Why does EcoCart create a Carbon Neutral Product in my Shopify store?

Shopify uses a ‘closed cart’ system which does not allow apps to charge your customers (shoppers) outside of the cart page. Since EcoCart offers different Payor Modes, some of them require the EcoCart Product to be added to the cart.
