Install SellifyWhere can Sellify show upsells on my Shopify store?
Published
Short answer
Sellify can show upsells in four places: on the product page, inside Shopify checkout, on the post-purchase page (after payment, before the thank you page) and on the thank you page. The checkout placement needs Shopify Plus; the other three work on Basic Shopify and higher.
The four placements at a glance
| Placement | When the buyer sees it | How the buyer accepts | Shopify plan |
|---|---|---|---|
| Product page | While viewing a product | Adds the offer to the cart; the discount is applied automatically at checkout | Basic and higher |
| Checkout | During checkout | One click adds the product to the current order | Shopify Plus only |
| Post-purchase page | After payment, before the thank you page | One click adds the product to the original order, without re-entering card details | Basic and higher |
| Thank you page | On the order confirmation page | Opens a pre-filled checkout for a new, discounted order | Basic and higher |
How each placement works
1. Product page
Sellify adds an upsell widget to your product pages through a Shopify theme app extension.
- Placement: turn on the Sellify Product Upsell app embed to place the widget automatically under the add-to-cart button, or add the Sellify Product Upsell block where you want it in the theme editor.
- Products offered: products you pick, or Shopify's related or complementary product recommendations.
- Targeting: show the offer on all products, on specific products, or on products from specific collections.
- Discount: none, a percentage or a fixed amount per product, applied automatically at checkout by a Shopify discount function.
- Optional countdown timer above the widget.
2. Checkout (Shopify Plus)
The Sellify - Checkout Upsell block runs inside Shopify checkout itself. Shopify only lets apps add blocks to the information, shipping and payment steps on Shopify Plus, so this placement is not available on other plans.
- Setup: add the block in the checkout editor (Settings › Checkout in your Shopify admin). By default it sits in the order summary.
- Products offered: up to 10 products you pick, or Shopify's related or complementary recommendations based on the cart.
- Targeting: products, collections, excluded products and cart total.
- Discount: none, a percentage or a fixed amount per product, applied by a Shopify discount function.
- Products already in the cart are not offered again, and neither are products sold only as subscriptions.

3. Post-purchase page
The post-purchase page appears after the buyer pays and before the thank you page. Accepting an offer takes one click: Sellify adds the product to the original order and the buyer does not re-enter their card.
- Funnels: up to three upsells in a row. When the buyer declines an upsell, a downsell can be shown instead.
- Targeting: products, collections, product quantities, order total, country and language, with an option to skip orders that contain a subscription.
- Setup: select Sellify in the Post-purchase page section of Settings › Checkout. Shopify allows only one post-purchase app at a time.
- Shopify limits: the page is not shown for some payment methods (for example gift cards, Klarna or Apple Pay), for orders under $0.50, or for orders placed outside the Online Store, and a buyer can accept at most three offers per checkout.

4. Thank you page
The Sellify - Thank you Upsell block shows one or more products on the order confirmation page. It does not change the first order, so it does not depend on the payment method the buyer used.
- Setup: add the block to the Thank you page in the checkout editor.
- Buying: the button opens a checkout for a new order, pre-filled with the buyer's details, with your discount and optional free shipping. The buyer pays for it there.
- Targeting: the thank you page offer belongs to a funnel and uses the same rules as the post-purchase page.
Can I use several placements at once?
Yes. Each placement is configured separately, so you can run product page, checkout, post-purchase and thank you page offers at the same time. Sellify doesn't add offers to the cart page or cart drawer.
