Slide Cart: Empty Cart Offers

At a glance: Empty cart offers let you show a promotional message or upsell when a customer opens Slide Cart with nothing in it, turning an empty state into a conversion opportunity.

What are empty cart offers?

By default, an empty cart just shows a message like "Your cart is empty." Empty cart offers let you replace that blank state with something more useful — a featured product, a promotional banner, or a CTA that drives customers back to shopping.

What you can show in an empty cart

• A featured product recommendation (with an Add to Cart button)
• A promotional message or banner
• A link back to a collection or sale page

How to set up an empty cart offer

1. In the Slide Cart dashboard, go to Features → Empty Cart.
2. Toggle on Enable empty cart offer.
3. Choose what to display: a product recommendation or a custom message/banner.
4. If using a product recommendation, select the product you want to feature.
5. Save your settings.

The offer will now appear automatically whenever a customer opens their cart before adding any products.

Tips

• Use your best-selling or highest-margin product as the empty cart recommendation.
• Pair with a cart announcement (e.g., "Free shipping over $50!") to give customers an immediate reason to add to cart.
• Available on Growth, Pro, and Enterprise plans.
