# Upsell Products

## What are Upsell Products?

Upsell Products lets you display additional product recommendations inside the cart drawer. When a customer opens their cart, they see suggested items they can add with one click — boosting your average order value without interrupting the shopping flow.

## Why use Upsell Products?

* **Increase average order value** — Show relevant products that complement what the customer already has in their cart.
* **Smart recommendations** — Choose between AI-powered suggestions, best sellers, or hand-picked products.
* **Seamless experience** — Customers can add upsell items directly from the cart drawer without navigating away.

## Requirements before using

* You must have the **AOV.ai Cart Drawer** app installed and active.
* Products must already be added to your Shopify store.
* For AI recommendations, at least one item must be in the cart.

## How to Set Up?

### Step 1: Open Upsell Products Settings

### Step 2: Choose a Product Selection Method

1. Under **Product selection**, choose how upsell products are picked:
   * **AI recommendation** — The app automatically suggests related products based on what is in the cart. Set the **Number of related products shown** to control how many appear.

   * **Manual selection** — Hand-pick specific products. Click **Add more products** to browse and select items from your catalog.
