🏃 Instant page
What is Instant page?
When customers hover over a link, they almost always click it. Instant page uses that moment to quietly load the page in the background. By the time they actually click, the page is ready to go — feeling instant.
This is especially noticeable on product cards, menu items, and "Learn more" links.
Why use Instant page?
- Near-instant navigation — the next page is already loaded by the time customers click.
- Smoother shopping — most noticeable on product cards, menus, and "Learn more" links, where browsing speeds up.
- Higher engagement — faster page transitions keep customers clicking deeper into your store.
- Safe by design — risky links (like logout) are automatically skipped.
