How can I customize my checkout page to include upsells?

Topic summary

Chris269 wants to customize their checkout page with several features:

Desired Features:

  • “People also ordered” upsell recommendations
  • Cross-promotion between clothing and “length and strength” products (bidirectional)
  • Free shipping incentives for bundled purchases
  • Reordering payment options (credit card before PayPal)

Community Responses:
Multiple app recommendations were provided:

  • Qikify Checkout Plus (suggested first, but deemed too expensive by Chris269)
  • Checkout Extensions Pro
  • UpsellPlusCheckout
  • Checkout Builder
  • BOGOS app (offers free plan for first 30 orders)

Key Consideration:
SoftwareCW notes that checkout extensions may require Shopify Plus ($2k+/month), questioning why a $99 app would be cost-prohibitive. PaulNewton emphasizes that custom checkout features should generate sufficient revenue to justify their cost.

Status: The discussion remains open with Chris269 seeking more budget-friendly alternatives to accomplish their checkout customization goals.

Hey folks,

I would like to customise my checkout experience to include ‘people also ordered’ and a link to my clothing range if at all possible. Also i would like to offer them free delivery on clothing ordered with length and strength.

I would like this done for the reverse, so when customers order clothing they can be upsold the product. Again with free shipping.

Lastly, would it be ok to swap around my payment options on the checkout page. Credit card first and Paypal after.

Hopefully this can be done.

Kindest regards.

Chris

Hi, we use this app:

https://apps.shopify.com/qikify-checkout-plus?surface_intra_position=6&surface_type=partners&surface_version=redesign

I beleive it will accomplish everything you listed.

Thats a great app thanks so much for sharing. However its a little out of our budget and teh free version doesn’t add the features we need. Is there another more reasonable priced option for this?

Hi, the checkout extension feature by shopify is very new and there are limited number of apps that support it, so in accordance, apps know this. Whats your budget and ill glance quick. I have tried about all of them.

That is reasonably priced, when it comes to getting custom behaviors if these wants via apps can’t generate more than $X a month in revenue it’s unlikely it’s even worth spending time on.

I see Pauls point, but also unless things have chnaged I thought checkout extensions were only available on shopify plus. Which is at least $2k a month, so a little confused on $99 being out of the price range.

Maybe checkout extensions are available for other plans now, I could be wrong.

Checkout extensibility just got better with this amazing app for Shopify Plus! It offers many of extra features like upsells widgets, content widgets and custom fields, all at a very low price.

Check it out here: https://apps.shopify.com/checkout-extensions-pro (Checkout Extensions Pro).

We tried Shopify’s app, Checkout Blcoks, but that didn’t work well for us. The support is really bad. We switched to this one after that: https://apps.shopify.com/upsellpluscheckout; it does the ‘people also ordered’ option in the checkout. I think you can also reorder payment methods, haven’t used it for that, but worth a try!

Hi Chris,

Great ideas for improving your checkout experience! While Shopify has some limitations (especially around payment order), you can add upsells like “people also bought” and free shipping offers based on what’s in the cart if you are on Shopify Plus.

You might find our app, Checkout Builder, helpful—it’s built to show personalized upsells during and after checkout, and works well for cross-promoting products like clothing and Length & Strength.

Happy to chat if you have any questions!

Best,

Zack

Hi,

Based on your request regarding checkout upsell, I recommend trying the BOGOS app.

You can check out the demo here:

You can get started with the BOGOS free plan, which covers the first 30 orders at no cost.

Shopify still has limits on checkout customization to Shopify Plus merchants. The other options work well if you’re hitting the customer up at just the right time.

We have Optizen Video Upsell. It’s kind of a unique idea. Instead of static upsells, you can add a video (either your own or via AI) on product pages. It’s a nice way to engage directly with upsells at the right time.
