Wix Stores: Adding and Setting Up the Mini Cart

3 min read
By default, Wix Stores comes with a Mini Cart which opens on the side of your page. Depending on your setup, customers get to the Mini Cart in two ways. 
First, when the Cart Icon is clicked, by default it is set to direct to the Mini Cart. From there, customers can view items and then either keep on shopping or click View Cart to go to the Cart Page.
Another way customers can get to the Mini Cart is from the Product Page. The "Add to Cart" is set by default to direct to the Mini Cart.
Note:
The mini-cart does not appear in the mobile view.
