How do I create add-on product discounts?
The short answer
In depth
Creating Add-On Product Discounts
Add-on discounts are one of the highest-ROI discount types because they increase order value while offering the customer genuine additional value. The key is making the add-on feel like a natural extension of what they are already buying.
Campaign Configuration
- In Growth Suite Campaigns, create a new campaign
- Set trigger: Cart contains [primary product or collection]
- Set discount applies to: [specific add-on product]
- Choose discount type: percentage off (10-20% is typical) or fixed amount
- Write offer copy that connects the add-on to the main purchase
High-Converting Add-On Types
| Add-On Type | Why It Converts |
|---|---|
| Consumables (refills, replacements) | Obvious future need, discount makes stocking up easy |
| Complementary accessories | Enhances the primary product immediately |
| Extended service/warranty | Reduces perceived risk of primary purchase |
Growth Suite advantage: The add-on offer only shows when the trigger product is present, so every impression is contextually relevant. No wasted offers on visitors without the primary product.
