How to add Cart Drawer
ConvertX Cart Drawer is a customizable slide-out cart for Shopify. It is also referred to as an optimized cart or dynamic cart because it combines cart display, upsell surfaces, trust modules, and checkout-focused elements in one place.
Unlike a product page App Block, Cart Drawer is powered by the ConvertX App Embed and reacts to storefront cart triggers.
Cart Drawer is the canonical ConvertX cart experience. It does not need a product page App Block.
How Cart Drawer works
Once enabled and published, Cart Drawer can:
Open from cart icons or cart triggers on the storefront
Display cart items, discounts, subtotal, and checkout controls
Show conversion modules such as recommended products or shipping protection
Add trust and urgency elements inside the cart
Before you start
Make sure that:
The ConvertX App Embed is enabled
Cart Drawer is active in ConvertX
Your theme has cart links or cart buttons shoppers can use
What Cart Drawer includes
The Cart Drawer editor covers several areas:

Troubleshooting
Check the ConvertX App Embed, confirm Cart Drawer is enabled, and verify the theme exposes cart links or cart triggers on the storefront.
Review the section or footer module order, enabled state, and any plan restriction that applies to premium functionality.
Refine width, background, spacing, title, and footer styling so the drawer feels consistent with the active Shopify theme.
Best practices
Test the full add-to-cart to checkout flow on the live theme
Keep the drawer focused on checkout progress and a small number of conversion modules
Add trust, urgency, and upsells only when each one stays visually clear
