CartGenie UPDATE: Big new features that Webflow Ecom is still missing...
A little over a year ago I posted here about CartGenie when we were first launching. So I figured I’d share a quick update because we’ve crossed off a lot of those long-requested features recently!
For anyone who hasn't seen us before: CartGenie is a Webflow-native ecommerce/checkout platform. If you've ever hit the ceiling on what Webflow Ecommerce can actually do or gotten tired of stitching together third-party plugins via Shopify to cover the gaps... that's the itch we're scratching: End-to-end native Webflow stores!
We've had a big few months and wanted to share some of the bigger things that just landed:
Automatic Discounts — Discounts that apply on their own when a cart qualifies, no coupon code needed. Great for volume/bulk pricing, order thresholds, and B2B. If a customer does enter a code, that one wins. This was one of our most-requested features for ages.
Product Bundles — A real bundle product type. Group multiple catalog items into one listing with its own page, title, and price, while inventory, tax, and shipping still get handled per product underneath. Nice for "buy these three and save" without hacking it together on the front end.
Subscription upgrades — A lot here: a new order per renewal, different upfront vs. renewal pricing, variable intervals (every 3 weeks), expiration dates (monthly for 6 months), and more.
Swatches on CMS Lists – Since Webflow recently increased their nested CMS list limits, you can now feature all 3 option sets as swatches / buttons on your store pages!
Pre-Orders — Accept orders before inventory lands. Clearly tagged front and back end, with shipping-timeline notifications. And if an order mixes pre-order and in-stock items, you can ship the ready stuff now.
Partial Fulfillment — Ship available items immediately and keep the rest open until they're ready. Customers get notified which items shipped, with per-package tracking. Pairs really well with the pre-order stuff.
Offline & Custom Payment Methods — Accept payments outside the standard card flow: bank transfers, checks, invoicing, cash on delivery, or whatever custom method you need. Orders come through with the right status so you can reconcile once payment clears.
Upsells (coming soon) — pick which products to offer as upsells across product pages, cart, checkout, and confirmation, triggered automatically when someone views a specific product.
Worth pointing out: none of this exists in Webflow Ecommerce today, and on Shopify most of it means bolting on paid third-party apps.
Happy to answer questions if anyone's curious how any of it works!
