How to create a Post Purchase upsell

Increase your AOV and revenue with Post-Purchase upsells

Adding a post-purchase offer will increase the Average Order Value (AOV) by incentivizing customers to add more items to their purchase through immediate, tailored promotions or discounts after the initial transaction.

Before you start

Set Visually.io as your Post-Purchase app:

  1. On your Shopify Admin, go to Settings > Checkout
  2. Find the "Post-purchase page" at the bottom of the page, and choose Visually app

 

Setting up your Post-Purchase experience

1. Click on 'Create New Experience'.

 
 
2. Scroll down and click on "Add Post Purchase Page".

 
 
3. Define the audience. You can have multiple post purchase upsells active at any time, but make sure that the Audience settings don't conflate with one another by setting a custom audience.

 
 
4. Define the layout of the post purchase page. You can include the number of offers (to a maximum of two), a timer, product ratings, and product summary settings.

 
 
5. Set the discount percentage, the messages, and the time countdown.

 
 

6. Adjust the design. You can either customize manually or select a previously used or saved style.




7. Select which products to offer. You can select manually or use a set of rules.


 


8. You’re all set! Save the changes and click on the 'Next' button to publish.

 
 
9. If you're planning on using different post purchase experiences, make sure to name it.

11. Click on 'Publish' once you’re done.
