Subtotal

What Is It?

The Subtotal section controls how the cart total is displayed in the footer — including what price information is shown and how it looks.

Setup Walkthrough

Step 1: Open Subtotal Settings

From the Cart Editor, click Subtotal under Footer in the left panel.

Step 2: Configure Settings

Under Settings:

• Label — the heading shown next to the total amount (default: Subtotal)
• Show compare-at price — displays the original total before discounts, with a strikethrough
• Show savings — shows how much the customer saves in total
• Label (savings label) — the text shown alongside the savings amount; supports the {{savings}} variable to insert the actual value (default: Save {{savings}})

Step 3: Configure Displays

Under Displays:

• Font weight — choose Bold or Normal for the subtotal text
• Font size — drag the slider to set the text size (8px to 24px)

Troubleshooting

Q1: The savings label does not show the correct amount

Make sure the savings label field contains the {{savings}} variable. Without it, the saved amount will not be inserted into the text.

Q2: The compare-at price does not appear

Confirm Show compare-at price is checked and that your products have a compare-at price set in Shopify. If no compare-at price is set on a product, there is nothing to display.
