It is important to note that adding products to the cart is one of the essential steps in any purchase. This is why we created this guide to help you earn about the different variety of Add to Cart options available in WooCommerce.

If customers are not able to easily add products to the cart, they will leave your site and look for a more customer-friendly store. It does not matter how good your products are.

WooCommerce URL To Add Product To Cart

Before you proceed, it is important to learn about the default Add to Cart button. All products listed on the shop page have an Add to Cart button.

However, there are different types of products in WooCommerce. Some products do not have an add to cart button. For example, variable products have a Select Options button. This is because there are several variations of the product and a customer needs to choose which one he wants.

If you want to display a product in an interesting manner and invite a customer to buy the product on the spot, you need to create a URL that will be put on the Add to Cart button and allow the customer to buy the displayed product.

Let us see how you can add a custom Add to Cart Button.

Add to Cart Link for Single Product

To create an URL you need to include your domain name and then add ‘?add-to-cart=X’. X stands for the product ID, as shown below:

https://yourdomain.com/?add-to-cart=120

If you want to add product quantity, you just need to add one more element to the URL:

https://yourdomain.com/?add-to-cart=X&quantity=Y

Y stands for the number/quantity of the product.

The links will add the product to the cart but the customer remains on the same page. However, if you want the customer to automatically get to the Your Cart page simply add the cart element to the link.

https://yourdomain.com/cart/?add-to-cart=X

In addition, you can also send the customer to the checkout page instead, simply add checkout:

https://yourdomain.com/checkout/?add-to-cart=X

Add to Cart Link for Variable Product

The procedure is almost the same, but you need to find the ID number of the variation in this case. To get the product ID, go to the product and find the ID of the variation in the variations tab.

For Add to Cart (X = Product ID, Y = Quantity):

https://yourdomain.com/?add-to-cart=X

For adding quantity:

https://yourdomain.com/?add-to-cart=X&quantity=Y

For redirecting customers to the cart page:

https://yourdomain.com/cart/?add-to-cart=x

For redirecting customers to the checkout page:

https://yourdomain.com/checkout/?add-to-cart=x

For redirecting customers to any other page:

https://yourdomain.com/any-page-url/?add-to-cart=X

Add to Cart Link for Grouped Product Type

To create this link, you need the Group Product ID, Bag ID, and Dress ID. You can get all the details by navigating to Products > All Products.

https://yourdomain.com/?add-to-cart=X&quantity[Y]=1&quantity[Z]=1

X = ID of the group product
Y = D of one product from the group
Z = Id of another product from the group.

However, if you want to exclude some product from the cart, just add &quantity[x]=0. In addition, there is no URL without quantity. An error will be displayed because WooCommerce does not recognize the product from the group.
