Variation

If we redesign the minicart to reduce clutter and improve layout hierarchy, then conversion rate will increase because a cleaner, more focused cart overlay reduces distractions and improves navigation on mobile.

What We Changed

  • Cleaned up the mini cart.
  • Reduced top section space to improve content visibility.
  • Repositioned cross-sells to decrease visual competition.
  • Integrated free shipping message more subtly.
