Cart Drawer & Cart Page

Cart upsells in the drawer and on the cart page

One AI offer, two of the highest-intent placements in the store — the slide-out cart drawer and the full cart page.

By the time a shopper opens the cart, they have decided to buy — which makes the cart one of the highest-intent places in the entire store to make a relevant offer. UpsellEngine covers both surfaces: the slide-out cart drawer that appears when an item is added, and the full cart page shoppers land on before checkout.

Each offer is a single, well-chosen recommendation with a one-click add, so it nudges the order up without cluttering the path to checkout. The product shown is chosen by AI from what is already in the cart and what typically sells alongside it, and you can override or restrict the logic whenever you want a specific pairing.

Covering both surfaces matters because shoppers reach checkout by different routes. Themes with a slide-out drawer never send the customer to a dedicated cart page, so an offer that only lives on the cart page would never be seen; other stores rely on the full cart page as a review step. UpsellEngine shows the same considered offer in whichever surface your theme and your shopper actually use, and you can attach a countdown timer or a small discount when you want to add urgency without resorting to a store-wide sale.
