What Is the Abandonment Rate for Shopify Carts?
The average cart abandonment rate on Shopify stores sits between 70 and 75%. Mobile is higher, typically 80 to 85%. Fashion and apparel stores see rates above 80%. These figures are consistent with the broader ecommerce average. Shopify’s platform does not significantly change the structural reasons customers abandon. What changes outcomes is checkout flow design, shipping cost visibility, and recovery email timing after abandonment occurs.
