Business owners everywhere recognize that the internet is where many of their future sales will take place. Therefore, it is important have a web store that can keep pace with the modern consumer. While there are lots of shopping carts available, X-Cart is among the best. There’s a reason it’s used in over 100 countries!

X-Cart’s Base Features

X-Cart has established itself as one of the most reliable and effective e-commerce shopping carts available and it has many features which make it appealing to online business owners, (and to their store designers and programmers), including:

  • Open source code – Open source code means that business owners can adapt X-Cart’s program to fit their store’s unique needs.
  • Affordability – The software is so cheap that it is available to businesses of any size.
  • Mobile readiness – Business owners can take comfort in knowing that their stores are completely device-friendly, which opens up even more sales opportunities, and
  • Helpful marketing tools – Shop owners can use easy-to-create coupons and discounts to jump-start sales and lure return customers.

X-Cart Extensions

Though the software is popular as-is, X-Cart continually makes new add-ons available to further increase its usefulness to business owners. Sometimes you will find an X-Cart extension that is free, such as “Sale” and “Bestsellers” which promote your store’s items by applying discounts or identifying your store’s most popular goods.

Other add-ons are well worth their cost, such as the “Abandoned Cart Reminder,” which follows up with customers who didn’t make it through checkout and encourages them to return and finish the sale.
