How to add Card Carousel to a Shopify store

Embed Card Carousel on Shopify

01

Create a Card Carousel app for Shopify on Common Ninja

First, create a Shopify Card Carousel app on Common Ninja. On the apps catalog, find the Card Carousel and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Card Carousel app

When you're done creating the Card Carousel app, click on the Save Changes button at the right top corner of the editor. If you don't have an account on Common Ninja, you'll have to register first.

03

Copy the Card Carousel Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Card Carousel app to your Shopify store, click the Add To Website button at the top bar of the Editor. On the window that opens, click the Copy Icon to copy the app embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your Shopify store.

04

Paste the code to your Shopify website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your Shopify store editor and find the HTML field. It is most likely in the form of an HTML/Code widget or module which you can find on the Shopify’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Card Carousel Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Card Carousel app on your Shopify store.

05

Alternative Method 1: Through the HTML option in the text’s editing area.

If you can't find the HTML/Code widget or module, there's another way to put Common Ninja’s Card Carousel app on your Shopify app. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your Shopify store’s HTML code.

If you're having trouble finding a widget or a special part in your text editor where you can add the Embed Code, you can try a different way to add the Card Carousel app to your Shopify store. You can do this by putting it straight into your Shopify store's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Card Carousel widget when you need to present several related items that each combine an image, title, text, and button. It behaves like a sliding strip of mini landing cards, perfect for services, features, blog highlights, or product categories. Visitors can scan through options horizontally, which is comfortable on mobile and desktop, and click directly into deeper pages from each card. This structure keeps content organized and avoids overwhelming users with long vertical lists. It is especially helpful on homepages or overview pages where you want to introduce multiple paths and let visitors choose the one that matches their interests, without clutter or confusion.
