Order bump: offer an add-on at checkout
An order bump is a small extra offer in the cart and order summary, for example a workbook to go with a course. In Merchavio there is exactly one order bump, and it applies store-wide to every purchase.
When an order bump makes sense
An order bump works when the add-on is cheap compared to the main product and fits almost every purchase: a template pack, a checklist, a bonus recording. Buyers decide with one click, without leaving the checkout.

Tips from practice
- Keep the add-on well below the main price, so the decision is easy.
- Pick a product that fits all buyers. The bump appears with every purchase in your store.
Common mistakes
- Choosing a subscription. Only one-time products can be an order bump; subscriptions are bought on their own.
- Leaving the bump product as a draft. The checkout only shows the bump once the product is live.
