Every brand's customers stop at a different point before they pay. A gifting brand's shoppers want to know the order will arrive in time. A new brand's shoppers want proof that others trust it. In a festive sale, shoppers need a reason to buy now instead of waiting.
How do we customise the cart and checkout experience to your brand, more than what we already provide?
Custom components let you decide what your store needs to convert more and sell more, and our team builds it into your Shopflo cart and checkout. Your developers don't need to do anything.
What Brands Have Built
Here are some custom components already live on Shopflo stores. Use them as a starting point for what your store needs.
Delivery date checker (HUFT)
Shoppers enter their pincode in the cart and see when each item will arrive, so gift orders don't wait on a delivery question.
Countdown timer (Kiwi Kisan, Sneakare)
A timer in the cart shows how long the offer lasts, so shoppers pay now instead of later. For a sale, it can run until the sale ends or show only on sale products.
Trust strip (Iris Cosmetics)
A strip at the bottom of the cart shows delivery time, COD and free shipping, so shoppers who don't know the brand yet feel safe buying.
Donation (HUFT)
Shoppers can give Rs 25 to Rs 250 to the HUFT Foundation in one tap. It connects shoppers to what the brand stands for, and shoppers who back your cause come back to buy again.
What You Can Build
These are the kinds of components we build today. If what you need isn't listed, ask us anyway.

Where a Component Can Appear
Cart: the top of the cart, above or below the items, near coupons, in the upsell area, at the bottom, and on the empty cart.
Checkout: the login step, the address step, and the payments step.
A component can show to every shopper, or only when certain products, a collection or a cart value are in the cart, or only between set dates for a sale.
How to Get One
Step 1: Write to us at support@shopflo.com with what you want to build. A screenshot or reference helps.
Step 2: Your Shopflo team confirms what is possible and what else we need from you.
Step 3: Our team builds it and shares a preview for your approval.
Step 4: It goes live once you approve it. For changes later, or to switch it off after a sale, message your Shopflo team.
A Few Things to Keep in Mind
Build for conversion, not decoration. The best components remove a reason to hesitate or give a reason to buy. Keep images to what the shopper needs.
Check the built-in features first. Banners, cart milestones, upsells and one-click add-ons are already in your dashboard and you can change them yourself. We will point you to them if they fit.
