Chapter 65: Icons Shopping

Shopping Icons (officially called Icons Shopping or Icons Payment & Shopping on W3Schools).

This is — as always — the classic W3Schools reference/cheat-sheet page that lists all free Font Awesome 5 icons belonging to the Shopping / Payment / E-commerce category.

URL (still working perfectly in February 2026): https://www.w3schools.com/icons/fontawesome5_icons_shopping.asp

(or sometimes combined as https://www.w3schools.com/icons/fontawesome5_icons_payment_shopping.asp)

It’s usually placed after “Shapes” or “Security” and before “Social” or “Spinners” in their sidebar. The page opens with the short intro:

Shopping Icons The table below shows the Free Font Awesome 5 Shopping icons:

…followed by the familiar table with preview, class name, unicode, and “Try it” button.

1. What does the “Icons Shopping” page contain?

This category contains only the icons that represent:

  • shopping actions
  • e-commerce elements
  • carts, bags, baskets
  • payment methods
  • checkout process
  • products & packaging
  • discounts & promotions
  • delivery & shipping

They are extremely useful (probably one of the top 3 most used categories on real websites in 2025–2026) for:

  • Online stores (Flipkart, Amazon, Shopify, Meesho style)
  • “Add to Cart” / “Buy Now” buttons
  • Cart / wishlist icons in header
  • Checkout / payment flow pages
  • Product pricing & discount badges
  • “Free Shipping” / “Cash on Delivery” indicators
  • Invoice / receipt download sections
  • “My Orders” / “Track Order” pages
  • E-commerce admin panels (order status, product management)

In Font Awesome 5 free the Shopping & Payment category is one of the richest and most complete — around 25–40 icons (mostly solid fas, some regular far). Font Awesome 6 and 7 later added many more (cart-shopping, bag-shopping, credit-card-front, wallet, receipt, tag variants, barcode-scanner, truck-fast), but FA5 free already has almost everything a typical e-commerce site needs in 2026.

  • How many real shopping/payment icons are there in FA5 free? → Around 25–35 truly useful ones (very strong category)
  • Is there a modern “cart-shopping” or “bag-shopping” icon? → No — those came in Font Awesome 6 free (fa-cart-shopping, fa-bag-shopping)
  • Is there a wallet or receipt icon? → Yes — fa-wallet and fa-receipt / fa-file-invoice-dollar are in FA5
  • Best alternatives in 2026 if you need a richer e-commerce set
    1. Font Awesome 6 or 7 (free version) → much better cart, bag, payment icons
    2. Bootstrap Icons → excellent shopping cart, bag, credit-card icons
    3. Tabler Icons → very complete e-commerce & payment set
    4. Heroicons / Lucide → modern line-style shopping icons
    5. Google Material Symbols → rich payment & shopping collection
