We've added functionality that allows products to be automatically added to a user's cart when they visit your page through a specific link. This opens up new possibilities for targeted marketing campaigns, email promotions, and direct product links.
How It Works:
The feature uses URL query parameters to automatically add items to your user's shopping cart:
- ?addToCart=true: Activates the cart pre-population
- &upc=[product UPC]: Specifies which product to add. The UPC can be found in the My Products section of your Shoppable Dashboard.
- &quantity=[number]: Sets the quantity
- &variation=false: Handles product variations
Example Implementation
Current Status
This feature is currently available in both our staging environment and our production environment. If you're interested in incorporating this into your marketing strategies, we'd be happy to discuss implementation and potential use cases.
Marketing Applications:
- Direct email campaign links with pre-selected products
- Social media promotions with instant cart additions
- Targeted landing pages for specific product campaigns
- Streamlined customer journey from ads to checkout
