So Ive been managing the supply runs for our local community center here in Seattle for like five years now and usually I just handle the whole checkout process myself. But our board just changed some rules and now the treasurer needs to actually be the one to hit the buy button for anything over $200 because of some new transparency thing they're doing.
I've got about $450 worth of stuff sitting in my cart right now for our youth program kickoff next Tuesday and it's a huge pain to manually copy-paste every single ASIN or link into an email for him. I used to use this one browser extension that would basically just generate a shareable link of the cart contents but it seems like it's totally broken now or maybe Amazon changed how they handle session data because it just throws an error every time I try to sync.
I really don't want to give him my login info because my personal credit card is tied to the account and honestly I just don't have the time to sit there and watch him re-add 30 different items. Is there a legit tool or maybe a newer extension that lets you just export or share the cart as a guest link or something? I looked at those share-a-cart type sites but I'm a bit wary about security and how they handle the session cookies. What are people using these days that actually works without requiring the other person to log into my specific profile?

I ran into this exact mess last year when organizing a huge charity drive. I had about 50 items in my basket and the guy who actually held the company card lived three states away. I tried a couple of random free extensions first and it was a disaster... one of them literally froze my browser and I was terrified my session was compromised. You definitely have to be careful with anything that wants full access to your browsing data. After that scare, I found Share-A-Cart and that is the one I use now. My current setup involves just generating a code and sending it over. It's way safer than sharing a login. I would suggest making sure your treasurer clears their own cart first tho, because sometimes things get messy if they already have items in there. It saves so much time compared to the manual copy-paste nightmare, ngl.
