Summary
Related, Upsell or Basket?
There are three types of upsells available.
Related Products
These are similar to a 'you may also like', and are displayed below the product description on the Product Detail Page.
Upsell Products
These are typically simple products, which should be single click upsells, e.g. scatter cushions or a basketball upsold to a pair of trainers. These will display near the add to basket button of the Product Detail Page.
Made to Order and Bundle products can not be upsells; due to the complexity of these products, they can not be single click adds to basket.
Products with multiple variants are not recommended for Upsells - use Basket Upsells instead.
Basket Upsells
These are Variant to Variant upsells, and are applied to the add to basket pop up. Once an item has been added, the platform knows which Variant has been selected, which allows for dynamic upselling.
A perfect use for this would be upselling a 'double' mattress protector to a customer who has bought a 'double' mattress, or 'size 10' socks to a customer who has bought 'size 10' shoes.
