Shipping Protection Testing
Shipping Protection Integration with Third-Party Providers (A/B Testing Setup)
You may use a third-party provider to manage a Shipping Protection offering at checkout. In Visually, this feature can be controlled as part of an A/B test by coordinating with the third-party provider.
This guide explains how to set up and align the integration so that shipping protection can be dynamically shown or hidden based on experiment groups or Experience variations.
Visually can utilize values passed via cart attributes that allow a third-party shipping protection provider to:
- Show or hide the shipping protection offer
- Adjust configuration dynamically per user group
- Support controlled A/B testing at checkout
To enable this, coordination with the third-party provider is required.
Step 1: Coordinate with the Third-Party Provider
Once we have details from you on who your third-party shipping protection provider is, we will reach out to them and coordinate the required setup and technical details.
Step 2: Confirm Technical Feasibility
Once the third party confirms support for this setup, we will validate:
- Required cart attribute format
- Any limitations or implementation constraints
- Expected behavior on checkout load
Step 3: Implementation Setup
Once validated on our end, the cart attribute will be passed to the third-party provider during checkout.
We will then provide an Experience configuration that uses this attribute to control behavior.
Step 4: Third-Party Configuration Update
We will share the final configuration details with the third-party provider, including how to:
- Read the cart attribute
- Apply conditional logic based on experiment group
- Control whether shipping protection is shown or hidden
Step 5: QA & Validation
Once everything is implemented, the Experience will be ready for your QA to ensure correct behavior across test and control groups.
This setup allows Visually to:
- Run A/B tests involving third-party checkout widgets
- Control shipping protection behavior via cart attributes
- Maintain a clean separation between experiment logic and third-party rendering
