What This Sidekick Query Does

Set up upsell and cross-sell product recommendations directly on the checkout page to increase average order value.

Prompts

Copy, adapt, and run this directly in Shopify Sidekick.

Help me add upsell offers to my Shopify checkout:

Store niche: [YOUR STORE NICHE OR PRODUCT CATEGORY]
Average order value: [CURRENT AOV]
Target AOV increase: [DESIRED PERCENTAGE OR DOLLAR INCREASE]
Products to upsell: [LIST 3-5 PRODUCTS OR CATEGORIES TO RECOMMEND]

Please set up checkout upsells with these specifications:


  
    Upsell placement - Add product recommendations after the shipping method step but before the payment step. This is the ideal moment when customers are committed but have not yet paid.
  
  
    Product selection logic - Create rules that recommend complementary products based on what is already in the cart. For example, if buying [MAIN PRODUCT CATEGORY], suggest [COMPLEMENTARY CATEGORY]. Keep recommendations to a maximum of 2 items to avoid overwhelming the buyer.
  
  
    Offer formatting - Display each upsell with a small product image, the product name, a one-line benefit statement, the price, and a single “Add to order” button. Show the percentage saved if offering a discount.
  
  
    Discount incentive - Offer a [DISCOUNT PERCENTAGE]% discount on upsell items to encourage adding them. Make the discount visible with a strikethrough original price.
  
  
    One-click add - Ensure customers can add the upsell item without leaving the checkout flow or refreshing the page. The order summary should update instantly.
  
  
    Performance tracking - Set up tracking to measure upsell acceptance rate, additional revenue generated, and impact on overall conversion rate.
  
  
    Mobile display - On mobile, show upsells in a compact horizontal scroll or a single stacked card to save screen space.
