Cart Lock

VKT Cart Lock

A hard cooling-off lock for your cart: the first checkout click starts a timer and checkout stays blocked until it ends. No skip, no snooze, no early unlock β€” the timer lives in extension storage and keeps running across tabs and browser restarts. All data stays local.

  • Sale quiet period β€” Black Friday, Prime Day and Double 11 extend the cooldown to 72 hours

⭐ Advanced Features (License)

  • Custom cooldowns β€” anywhere from 10 minutes to 30 days

  • Add-to-cart start β€” the timer starts when an item enters the cart
  • Unlimited messages β€” bounded only by the cross-device sync budget (~60 lines)
  • Quiet hours β€” no sound during chosen hours; the lock still works
  • Confirm after expiry β€” one final "I still want it" click after the timer ends
  • Cross-device sync β€” settings and timers follow your Chrome / Edge account
  • 12-month reports β€” monthly trend, site ranking and emotion breakdown
  • CSV export & JSON backup β€” take your history and settings anywhere
