Save cart (for iOS) in PayPal Zettle
About save cart
The save cart feature allows you to put together a customer’s order in the cart and hold it until they’re ready to pay. Once saved, the shopping cart is freed up for another sale.
Saved carts can be opened from any logged in device, so staff members can work on the carts from different devices.
Saving a cart
When you have items in the shopping cart, you’ll see a ‘Save’ button. Tap it when you’re ready to save.
You can add a description to a saved cart so it’s easier for you to find it later. Alternatively, select ‘Table’ to add a table number.
You can only get to your saved carts when the shopping cart is empty. Tap 'View saved carts' and select a cart to open it.
You can open, make changes, and close a saved cart as many times as you like. When your customer is ready to pay, simply open a saved cart and go on to payment as usual.
Frequently asked questions
Managing saved carts
Can I add or remove items from a saved cart?
