Features of Instantio (Free version)

Instantio comes up with tons of awesome features:

Preview Styles / Cart Options

Instantio (Free) comes up with 3 different Preview Styles:

WooCommerce Popup Cart: When a customer adds an item to the cart, a cart popup appears displaying a cart summary, coupon application option, and buttons for the cart and checkout. Each button directs the user to the appropriate cart or checkout page.
WooCommerce Side Cart: Upon adding an item to the cart, a side drawer emerges, offering similar features: cart summary, coupon application, and navigation buttons for cart and checkout.
WooCommerce Direct Checkout Button: If a customer selects an item, a direct-to-checkout side button appears. This button leads to the checkout page. Direct Checkout for WooCommerce reduces the steps in the default WooCommerce Checkout page. This option helps store owners boost their sales by redirecting customers directly to the Checkout page. On average, the checkout process would take only 15 seconds.
