With ReelPik, your customers can shop directly from your videos without ever leaving the player. They can browse product variants and see recommendations exactly like they would on a standard Shopify product page.

To create the best shopping experience, you can customize what happens immediately after a customer clicks the Add to cart button.

First, navigate to Customization > Player and locate the button configuration section.

  1. Find the Product card > CTA button > Button action

  2. Select Add to cart

  3. Once selected, the "Post add-to-cart" settings will automatically appear

Our app currently support five different actions to suit your store's specific flow:

1. No direction

  • What happens: When a customer clicks the button, a small "Success" notification (toast) appears.

Note: The customer will need to refresh the page manually to see the updated item count in their cart header.

2. Open cart page

  • What happens: The customer is immediately redirected to your store's full cart page (yourstore.com/cart)

3. Reload page

  • What happens: The entire storefront reloads. This ensures the cart quantity updates automatically.

4. Open cart drawer

  • What happens: The side-cart drawer slides out automatically, showing the product and quantity just added.

  • We support most popular Shopify themes, including Dawn, Sense, Origin, Impulse, Prestige, Horizon, and more...

Note: To use this, your theme must have a "Cart drawer" feature enabled in your Shopify Theme customizer.

5. Go to checkout

  • What happens: This is the fastest route to a sale. The product is added to the cart, and the customer is sent straight to the Shopify checkout page.

Need help?

  • If you use a custom or highly modified theme, our app may need a slight adjustment to recognize your drawer.
