See every featureRecover carts and increase sales. With Keeper, customers who login across multiple devices will find their shopping cart waiting for them, ready to complete their order. How does it work? When a customer who has started shopping on one device (i.e. their mobile), logs into your store on another device (i.e. their laptop), they’ll find their shopping cart waiting for them.
Shoppers browse across devices, but Shopify carts don’t follow when they switch devices. Persistent Cart prevents lost sales by automatically syncing logged-in customers’ latest carts across devices in the background. No emails, pop-ups, notifications, opt-ins, or code changes — just seamless cart persistence that reduces abandonment, grows AOV, and helps shoppers keep buying instead of starting over.
