Introduction:

WooCommerce Checkout Upsell is offered when your customers are at the checkout page. When you offer compelling discounts before they complete their payment (in checkout via checkout upsell campaign), customers can quickly add it with one-click upsell.

For example, when a customer is purchasing a product, the checkout upsell campaign helps by showcasing suggested or related products on the checkout page. This simple approach encourages customers to enhance their shopping experience by adding more items to their cart, ultimately boosting the average order value.

This user guide explains how to create a checkout upsell campaign using Checkout Upsell for WooCommerce.

Example Scenarios:

  1. Percentage discount: Provide a percentage discount on the upsell offer product (e.g., 10% off on Back case when customer purchases Smartphone).

  2. Fixed discount: Apply a fixed discount for the upsell products (e.g., $10 off the product value).

  3. Free: Offer the product for free.

  4. No Discount: Display the product on the checkout page without a discount.

Please make sure you have already installed and activated the WooCommerce Checkout Upsell plugin. Please note that some of the features explained here are available only in the PRO version.
