How Caddy Pro extends the cart

Caddy Pro adds analytics, rewards, promotion rules, and display controls to Caddy - WooCommerce Side Cart & Free Shipping Bar. The underlying Caddy add-on replaces the standard cart experience with a sticky, responsive AJAX side cart. Shoppers can review entries, change quantities, apply coupons, and continue toward checkout without loading a separate cart page. Cart operations use the WooCommerce Store API, with reactive updates and server-synced cart state.

Rules, recommendations, and rewards

• Cart analytics: review cart activity in the Pro dashboard.
• Reward tiers: configure multiple levels of free shipping, free gifts, and discounts.
• Automated workflows: trigger product recommendations, popup notifications, or automatically applied coupons based on cart contents, cart total, product category, page, or customer role.
• Recommendation rules: set product exclusions and fallback rules, and hide out-of-stock products.
• Subscription offers: display product subscription upsells in the cart when using the All Products for WooCommerce Subscriptions extension.

Messages and display settings

Add an announcement bar to the cart, show notices when products or saved items are added or removed, promote custom coupon offers, and set a welcome message for new customers. Caddy Pro includes seven cart icon styles and more than 30 color settings. You can reposition the cart bubble, hide Caddy on selected pages, and exclude items from the free shipping meter.

Pro settings also let you show save-for-later buttons on product pages and shop archives, and control their placement on shop archives.

Features in the Caddy cart

The base cart includes in-cart upsells and cross-sells, a free shipping progress meter, save-for-later functionality for logged-in users, quick AJAX add-to-cart actions, navigation links, Elementor widgets, and a floating cart bubble with a live quantity indicator. Its interface uses the WordPress Interactivity API and WooCommerce Store API, with no jQuery dependency.
