AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Caddy – WooCommerce Side Cart & Free Shipping Bar is a mixed-rating WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 20 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +Published by Tribe Interactive — established developer track record
Cons
- −Average rating below 4.0 (3.9★) — read recent low-star reviews before committing
- −Limited review base (20) — ratings can shift significantly with new feedback

How Caddy – WooCommerce Side Cart & Free Shipping Bar works
Show full descriptionShow less
Caddy is a high performance WooCommerce side cart plugin (also known as a floating cart, sliding cart, cart drawer, or mini cart) that improves your store’s shopping experience and helps grow your sales. It replaces the default WooCommerce cart page with a sticky AJAX side cart that slides in from the edge of the screen, letting customers manage their cart without leaving the page.
Built on Modern WordPress APIs Caddy v3 is built from the ground up on the WordPress Interactivity API and the WooCommerce Store API – the same modern foundations that power WooCommerce’s own cart and checkout blocks. This means:
Instant AJAX cart updates – no full-page reloads. Cart changes are reactive and immediate, making it the fastest WooCommerce AJAX side cart available.
Server-synced state – every cart operation goes through the official WooCommerce Store API, ensuring accurate prices, tax calculations, and stock validation.
Lightweight floating cart – no jQuery dependency. Caddy uses native ES modules loaded as WordPress script modules for the smallest possible footprint.
Future-proof – built on the same APIs WordPress and WooCommerce are investing in long-term.
Increase average order value with Caddy’s built-in in-cart upsells and cross-sell product recommendations, reduce cart abandonment with a free shipping bar, and encourage repeat shoppers with a save for later wishlist.
