Post-purchase upsell

Thank-you

The Post-Purchase Upsell shows on the Shopify thank-you page and the order status page after the shopper completes checkout. The order is already paid, the shopper is happy, and a relevant "you might also like" offer at this moment adds revenue with zero risk to the original sale.

Thank-You Block

Default

Renders as a block in Shopify's checkout and customer account pages. The shopper sees your section title, the recommended products with a checkbox and variant picker each, a running total and an Add button. Clicking it opens a cart pre-filled with the selected products so the shopper can place a second order; the campaign discount is applied automatically.

  • Available on every Shopify plan.
  • No risk to the original order — it ships regardless.
  • Highest trust moment — the shopper just had a successful transaction.
  • Discount banner with the saving shown right on the offer.

Best for: Every Shopify store. The most universally-applicable upsell surface.

How to create a Post-Purchase campaign

A

In the Summer Upsell admin

  1. 1 Click Create Campaign → under Post-Purchase pick Thank You Page Block.
  2. 2 Offer name (e.g. Thank-you — Accessory upsell).
  3. 3 Set the Section Title (default You might also like).
  4. 4 Trigger: Any order for broad reach, Specific products (default) or Specific collections to show the offer only after orders containing those products.
  5. 5 Pick the product source and the offer products.
  6. 6 Optional: enable the discount — Percentage or Fixed Amount.
  7. 7 Design tab: set the Widget Title (e.g. Your new order is on the way!), Button Text and the Discount Banner Text, which uses the {discount} placeholder (e.g. Add items to the cart to get {discount} Discount), plus colors.
  8. 8 Language tab: per-language overrides for Section Title, Button Text and Discount Banner Text.
  9. 9 Click Publish — post-purchase needs no theme block, so the checklist only verifies the campaign and its products.

In the Shopify checkout editor

  1. 1 In the Shopify admin, open Settings → Checkout and click Customize on your live checkout profile.
  2. 2 Use the page switcher at the top to move to the Thank you page.
  3. 3 Click Add app block and choose Summer: Post-Purchase Block.
  4. 4 Switch the page selector to Order status and repeat, so returning shoppers see the offer too.
  5. 5 Click Save. Place a test order to confirm the block renders.

Two pages, one campaign

A single post-purchase campaign renders in two places, both added from the checkout editor. You configure the offer once.

Field Description
Thank you page Shown immediately after payment. The trigger is matched against the products in the order that was just placed.
Order status page Shown when the shopper returns to track the order from their account. Same campaign, same offer.

About styling: Post-purchase blocks render inside Shopify's checkout and customer account pages, which apply your shop's brand settings. To change fonts and colors globally, go to Settings → Customer accounts → Branding. The color fields on the Design tab still apply where Shopify allows.

Why post-purchase converts

  • The risk barrier is gone — payment is approved, the shopper is happy.
  • No checkout abandonment — the original order ships regardless.
  • The offer opens a cart that's already filled, so the second purchase is a couple of clicks away.
