Optional cart add-ons for Shopify

One switch. One clear choice before checkout.

Show a clean order summary with a simple switch for an optional add-on, like gift wrap, priority handling, or a service you provide. Shoppers see the price, switch it on, watch the total update, and continue to Shopify Checkout.

Shopify-managed subscription · no per-order fees · no revenue share

Try the switch. Illustrative example.

How it works Buyer chooses before Shopify Checkout

The add-on starts switched off. CartArmor adds it to the Shopify cart only when the buyer switches it on, and removes it when they switch it off.

Offer examples

Merchants can configure an optional product or service. They set its price, terms, and fulfillment.

How it works

Set it up in three simple steps.

Choose what you want to offer, match the card to your brand, and turn it on for your cart page or drawer. CartArmor handles the switch and shows you the results.

01 / CHOOSE WHAT YOU SELL

Create a cart-only product, or use something you already sell.

You can create a dedicated product or select an existing Shopify variant. Review its product visibility and storefront settings before offering it.

Option 1: Unlisted productUse a dedicated product for a merchant-defined service or add-on, with clear product details and terms.
Option 2: Existing Shopify productUse an item or variant you already sell, such as a sample, accessory, or lower-priced complementary product.

Ten styles

Make it look like your store.

Pick a style, edit every line of text, and watch the preview update as you type. Merchants set the product, price, description, and fulfillment. Nothing is added to the cart until the shopper switches it on.

Illustrative example. Tap a style, then try the switch.

Your workspace

Everything in one calm, simple workspace.

CartArmor combines a cart offer with controls for its product, buyer-facing copy, style, theme placement, and aggregate activity inside Shopify.

Use cases

Whatever you would offer at the cart.

CartArmor displays a merchant-selected product or service before Shopify Checkout. The merchant sets its price, terms, claims, and fulfillment.

Package-related services

Merchants define what an optional service includes, how it is fulfilled, and the terms customers see.

Gift presentation

Offer a merchant-provided gift wrap or message option as a separate Shopify product.

Priority handling

Describe any handling service accurately and fulfill it under the merchant's stated terms.

Packaging options

Let buyers choose a packaging add-on when its details and price are clear.

Accessories or samples

Use an existing Shopify product or a dedicated product for an optional cart add-on.

Other merchant-defined offers

Merchants are responsible for product claims, delivery, customer support, and applicable legal requirements.

Simple pricing

One flat plan. No CartArmor revenue share.

Shopify displays the current subscription price and billing terms before installation. CartArmor's 14-day access trial starts at first install and is limited to one while the store's trial history is retained.

$0 per-order fees 0% revenue share Shopify payment fees may apply
One flat plan

One Shopify-managed plan.

Reinstalling or approving a later Shopify trial does not restart CartArmor access. Trial history is deleted when Shopify's required shop-redaction process runs, so it cannot be retained to block trials permanently.
