See every featureStop giving away Free Shipping! Instead, start using the 'Free Shipping bar' progress bar which boosts your sales. Because when customers see "You're only $20 away from Free Shipping!", they actually spend these extra $20 (or even more). To make more money, just give them a cart goal value (e.g., $50) and a sweet award when they reach this amount (free shipping, discount code, or anything else).
Boost revenue with a customizable Shipping Progress Bar, Smart Upsells, and built-in analytics. The progress bar motivates customers to add more items and reach free shipping in real time. Smart Upsells appear below the bar at the right moment, surfacing relevant products when shoppers are already motivated to buy more.
