Update, 2 September 2026: Rapi left our partner programme, so its link below now earns us nothing. We have kept it in the comparison because the pricing analysis still stands — the app is listed as Rapid Bundles & Upsell and holds 5.0 from 1,370 reviews. Every other app on this page remains a partner link.
Short answer
Upsell apps look interchangeable and price completely differently. The
feature lists converge; the meter does not. One charges on your total store orders, another on
the revenue it generates for you, another on bundle sales only, and one charges nothing at all. Pick the wrong
meter and a $9.99 app quietly becomes a $60 app.
If you want the short version:
Selleasy for product-page upsells on a growing store,
Upsell.com ‑ ReConvert for post-purchase,
G: Volume Discounts if you only need quantity breaks and would rather pay nothing, and
Post Purchase Upsell Hero if you are large enough that a percentage that falls to zero
beats any flat fee.
Best all-rounder
Selleasy — 4.9 from 2,502 reviews. Free to 50 orders a month, then $9. Product page
and cart, every feature on every tier.
Best free option
G: Volume Discounts — 5.0 from 110 reviews and genuinely free, with no paid tier
anywhere on the listing.
Best at scale
Upsell Hero — 2.5% of upsell revenue to $20k a month, then 0%. The only app
here that gets cheaper as you grow.
What each app actually charges you for
This is the table we wanted when we started and could not find anywhere. Same fifteen apps, sorted by review
count, with the thing that determines your bill in the second column.
| App | Meter — what you pay on | Tiers | Where it upsells |
|---|---|---|---|
 Upsell.com ‑ ReConvert4.8 from 2,793 reviews |
Total store orders | $4.99 (50 orders) → $9.99 (100) → $19.99 (200), then higher | Post-purchase & thank-you page |

Upsell revenue | Free to $100 → $9.99 ($500) → $19.99 ($1,000) → $39.99 unlimited | Product page, cart from $19.99 |
 Rapi Bundles5.0 from 1,370 reviews |

Flat | $49 (post-purchase only) → $99 (actual checkout) → $199 | Checkout & post-purchase |
 Elite Cart Drawer5.0 from 46 reviews |

| Post Purchase Upsell Hero 5.0 from 15 reviews |
% of upsell revenue | $0/mo + 2.5% to $20k, then 0% | Post-purchase |
Read the second column before the third. Two apps at “$9.99” are not comparable if one counts
your whole order book and the other counts only the extra revenue it made you.
Five pricing traps worth knowing before you install
1. ReConvert’s meter counts your total orders, not upsell orders. The listing
is explicit that charges rise with monthly order volume. So a store doing 500 orders a month pays the 500-order
rate even if only twenty of those orders ever saw an upsell. On a high-volume, low-upsell store this is the most
expensive app on the page rather than the $4.99 one.
2. Kite’s cheap tiers exclude Advanced and Plus merchants. The Free and $29 Starter
plans are marked “Not for Shopify Advanced and Plus plans”. If you are on either, your real entry
price is the $49 Growth tier — and free gifts at checkout need the $99 Pro plan
on top of already being on Plus.
3. Wiz “Checkout Upsell” does not do checkout upsells on its entry plan. The $49
Essential tier is post-purchase, thank-you page and order-status only. The actual checkout-page upselling the app
is named after starts at $99, and needs Checkout Extensibility.
4. Elite Cart’s $29.99 holds only under 200 orders. The tier includes 200
orders a month and then scales with volume — the listing’s own example adds $10 at 500 orders.
It is a floor price, not a price.
5. UpsellPlus needs Shopify Plus, full stop. Checkout upsells depend on checkout
extensibility, which is a Plus capability. At $49 a month minimum it is excellent and completely irrelevant if
you are not on Plus. Do not lose an afternoon to it first.
Where the upsell actually appears
The second decision, and the one that determines whether an app can help you at all. Four surfaces, and most
apps only cover one or two.
Product page
Offers shown before the customer commits. Highest reach, lowest disruption. Selleasy,
Essential Upsell, Assortion.
Cart & drawer
Caught on the way out. Converts well, but disappears entirely if you use a skip-the-cart flow.
Cartly, Elite Cart, Selleasy, Essential Upsell (from $19.99).
Checkout page
Shopify Plus only. The highest-intent surface and the one most stores cannot use.
UpsellPlus, Wiz (from $99).
Post-purchase
After payment, so it cannot cost you the original order — the safest place to test.
Upsell.com ‑ ReConvert, Upsell Hero, Rapi Bundles.
If you are only going to install one thing
Start post-purchase. An offer shown after payment cannot
reduce your conversion rate, cannot slow your product page, and cannot annoy someone into abandoning a cart. It
is the only upsell surface with no downside risk to the order you already won — which makes it the right
place to find out whether your customers respond to upsells at all before you touch the pages that matter.
The two outliers
The one that is actually free
G: Volume Discounts & Bundles holds 5.0 from 110 reviews and has no paid tier on its
listing at all. If what you need is quantity breaks — buy 3 save 10% — rather than recommendation
engines and funnels, this does the job for nothing. It is a narrower app than the others here, and that is
exactly why it can be free.
Get G: Volume Discounts free → Partner link · no paid tier
The one that gets cheaper as you grow
Post Purchase Upsell Hero charges $0 a month plus 2.5% of the upsell revenue it generates
— but only on the first $20,000 a month. Above that the rate is 0%. Every other
usage-priced app on this page charges you more as you scale; this one stops charging. The practical effect is a
ceiling of roughly $500 a month no matter how large you get.
The honest caveat is the review base: 15 reviews. The pricing model is the most
merchant-friendly here and the track record is the thinnest. That is a real trade, not a hidden one.

