Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
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).
Free Shipping Bar puts a progress bar across your storefront that tracks the cart against your free shipping threshold. Write what it says on the way to the goal and what it says once the cart clears it, in your own colours. Choose who sees it: everyone, carts above a minimum value, or only when particular products or collections are in the basket.
- Placed Anywhere: product page, cart page, cart drawer, or as an announcement bar
- Boosts Average Order Value: add product upsells, cross-sells & cart upsell.
- Revenue-Oriented: track additional revenue generated by free shipping bar.
- Highly Customisable: customise cart goal progress bar or use pre-made styles.
- A progress bar that counts down to your free shipping threshold
- A separate success message for when the cart clears the goal
- Show it to everyone, or only to carts above a minimum value
- Target specific products and collections
