The product upsell widget allows you to add one or more recommended products to your store using the ReConvert editor.


To learn how to use this widget, watch the following video:



Introduction


The product upsell widget in ReConvert allows you to add upsell products to any page in your store. This guide will walk you through the setup and customization of the product upsell widget using the ReConvert Flow Builder and Editor.


Getting started


Accessing the Product Upsell widget


  1. Open the ReConvert Editor


  1. In the navigation menu, locate the product upsell widget


  1. Expand or collapse the widget to view its contents


Components of the product upsell widget


By default, the product upsell widget contains three blocks:

  • Divider block - a simple line that allows for more clarity
  • Text block - a simple text box with styling that you can use to add explanation, title to the widget
  • Product block - the main part of the product upsell widget will be explored in this article


Configuring the Product widget


Selecting products to display


  1. Select the product widget


  1. In the Actions menu, choose the product display options:

  • Shopify Recommendations: This is the default. It is a dynamic product recommendation that uses Shopify's recommendation engine to recommend products that the customer is already interested in. You have the option within this setting of the following:-


Recommendation intent: Choose between Related or Complementary RecommendationsExclusion tags: Exclude products with specific tagsHide cart products: Avoid showing products already in the cart



The other widget blocks of image, product details and description will be covered later.


  • Specific product(s): Manually select specific product(s) from your store to show your customers



  • Product collection - This includes the ability to show a random product from a collection



  • Most expensive product in cart: Displays the priciest item in the cart - (we have found that this can work the best for customers at certain points of the sales flow, but we would not recommend using this at pre-purchase in the checkout, but it could work well for post-purchase upsells). Exclusion tags can be set


  • Cheapest product in cart: Displays the least expensive item in the cart. Exclusion tags can be set

  • Third-party integrations: Use apps like Personalized Recommendations and Recomatic

Customizing product display blocks


these are all covered in separate helpdesk articles in more detail - click on the links in the subheadings to find out more. Only a brief overview will be provided here.


Image block


  1. Select the image block


  1. Choose to contain or cover the image


  1. Decide whether to display the main product image or a specific variant image by selecting or deselecting the checkbox at the bottom of this block


Product details


  1. Set the product title (default is the product name)


  1. Choose a subtitle (variant name, vendor, type, custom text, or none)


  1. Save changes frequently to avoid losing progress


Product description


  1. Decide whether to display the product description


  1. Choose between showing the default or an alternative description


  1. Make the description collapsible if necessary (often descriptions can be lengthy, so it may make sense to collapse the description)


Price and discounts


  1. Select the product prices to display (at least one)
  • Compare-to-Price - this is the most expensive price of the product listed in the Shopify inventory
  • Original Price - this is the price once any non-discount codes have been selected, (i.e. the discounted price that you've manually reduced the compare-to-price to)
  • Product Price including Discount - this is the Original Price minus any coupon codes or other discount you've used within ReConvert


Top Tip:- We recommend either: a) showing all 3 prices; or omitting the Compare-to-Price and just leaving the Original Price and Product Price including DiscountIf you choose to display all of these prices and one does not exist, Shopify will simply not show anything in its place


  1. Select the size of each of the selected prices


  1. Set up discounts:


You have three options when it comes to applying the discount. You can:-


  • Apply a percentage discount
  • Apply a fixed monetary value discount per item
  • Apply a fixed monetary value discount per order


You also have the option to limit the application of discounts to only those orders above a certain value


  1. Save changes after configuring


Shipping options


These options are available on the Post Purchase pages, Thank You page, and Order Status page.


The new shipping options include:


  • Free shipping
  • Fixed price shipping
  • Managed by Shopify (not currently available on Post Purchase page)


Please do note that the "Managed by Shopify" shipping option will be available on Post Purchase pages in a future update and it may be that it now exists when you are reading this!


Accept button


  1. Choose button type (primary, secondary, or plain)


On Checkout page we would recommend using the Secondary button type to keep 'Buy' as the only primary button. On other pages, we recommend using the Primary button type


  1. Customize the button text if needed


  1. Save changes before proceeding


While button colors cannot be changed here, they can be changed by following the steps contained within this helpdesk article


Variant picker


  1. Decide whether to display the variant picker


  1. Customize the variant picker text


  1. Save changes


Quantity selector


  1. Choose to display or hide the quantity selector


  1. If displaying the quantity selector, you can change quantity selector label text


  1. Set default, minimum, and maximum quantities


If you are choosing to use a minimum quantity that is greater than 1, please note that the default quantity will need to match or exceed the minimum quantity


  1. Save changes


Success and error banner


Success banner


  1. Customize the success message and banner type


  1. Choose whether the banner is dismissible


  1. Choose to display or hide the undo button to allow customers to remove the upsold item from their order


Error banner


  1. Customize the error message and banner type


  1. Dynamic Error Banner Text, if selected, will display the actual error in this this space for the customer (in English). Alternatively, you can type in your own catch-all error text here or in a language other than English if your store's language is not in English


  1. Choose whether the banner is dismissible


It is recommended to show the customer success and error banners to keep the customer informed of the status, even if it is just a one line standard text