Selleasy in detail, since it is our pick
Selleasy is not the flashiest app here and that is rather the point. It covers product-page and cart upsells,
it does not gate features by tier, and its meter is the one most stores can predict: total orders, with the first
50 a month free.
Pros ✓
- 4.9 from 2,502 reviews — second-deepest review base on this page
- Genuinely free below 50 orders a month, with the full feature set
- No feature gating: styling, support and every offer type are on every tier
- $9 to 500 orders and $19 to 1,000 — the gentlest paid step here
- Covers both product page and cart, so one app spans two surfaces
- 30-day trial on paid tiers, longer than most
Cons ✕
- Meters on total store orders, so a busy store with few upsells still pays the higher tier
- No checkout-page upsells — that needs Plus and a different app
- Post-purchase coverage is weaker than ReConvert or Upsell Hero
- Above 1,000 orders the $29 tier is flat, which is fine, but there is no volume discount beyond it
- We have not run it on a live store; this assessment is from the listing, pricing and review distribution

The mistake that costs the most
Almost every store evaluates these apps on the monthly fee and the feature list, then discovers the bill three
months later. The fee is the least informative number on the listing.
Work it out with your own figures before you install. Take your monthly order count, your realistic upsell
acceptance rate — 5–10% is a sane starting assumption, not the 30% in the marketing — and your
average upsell value. Then run that through each meter:
- Total-orders meters (ReConvert, Selleasy, MBC) charge on your whole order book. Cheapest when
upsells are a big share of your orders; worst when you are busy but rarely upsell. - Upsell-revenue meters (Essential Upsell, Rapi, Upsell Hero) only charge when the app earns.
Safer on a high-volume store, and they scale with your success rather than your size. - Flat fees (Koala, UpsellPlus, Wiz) are predictable and become the cheapest option once you are
large — and the most expensive while you are small.
A store doing 800 orders a month with a 6% upsell rate is making roughly 48 upsells. On a total-orders meter you
pay the 800-order price for 48 upsells. On an upsell-revenue meter you pay for 48. That difference is usually
larger than any feature gap on this page.
What we would install, by store
| If you are… | Install | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Under 50 orders a month | Selleasy | Free at your volume, full feature set, and the paid step is only $9 when you outgrow it. |
| Doing real volume, few upsells | Essential Upsell |
Meters on upsell revenue rather than total orders, so a big order book does not inflate the bill. |
| Above $20k/mo in upsells | Upsell Hero | The 0% band above $20k caps you near $500 — cheaper than any percentage that keeps climbing. |
| Only wanting quantity breaks | G: Volume Discounts | Free, 5.0 from 110 reviews, and does precisely that one job. |
| On Shopify Plus | UpsellPlus |
Checkout-page upselling is the highest-intent surface and Plus is the only way to reach it. |
| Running BOGO and free gifts | Koala Kite |
Koala is flat-priced and predictable; Kite is cheaper at low volume but excludes Advanced/Plus from its cheap tiers. |
| Selling bundles, not add-ons | Rapi Bundles |
Free to $100/mo of app-generated revenue with post-purchase upsells included at no cost. |
