Can the Add to Cart button be a text link instead?

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I am currently designing a custom shopfront for my artworks and would love to know if I can include ‘Add to Cart’ as a simple text link rather than a button? I can't seem to find any previous posts on this topic, and would appreciate it if anyone can shed some light on this.

Thanks,
Rhonda

You could do this with some CSS, but I don’t recommend it because it goes against experience design principles. On the Product Detail Page (PDP) the ‘Add to Cart’ button is the primary ‘Call to Action’ and should always be a button to make this action more visible than links to other information.
