WooCommerce Fast Cart Plugin

A popup cart is an overlay shopping cart that appears without page navigation. It displays as a slide-out panel or modal window. Popup carts show cart contents, totals, and checkout options. Customers can complete purchases without leaving their current page. This reduces friction and improves conversion rates.

Fast Cart reduces cart abandonment through instant checkout access. The plugin eliminates page loads between shopping and checkout. Customers see their cart immediately after adding products. The one-click checkout removes unnecessary steps from the purchase process.

A mini cart is a compact shopping cart interface that displays without page redirects. Customers access the WooCommerce mini cart by clicking the floating cart icon.

The icon position is customizable to top-right, bottom-right, or center-right. It appears only when products are in the cart. You can customize the color and background, and add text to appear alongside the icon.

To bring customers to the mini cart even faster, you can choose to show the fast cart automatically whenever a product is added. This encourages customers to complete their order straight away.

The plugin also has a [fast_cart] shortcode which you can use to insert the cart icon anywhere else on your site, such as your WordPress site's header.

Yes! Direct checkout lets you skip the cart page entirely and display the checkout form immediately. This is an excellent idea if you need a quick way for customers to buy one product at a time. When enabled, WooCommerce direct checkout works in three steps:

1. The customer adds a product to their cart.
2. The popup checkout opens immediately, either on the right hand side of the page or as a centered popup.
3. The customer enters their details and completes payment without additional clicks.

Yes, WooCommerce Fast Cart gives you complete flexibility. You can use it as an additional option alongside your regular checkout, giving customers the choice. Alternatively, you can replace your standard cart and checkout pages entirely with the Fast Cart popup. When you choose the replacement option, all cart and checkout links will open the popup instead of separate pages.

WooCommerce Fast Cart supports all major payment gateways including WooCommerce Payments, Stripe, PayPal Payments, and many more. The popup checkout is compatible with any payment method that works with standard WooCommerce checkout.

The popup checkout displays all the shipping options you've configured in WooCommerce. Whether you use flat rate, free shipping, local pickup, or custom shipping methods added through plugins, they'll all appear in the Fast Cart. Your shipping options work exactly the same as in your regular checkout.

Yes, Fast Cart is fully compatible with the block-based cart and checkout introduced in WooCommerce 8.3. The block-based checkout uses WooCommerce's modern editor system for easier customization.

The popup checkout displays the same fields as your main checkout page. You can customize these fields using any method that works with standard WooCommerce, including the Checkout Field Editor plugin. Any changes you make to your checkout fields will automatically appear in the Fast Cart.

Related products appear in the 'You may also be interested in' section of the popup cart. These cross-sell products are based on what's currently in the cart and can significantly increase your average order value. You set up cross-sells in the product editor, and customers can add them directly from the popup without interrupting their checkout flow.

No! Fast Cart is designed for performance. The mini cart loads after your main page content, which means it doesn't affect your initial page load times. This asynchronous loading keeps your site fast while adding powerful checkout functionality. The plugin is also fully compatible with performance optimization plugins like WP Rocket and Autoptimize.

We have tested WooCommerce Fast Cart with a range of free and premium themes and are confident it will look great with your theme. Our plugin support includes helping with theme-related conflicts.
