How to use Web SDK?

Welcome to the Web SDK documentation for controlling the Cart Widget from your JavaScript code. With our Web SDK, you can listen to various events, open or close the Cart Widget, and perform various actions to enhance your users' shopping experience. This guide will help you understand and utilize the Web SDK effectively..

Available Functions


Our Web SDK provides three types of functions: Event Listener Functions, Information Fetch Functions, and Action Functions. These functions allow you to interact with the Cart Widget from your JavaScript code.

Event Listener Function


These functions listen for specific actions in our widgets and execute a callback function that you define when those actions occur.

corner.on(eventName,callback)


Inside Corner Cart, we offer a handful of events that you can use to track specific actions:

onCartEdit: Triggered when any type of edit occurs within the cart.

onCartCtaClick: Triggered when the Call to Action (CTA) button on the cart is clicked.
onUpsellCtaClick: Triggered when the CTA button on upsell products is clicked.
onDiscountCodeAdd: Triggered when a user adds a discount code.
onDiscountCodeRemove: Triggered when a user removes a discount code.
onSatcCtaClick: Triggered when the CTA button on the Sticky Add to Cart is clicked.
onCartGoalMilestoneAchieve: Triggered when user achieves a new cart goal Milestone
onCartGoalMilestoneLost: Triggered when user looses a cart goal Milestone which they previously achieved.
