Enable the Always Available Checkout Button

Steps for enabling the Always Available Checkout Button vary depending on the cart platform used.

Custom Cart Platform

Custom carts must call BoltCheckout.configure() with parameters based on whether there are items in the cart and if an item was just added to cart.

Option 1: Item is Added to Cart

Use the following call to display the Always-Available Checkout Button when a Shopper adds the first item to their cart. This call also animates the mini-cart to signify an item was added.

BoltCheckout.configure(cart, hints, callbacks, {floatingButtonMode: “show_cart”})

Option 2: Items are Pre-existing in Cart

Use the following call to display the Always-Available Checkout Button with the mini-cart hidden until a shopper hovers over the button.

BoltCheckout.configure(cart, hints, callbacks, {floatingButtonMode: “show_car_on_hovert”})

Disable

To disable the Always Available Checkout Button, simply do not call Bolt.Checkout.configure().
