Cart Upsell
π Table of Contentsβ
Overviewβ
Cart Upsell promotes complementary or higherβvalue products right on the Cart page β the moment before checkout when customers are still adding to their order. By showing relevant, optionally discounted offers here, you grow the basket while intent is high.
Offers are shown conditionally: you decide which cart contents trigger the upsell, so shoppers only see suggestions that make sense for what they're buying.
How it worksβ
A customer's cart contains an item from your Accessories category. At the top of the cart, an upsell section appears recommending a Sunglasses, a Belt, and a Cap β with a bundle discount. They add a matching accessory in one click and head to checkout with a larger order.
The Grid layout is available in the Free version. List and Slider layouts require Pro.
Step-by-Step Setupβ
1. Create the campaignβ
Open Side Cart & Upsell β Campaigns, then click Add New.

Choose Cart Upsell (Grid) and click Add.

2. Configure the General tabβ
- Pick a Heading Style, enter a Title, and optionally a Subtitle.
- Select a Theme and a Size.
- Enable Add a Link to the Products.
- Set the Position (e.g. top of the cart).
- Under Display Customer Conditions, enable Exclude if Purchased so customers aren't offered something they already own.
- Add a Condition: show the upsell when Product Categories in Cart include at least one product from Accessories.

3. Add your offersβ
- Open the Offers tab.
- Add Offer 1 (e.g. Sunglasses), enable Edit Quantity by User, and set the Minimum and Maximum.
- Add Offer 2 (e.g. Belt) and set the Quantity.
- Add Offer 3 (e.g. Cap) with a Discount Type of Percentage and a value of 20%.
- Click Save Changes.

To capture screenshots: add an Accessories product to the cart, then open the Cart page β the upsell appears at the top.
What customers seeβ
When the cart contains at least one Accessories product, the upsell offers appear automatically at the top of the cart.

- Categoryβbased conditions scale better than productβbyβproduct rules as your catalog grows.
- Enable Exclude if Purchased to avoid recommending items a returning customer already owns.
- Reserve the discount for one offer to signal a deal without discounting the whole bundle.
