Claim 8:
9. A device, comprising:
a non-transitory memory storing instructions; and
a processor configured to execute the instructions to cause the device to:
responsive to determining an abandonment of a first digital shopping cart at a first merchant platform by a user during a first session, store first shopping cart data associated with the first digital shopping cart, wherein the first merchant platform is associated with a first data format for elements of the first shopping cart data for display using a first interface layout;
detect a second session where the user creates a second digital shopping cart at a second merchant platform that is different from the first merchant platform, wherein the second digital shopping cart is associated with second shopping cart data, and wherein the second merchant platform is associated with a second data format for elements of the second shopping cart data for display using a second interface layout;
responsive to detection of the second session, generate a unified view for the first digital shopping cart and the second digital shopping cart, the unified view for display during a checkout process in the second session at the second merchant platform, wherein generating the unified view comprises converting the elements of the first shopping cart data to the second data format for display using the second interface layout of the second merchant platform;
create a shadow digital shopping cart including the elements of the first digital shopping cart based on inputting the elements of the first shopping cart to the shadow digital shipping cart without a user input or navigation to the first merchant platform by the user, the shadow digital shopping cart for processing at the first merchant platform; and
communicate with a second merchant server associated with the second merchant platform to process elements of the second digital shopping cart and communicate with a first merchant server associated with the first merchant platform to process elements of the shadow digital shopping cart.
