Shopify add to cart but no purchase: cart and trust audit

Shoppers show intent by adding to cart, but they do not finish buying.

Cluster: cart-checkout

Audit these first

  • Check for surprise shipping costs, discount confusion, or late policy friction.
  • Make sure the cart reinforces delivery, returns, and support confidence.
  • Remove distractions that compete with checkout completion.
First fix: Treat the cart as a confidence checkpoint. It should reduce uncertainty, not restart the sales pitch.
