Modern Cart – WooCommerce Side Cart & Popup Cart vs Floating Minicart for WooCommerce

Modern Cart is the ultimate WooCommerce side cart plugin that replaces your clunky default cart page with a smooth slide-out cart drawer or popup cart – all powered by AJAX so customers never leave the page they’re on. Stop losing sales to the default WooCommerce cart page. Every time a shopper gets redirected to a separate cart page, you lose momentum. A WooCommerce side cart fixes this instantly so the cart slides open right on the page, no redirect, no reload, no lost sale. Add a free shipping progress bar, in-cart upsells, and a built-in coupon form on top, and every cart visit becomes an opportunity to grow your average order value. Try the live demo of Modern Cart Why Your Store Needs a WooCommerce Side Cart The default WooCommerce cart page kills conversions. Shoppers click “Add to Cart,” get bounced to a separate page, and lose interest. That friction costs you real money every single day. A WooCommerce side cart (also called a cart drawer, sliding cart, or floating cart) solves this immediately. The cart opens right there on the page – no redirect, no reload. A floating cart icon stays pinned in the corner at all times so shoppers always know what’s in their cart and can open it from anywhere on your store. 🏆 Trusted by 4,000,000+ WordPress users worldwide • Built by Brainstorm Force, the team behind CartFlows and Astra Theme.
