How it sells itself

GridCart replaces variant dropdowns with a size by color grid on the product page. Shoppers see every combination at once, enter a quantity in each cell, and add the whole selection to the cart with one button, through Shopify's own cart rather than a custom checkout.

The app streamlines access to your products, eliminating the need for users to navigate to individual product pages. It enhances user flexibility and efficiency, saving valuable time. With our "Quick View" button, Quickview and Color Swatch features instantly display all essential product details in a convenient popup window with just one click.

Key points
  • Size by color grid with a quantity field in every cell
  • Add all to cart in one click, through Shopify's own cart
  • Live preview on your own product before publishing
  • Quantity rules: minimum, step, and maximum per line
  • Instantly view essential information with a single click using the "Quick View"
  • Automated variant image swatch
  • Upload custom image and color swatches
