Quick Cart

Quick Cartis the fast path from “I know what I need” to “it’s in the basket and going to checkout.” No catalogue browsing, no product pages — just SKUs, quantities, and a one-click handoff to Shopify checkout.

When to use it

Pick Quick Cart when:

• You already have a parts list (from a spec, an old quote, a customer email)
• You want to order right now, not later
• You’re replenishing van stock and just need quantities

If the customer is still deciding and needs to see a price first, use Quick Quote instead.

Add SKUs

1. Go to /quick-cart.
2. Use the catalogue picker on the right to find a SKU, or type it directly into a new line. SKU matching is case-insensitive — type how you remember it.
3. Set the quantity. The line subtotal updates as you go. Add as many lines as you need.
4. Review the running cart subtotal at the bottom — all ex VAT.

Push to checkout

When you’re ready, click Send to cart. This builds a Shopify cart containing every Quick Cart line and redirects you to the Shopify checkout page. From there it’s standard Shopify flow: shipping address, payment, confirmation.

FireAgent doesn’t hold payment details — Shopify does. The order is logged in your Shopify customer account and emailed in the usual way.

Switching to a quote mid-cart

Halfway through a Quick Cart and realised the customer wants a quote instead? Copy the SKUs and quantities into Quick Quote — same shape, same catalogue picker, but the output is a quote PDF and email rather than a checkout session.

If something goes wrong

• SKU not found — the catalogue picker has autocomplete; the SKU may have a different spelling. Try a partial search by product name.
• Line item shows a different price than you expected — prices come from the live catalogue, not the screen on which they were last quoted. If a customer is expecting an old price, use Quick Quote and override the line price.
• Checkout fails at Shopify— that’s a Shopify-side issue (often a card declined, or shipping not configured for the postcode). Shopify will give a specific error; it’s typically self-explanatory.
