Click on Smart Cart in the side navigation.
Create or select the Smart Cart you wish to edit.
From here, you can add your custom CSS to modify the appearance and behavior of your Legacy Smart Cart to better suit your store's needs.

Style the Checkout Button, Subtotal Text, and Price in Legacy Smart Cart
The Checkout Button, along with the Subtotal, are crucial elements in the Legacy Smart Cart. By default, these elements may appear in a standard color. Customizing their appearance can help them stand out, encouraging customers to proceed with their purchase and improving the overall shopping experience.
In most cases you can make changes to the styling of your Smart Cart by updating your Rebuy Theme Settings. This allows you to customize the look and feel of your cart to match your brand and website design.

The Before and After images showcased below illustrate the transformation from the default green to a customized appearance. With code, you can modify the Color, Button Border, Roundness, and Font. Also incorporate a Button Hover Effect.
These changes enhance the button's prominence and ensure it aligns seamlessly with your website's overall theme!
