CartSpy shows you each shopper on your Shopify store the moment they add a product to their cart, reach checkout, or complete an order. Not a chart of yesterday's totals. One cart at a time, with the products in it, while the shopper is still there.

The Live View is a feed of your storefront, newest event first. Each line is one shopper doing one thing.
The product, the variant, the price and the shopper's location appear as soon as the item goes into the cart.
See when a cart turns into a checkout, and which carts get that far. The gap between the two is where most stores lose money.
The order lands in the same feed with its number, so you can follow one shopper from first add to paid order.
Traffic source, UTM campaign and search term sit on the cart, so a live cart from a paid campaign is visible as exactly that.
Open any shopper to see everything in the cart, what was removed, and the sequence that led there.
Bot sessions are separated out, so the live feed and the counts around it are people, not crawlers.
Three steps, about two minutes, nothing to paste into your theme.
Shopify's own analytics are good at telling you what happened across everyone, averaged over a day. They are not built to show you the shopper who is on your store right now, with three products in their cart, deciding. Live cart tracking is that view.
A product that gets added to carts all afternoon but never ordered is a broken variant, a shipping surprise, or a price that looks wrong next to the competition. In a daily report it is a slightly lower conversion rate. In the live feed it is obvious within the hour.
Sessions from an ad are easy to count. Carts from an ad are what matter. Because the traffic source sits on each live cart, you can tell a campaign that brings buyers from one that brings clicks before the month's budget is spent.
Which products get paired, where shoppers hesitate, how long a cart sits before checkout. None of that is visible in totals. All of it is visible one shopper at a time.
When a cart does not make it, CartSpy keeps it with its contents. That is the abandoned cart analytics side of the app, and it is built from the same events as the live feed.
Yes. Events reach CartSpy within seconds of the shopper's action and the Live View updates on its own while it is open. You are watching the storefront, not refreshing a report.
No. CartSpy uses Shopify's web pixel, which is registered when you install the app. Your theme is not modified, and uninstalling leaves nothing behind.
Yes. Each cart shows its products, variants and prices, and you can open a shopper to see the full cart and how it changed.
Yes. Referrer, UTM campaign and search term are attached to the cart when they are known, and location is shown for every shopper.
Yes. The Live View is built for a phone as much as a desktop, so you can keep an eye on your store from the Shopify mobile app.
Essential is $7.99 a month and Advanced is $14.99 a month, each with a 7-day free trial. See what each plan includes.
Install, and the live view fills as soon as someone adds to their cart.
