NEW: Discount Code Field in Cart Drawer

We're excited to announce a highly requested feature is now live in EliteCart: a native discount code field integrated right into your cart drawer!

Why This Matters

Previously, customers had to navigate to checkout to apply discount codes, creating unnecessary friction in the buying process.

What's New

🎯 Apply Discounts Without Leaving the Cart

Your customers can now enter and apply discount codes directly from the cart drawer, keeping them engaged and reducing the steps to purchase.

🎨 Fully Customizable Design

  • Choose between an always-visible field or a discrete, collapsible version that expands on click

  • Customize button and input colors to match your brand perfectly

  • All text is fully customizable and supports multiple languages

📱 Optimized for All Devices

The discount field is responsive and works beautifully on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices, ensuring a consistent experience for all your customers.

Real-Time Validation

  • Instant feedback when codes are applied

  • Clear error messages for invalid or expired codes

  • Immediate cart total updates when discounts are applied successfully

Multiple Discounts & Shipping Discounts

  • Customers can apply multiple discounts

  • Customs can also apply shipping discounts (even though savings only show at checkout)
