Carts

A Cart contains the product and custom cart items that a user may wish to purchase. Once a Cart is ready for Checkout, you can use the Checkout endpoint to convert the cart to an order.

{% hint style="info" %} Adding, modifying or removing any cart items, custom items or promotions will always return the cart meta, caculated using the calculation method. This is useful to update the client with up-to-date totals. {% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %} We'll automatically delete carts 7 days after they were last updated. {% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %} If you do not pass a X-MOLTIN-CURRENCY header specifying what currency you would like the cart to use, the products in the cart will be converted to your default currency. {% endhint %}
