checkout.
Elementor cart widget. Place the launcher with Elementor.
Every Pro plan includes every Pro feature. Plans differ only in the number of sites.

Frequently asked questions.
Does CartPops require WooCommerce?
Yes. CartPops needs WooCommerce 9.0 or newer, WordPress 6.5 or newer and PHP 8.1 or newer.
Does it work with my theme?
CartPops works with block themes and classic themes. On classic themes the drawer and launcher appear automatically; on block themes you add them with blocks. If something looks off, you can adjust it with custom CSS or contact support.
Does it work with the WooCommerce Cart and Checkout blocks?
Yes. The drawer stays in sync with block-based carts and checkout.
Will CartPops slow down my store?
The drawer does not need jQuery, and its files load only on pages where the drawer can appear. Cart changes happen in place, without reloading the page.
Can shoppers still use the regular cart page?
Yes. The cart page keeps working. You can choose whether adding a product opens the drawer, and Pro lets you add a “View cart” button to the drawer.
Is CartPops compatible with High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS)?
Yes.
What is the difference between Free and Pro?
Free gives you the full cart drawer, launcher, coupons, design options and recommendations from your cross-sells and upsells. Pro adds the shipping and rewards meter, shipping calculator, bundles, add-ons, Smart Bar, hand-picked recommendations and analytics. See cartpops.com/pricing .
What happens to my settings if I deactivate or delete CartPops?
They are kept. Deactivating or deleting the plugin keeps your settings, analytics and license, so reinstalling picks up where you left off. To remove all CartPops data when you delete the plugin, first add define( 'CARTPOPS_ALLOW_PERMANENT_DATA_PURGE', true ); to your wp-config.php file.
I’m upgrading from CartPops 1.x. What changes?
Your settings, styling and license carry over. Version 2 is built around the cart drawer: the old popup and top bar cart layouts are gone, and the Smart Bar now lives inside the drawer (Pro). Version 1 automation rules and custom JavaScript no longer run. Back up your site and try the update on a staging copy first.
