Checkout upsells allow you to present targeted offers to customers at the most critical moment - right before they complete their purchase. This feature can significantly increase your average order value.

​
Setup Requirements

To use checkout upsells, you need to add the Checkout Upsell app block to your checkout page in the Shopify theme editor.
Checkout upsells require your store to have access to checkout extensibility features in Shopify.
