Customer Project Choice

In this article we cover how to set up your Customer Project Choice automation and widget.


You can have one active Customer project choice on a store. It is available on every business plan.


Select 2 or 3 projects and enter an amount of at least 1 for each. You can choose up to 3 projects.


Each option has to meet the minimum purchase price before you can save.


Finally, on the summary, mark one project as Default. This is the project customers start on. Pick the project you most want every order to fund.


Once you have decided on all of your settings for the automation, click on Save to set the automation live.


Each online order supports one project from your list. You pay for the project the customer picked or the default if no choice is made. Shop Pay and Buy now do not show the picker, and those orders support your default project. Point of sale orders do not create this impact.


The automation will then appear on your Manage Impact page within the Automations tab.


2. Setup your cart widget


To enable your customers to choose a project you will need to have an active cart widget.


If you already have a cart widget active then you can skip this step. By enabling the automation we will automatically add the project choice to your existing cart widget.


Head to Engagement hub -> Badges & Widgets


Next click on Cart and choose the cart widget you would like to add. Click on Use Widget. In the overlay select Shopify Blocks and then choose the Shopify store that you want to add the widget to. Finally click on Proceed to Shopify


All widgets automatically translate based on your store language and the users browser locale. You can learn more about our supported languages here.


Within your Shopify theme editor, head to the cart page and add the cart badge to the page. We recommend adding it above the Checkout button. The cart shows the impact the order will create with the projects you configured. Your default is already selected.


If you have a cart drawer rather than the cart page then follow this guide to quickly add it to your store


On Shopify Plus you can also show the project choices in the checkout, alongside the cart. An empty cart does not show the options


Save your theme and make sure it's published. From now on your customers can choose a project.
