Would you be willing to pay for a greeting card upsell option at the checkout? The idea is that the buyer would have the option to add a greeting card to the order for an additional $5. This would be beneficial for both sides, and the greeting card can be fully customized.
Topic summary
Optional $5 upsell at checkout for a fully customizable greeting card is proposed as a win–win for customers and merchants. The add-on would let buyers include a personalized message with their order.
A developer learning Shopify app development expresses interest in collaborating. They are currently building an app to auto-delete or set to draft products that are at least n days old and have reached zero stock, and note frustrations with limitations on Shopify’s post-purchase “thank you” page (order confirmation page) as motivation.
- No technical approach, feasibility (e.g., checkout extensibility), or A/B testing plans discussed.
- No pricing validation beyond the suggested $5 fee.
- No merchant or customer feedback provided yet.
Outcome: No decisions or commitments; the idea is in validation/discovery. Discussion remains open with potential developer collaboration pending.
I am in the middle of learning how to develop Shopify apps and might be interested in working on this with you!
My first app idea I’m working on is an app that deletes or sets to draft any product that is >= n days old and hits zero available stock.
I got interested in learning how to develop Shopify apps because of my friend’s complaints about the limitations of the Shopify thank you page.
