The best Shopify cart drawer apps in 2026

The best Shopify cart drawer apps in 2026 are Cartify, Kaching Cart Drawer, AMP Slide Cart, Essent Cart Drawer, AOV.ai Cart Drawer and iCart. Pick Cartify if you want to design the cart by chat and A/B test two carts, AMP Slide Cart, Essent or AOV.ai if you want a free plan, and Kaching or iCart for a simple cart priced by orders.

All six add a slide-out cart with upsells and a progress bar for free shipping or gifts. They differ in how you build the cart, what is on the free plan and how the price grows.

We make Cartify. We've tried to be fair; here is when another app is the better pick. Facts about other apps come from their Shopify App Store listings, checked on 24 October 2026.

Honest picks

When another app is the better pick

Cartify is not the right app for every store. If one of these is you, start with the app named next to it.

You want a free plan
AMP Slide Cart (free forever plan), Essent (30 orders a month) or AOV.ai (30 orders a month). Cartify has no free plan.
You want a price that doesn't change with sales
AMP Slide Cart's paid plans, which its listing says never increase with sales. Cartify's monthly plans add a usage charge; its yearly Pro plan does not.
You also want the cart page replaced, not only the drawer
iCart lists a cart popup and a full cart. Cartify replaces the drawer only.
You want a sticky add to cart bar on product pages
Essent includes one.
You want subscription upsells in the cart
AMP Slide Cart lists them on its Growth plan.
You want upsells picked automatically from order data
AOV.ai or iCart. Cartify uses upsell rules you set, and AI Upsells suggests ideas for you to choose from.

Not in this list. UpCart, Rebuy and Monster Cart are not ranked here. When we checked on 24 October 2026, their Shopify App Store pages said each app is not currently available on the App Store. UpCart alternatives and Rebuy alternatives.

Questions, answered

What is the best cart drawer app for Shopify?
Cartify if you want to design the cart by chat, copy a cart from a screenshot and A/B test two carts. AMP Slide Cart, Essent or AOV.ai if a free plan matters most. Kaching Cart Drawer or iCart for a simple cart priced by orders.
Is there a free cart drawer app for Shopify?
Yes. AMP Slide Cart has a free forever plan for the basic cart, and Essent and AOV.ai have free plans for 30 orders a month. Cartify has no free plan; it has a 7-day free trial.
Does a free shipping bar give free shipping by itself?
Not always. In Cartify, a free-shipping tier shows the progress and the message only, and you create the free-shipping discount in Shopify with the same minimum. Check how your cart app handles it before you promise free shipping.
Can I A/B test my cart drawer?
Yes, with Cartify: create cart B, choose the share of shoppers who see it, and compare orders, conversion and revenue per cart. Order-discount tiers must be the same in both carts, because Shopify applies them store-wide.
What happened to UpCart and Rebuy?
When we checked on 24 October 2026, their Shopify App Store pages said each app is not currently available on the App Store. Stores that use them should contact the developer, Rokt for UpCart and Rebuy for Rebuy, about support.
Where do these ratings and prices come from?
From each app's public Shopify App Store listing, checked on 24 October 2026. Prices and ratings change, so check the listing before you install. Claims about Cartify come from our own app page and merchant guide.
