How to get started: cart upsells > popup

Overview

Implementing cart upsell popups allows you to present additional product suggestions to customers as they interact with their shopping cart, encouraging them to add more items before proceeding to checkout. This strategy can effectively increase your store's Average Order Value (AOV). UpsellPlus offers a straightforward method to set up such upsell offers.

Step-by-Step Guide

Access the UpsellPlus App
Log in to your Shopify Admin panel.
Navigate to the UpsellPlus app.

Create a New Cart Popup Offer
Click on Create offer within the UpsellPlus dashboard.
Select Cart, then choose Popup



Configure the Upsell Details
Customize the upsell offer by selecting products, setting discounts, and adjusting design elements to align with your store's branding.
After configuring, click Save to activate the upsell offer.





Integrate the Upsell Popup into Your Theme
To ensure the upsell popup functions correctly, you may need to add specific code to your theme.

Follow these steps to do so:
In your Shopify admin, navigate to Online Store > Themes > ... (More Actions) > Edit Code.
Locate the appropriate file where the popup should be triggered, such as the cart template or product page template.
Insert the initialization code provided by UpsellPlus at the appropriate location within the file.

Test the Popup Functionality
After integrating the code, test the popup by adding items to the cart to ensure it appears as intended.

Key Considerations
Technical Expertise: Modifying theme code requires a basic understanding of HTML and JavaScript. If you're uncomfortable making these changes, consider consulting a developer or reaching out to UpsellPlus support.
Theme Variations: Different Shopify themes may have varying structures. Ensure you identify the correct files and insertion points specific to your theme.
