General Questions
What is Easy Cart Share?
+
Easy Cart Share is a suite of Chrome extensions that allows you to share your Amazon and Walmart shopping carts with others through secure, shareable links. Recipients can view your cart items and add them to their own cart with one click.
Which platforms are supported?
+
We currently support Amazon (all major regions including .com, .ca, .co.uk, .de, .fr, .it, .es, .co.jp) and Walmart.com. More platforms are planned for the future.
Is Easy Cart Share free to use?
+
Yes! Easy Cart Share is completely free to use. We may include affiliate links in shared carts to support our service, but this doesn't affect your shopping experience or prices.
How do affiliate links work?
+
When you share a cart, we may include affiliate links to support our service. This means we earn a small commission if someone makes a purchase through the shared link. Prices remain the same for you and the recipient - there's no additional cost.

Shared cart shows wrong prices

Prices are captured at the time of sharing and may change. The shared cart shows a disclaimer with the capture time. Recipients always see current prices when they visit the actual product pages.
Some products don't appear in shared cart
+
This can happen with:
• Out-of-stock items
• Region-restricted products
• Items with access limitations
