Is there an extension for transferring Amazon carts to other accounts?

Question

So I've spent like three hours picking out stuff for our annual retreat next week. I'm doing this for a small non-profit in Seattle and I've got about 45 items in my cart right now-everything from napkins to some fancy coffee pods and weirdly specific team building games. The problem is I accidentally did all this on my personal account instead of the company one. My boss needs to be the one to actually hit buy because of the tax-exempt status we have set up on the business account and I really dont want to manually search and re-add every single thing. It would take forever and I'm super busy with other prep.

I did a bit of digging and found this thing called Share-A-Cart and another one that just says Cart Sharing but the reviews are all over the place.

Share-A-Cart seems okay but I heard it crashes a lot lately

Some people say these apps are security risks for your account

I tried the Wish List method but it makes you add items one by one anyway

I'm mostly confused because some people say these extensions only work if both people have them installed which wont work for my boss. He is not tech savvy at all and isnt gonna install some random plugin just for this one order. Is there a reliable extension or maybe a hidden Amazon feature that just lets me move the whole cart to a different login without all the extra steps?

> Some people say these apps are security risks for your account I had a similar headache last month trying to move a huge list for a family reunion. Unfortunately, Share-A-Cart was a total letdown for me and kept glitching out mid-transfer. Building on the earlier suggestion, I actually tried Cart To Link instead. It worked way better because it just makes one link and your boss doesnt even need to install anything on his end to open it.

Stumbled upon this this morning and man, I had this exact same headache last fall while setting up a fundraiser. I spent ages finding specific low-cost supplies only to realize I was on my personal account instead of the foundations. It was such a waste of time and basically doubled the labor cost of my day. I looked at tools but felt so uneasy about the privacy side... just ended up screenshotting everything.

I've been managing business orders on Amazon for ages and you're right to be cautious. Most of these extensions are pretty sketchy because they scrape your session data, which is a massive security hole for a non-profit. I would suggest keeping these things in mind before you try any random cart sharer:

Stay away from anything that requires both users to install the plugin. If your boss wont touch it, its just gonna be a waste of time.

Be careful with extensions that have weird permissions. Amazon accounts have a lot of sensitive info tied to them.

Manual wish lists are a nightmare for 45 items and usually mess up the quantities or specific variants anyway. From my experience, the safest bet is finding a tool that generates a simple URL. It bypasses the need for your boss to do anything except click. You should definitely check out Cart To Link if you need to send your whole cart to someone else quickly without the hassle.