How to test one without wrecking your conversion rate
- Record your baseline first — conversion rate and average order value, for at
least two weeks. An upsell app that lifts AOV while cutting conversion can lose you money while every dashboard
says it is working. - Start post-purchase. No risk to the order you already have.
- One offer at a time. Stacked offers make attribution impossible and irritate customers.
- Check the meter after 30 days, not the monthly fee. Compare the actual charge against what
the app claims it generated. - Test on mobile. Cart drawers and pop-up offers behave differently on small screens, which is
where most of your traffic is. - Give it a full month before judging. Upsell acceptance rates are noisy at low order counts.
Bottom line
For most stores the answer is Selleasy: free until 50
orders a month, $9 after that, every feature on every tier, and 4.9 across 2,502 reviews. It covers the product
page and the cart, which is where the majority of upsell revenue is available to a non-Plus store.

FAQs
What is the best Shopify upsell app in 2026?
For most non-Plus stores, Selleasy — 4.9 from 2,502 reviews, free to 50 orders a month and $9 after,
covering product page and cart with no feature gating between tiers. If you want post-purchase specifically,
Upsell.com ‑ ReConvert has the deepest review base at 2,793. If you only need quantity breaks, G: Volume
Discounts does that free.
Are there free Shopify upsell apps?
Yes, and they differ. G: Volume Discounts is free outright with no paid tier. Selleasy, Rapi
Bundles, Essential Upsell, MBC and Kite all have free tiers capped by a meter — orders, upsell revenue or
bundle sales — so they are free until you succeed. Read which meter applies before assuming you will stay
free.
Do I need Shopify Plus for checkout upsells?
For upsells on the checkout page itself, yes. That surface depends on checkout extensibility, which is a Plus
capability, so UpsellPlus and Wiz’s $99 tier both require it. Post-purchase and thank-you-page upsells work
on any plan, which is why they are the usual starting point.
Will an upsell app hurt my conversion rate?
It can, on the product page and in the cart, where an offer adds friction before payment. Post-purchase offers
cannot — the order is already complete. Whichever you choose, track conversion rate and average order value
together, because a lift in one can hide a fall in the other.
Why do two apps at the same monthly price cost different amounts?
Because they meter different things. ReConvert counts your total store orders, Essential Upsell counts only
the extra revenue it generated, Easy Bundles counts bundle sales, and Koala charges a flat fee by Shopify plan.
On a busy store with few upsells, the total-orders meter is far more expensive than the headline suggests.
Which upsell app is cheapest at high volume?
Post Purchase Upsell Hero, because its rate falls rather than rises — 2.5% on the first $20,000 of
upsell revenue a month and 0% above that, which caps the cost near $500 regardless of scale. The trade-off is a
thin track record at 15 reviews.
Should I run more than one upsell app?
Generally no. Two apps competing for the same surface produce duplicate offers, conflicting discounts and
attribution you cannot read. The exception is pairing surfaces deliberately — for example a product-page
app plus a post-purchase app — and even then, launch them a few weeks apart so you can tell which did what.
