π€ What happens when your Microsoft cart arrives
- You send the link and they can view the cart and all its items on Share-A-Cart.
- Every item, every quantity and every price is right there β in any browser or on a phone, with nothing installed.
- For Microsoft, the recipient will need to install the free Share-A-Cart browser extension in order to load the cart. The extension lets them load every item in a single click.
- They check out at microsoft.com the way they always would. Share-A-Cart's part is over once the items are in their cart.
π Loading your Microsoft cart
They will want the free Share-A-Cart Extension. It loads every item into their own cart in one click, free, with no account behind it. Without it they can still read the whole cart and add items at microsoft.com themselves.

Yes, all of it β every item, quantity and price, in any browser or on a phone.
π± Can they open my Microsoft cart on a phone?

π³ Is the extension free for them?
Free, with no account behind it. Installing it does not sign them up for anything.
π Do they need to be signed in to Microsoft?
To buy, yes β they check out at microsoft.com as themselves, exactly as they would without us.
