How to save to Basket on any device

What can I save to Basket?

You can save items from just about anywhere online to Basket. We’re compatible with hundreds of thousands of ecommerce stores and shopping apps. All you need to do is ‘share’ the product to the Basket app, in much the same way as you’d share something you found online to a friend via WhatsApp say. When the product you’ve shared includes a title, image and price we’ll add that to Basket too, if there are multiple images we’ll add as many as we can.

We like to think of Basket as being the perfect visual bookmarking tool for shopping, in some cases there might not be a price available, let’s say you’re wanting to save a new article about a soon to be released product. Try sharing this page to Basket and we’ll grab the image and the title for you for ease of later reference.

The key thing is that if you can share what you’re looking at, you can save it to Basket. Let’s look at each platform separately:‍
