Cart form

A Cart Form lets you collect extra information from customers before they checkout, like special instructions, order notes, gift messages, etc. With Powerful Contact Form Builder you can build a cart form fast, then attach it to your store cart page.

ℹ️ Before You Begin

• 📦 Cart Form is available only on the Premium plan (or higher).

• ⚠️ Each store can create only one cart form.

• 🛒 Cart Form works with your theme’s default cart page. If you use a custom checkout flow or non-standard cart template (via a 3rd-party app), cart form may not work correctly.

🧩 How the Cart Form Works

⭐ 1 — Customer fills in the Cart Form

When shoppers are on the cart page, they see your cart form fields — for example:

• “How did you hear about us?”

• “Delivery date”

• “Message”

• “Agree to terms & conditions”

⭐ 2 — The form is submitted when the shopper clicks Checkout

Unlike a normal form, customers do not press a “Submit” button. The form is automatically submitted the moment they click the Checkout button.

⭐ 3 — You can view the Cart Form data inside the order

When the order is placed, the cart form answers appear inside the Additional Details section of the Shopify order page.
