See every featureSaveLayer is a universal save layer for your whole store. Logged-in shoppers save anything: products, variants, collections, pages, and blog posts, into one or more lists synced across your Online Store, headless storefront, and customer account. Saved data is stored natively as Shopify metaobjects in your store, so it stays private and portable, never locked in a third-party database.
Let customers create a Wishlist by saving favorite products to buy later. Wishlist by Square works out of the box—adding a customizable Wishlist button near Add to Cart and saving items automatically. Shoppers can manage their Wishlist and add items to cart anytime. You can track top saved products, Wishlist value, and shopper activity to understand buying intent.
