Alpha Shopping Cart
Managing your shopping cart
Shopping Cart
Manage items before checkout.
Adding Items
From a product page:
- Select a quantity (1–999)
- Click Add to Cart
- The cart badge in the header updates
Adding the same product again increases its quantity in the cart.
Viewing Cart
Open the cart via the cart icon in the shop header.
Cart Contents
Each line shows:
| Column | Shows |
|---|---|
| Product | Name and category |
| Price | Unit price |
| Quantity | Editable amount (1–999) |
| Subtotal | Line total |
Cart Summary
| Line | Calculation |
|---|---|
| Subtotal | Sum of line totals |
| Shipping | Flat rate, or Free above the shop's free-shipping threshold |
| Total | Subtotal + shipping |
When shipping is not yet free, the summary shows how much more you need to add to qualify for free shipping (if the shop has a threshold configured).
Managing Cart

Cart Persistence
The cart is stored in your browser (local storage), separately per shop:
- No sign-in is needed to fill a cart
- It persists across sessions in the same browser
- It is not synced across devices or browsers
Signing in is required at checkout, not for managing the cart.
