Raising Average Cart Value

Get more from each buyer with bumps, upsells, bundles and quantity offers.

Average cart value, also called average order value, is the average amount a buyer spends in one checkout path. Raising it is the fastest way to make a funnel profitable.

Common levers are order bumps, upsells, bundles, more of the same at a discount, shipping upgrades and product selectors.

Do it step by step

  1. Add an order bump if there is none.
  2. Offer more of the same at a better price as upsell one.
  3. Offer the next logical product as upsell two.
  4. Test a bundle option on the order form.
