Online Shopping Reimagined
Remember when going to the mall was a thing we did together in person and in the same space? Well, thanks to busy schedules, new technology, and the pandemic, life as we know it has changed — almost everything is purchased online.
CoCarting was designed to transition online shopping into a virtual “shopping” event. You can now reconnect with groups of trusted friends and family in a fun, interactive, and real-time shopping experience — anywhere, anytime.
Why CoCarting?
CoCarting is a shopping platform, designed to enable real-time online shopping experiences via chat anywhere, anytime. It also functions as a gift registry, allowing users to collaborate on wish lists for any occasion.
Curate products in a shared WishList, where co-shoppers advise, assist, and vote on products all while spending quality time together. Whether you’re planning your Christmas list, birthday wish list, or gifts for a special event or celebration, CoCarting makes it easy and enjoyable.

Our Story
When our founder, Lily Meng, learned that she was going to be a first-time auntie, she couldn’t wait to shower her newborn niece with adorable baby outfits, toys, and all the nursery rhyme cuteness that follows. She wanted to go shopping with her sister-in-law to help dress (and spoil) the new family member, but they were halfway around the world from one another!
She soon realized her sister-in-law, a sleep-deprived new mother, barely had time to reply to a text message, let alone go down the rabbit hole laundry list of hyperlinks to baby clothes. Her longing for connection, frustration, along with witnessing the pandemic-related isolation within her own family, inspired her to create CoCarting — a destination to engage her global community of friends and family, help them all keep connected, and shop with and for one another no matter where — day or night.
Now, CoCarting is not just about shopping; it’s about making gift-giving easier with features like WishLists and the ability to make a family gift registry, ensuring that everyone gets what they truly want while keeping the shopping experience personal and fun.
