Recommended products in Cart Drawer
The Recommended Products section lets you upsell complementary or related items directly inside the ConvertX Cart Drawer.
This is one of the main ways Cart Drawer can generate additional revenue.
What you can customize
Recommended Products settings include:
- Section title
- Add button text
- Recommendation source
- Maximum number of products
- Layout mode
- Slide spacing
- Scrollbar visibility
- Card background and radius
- Image size
- Product title and price styling
- Compare-at price display
- Button style and button price metadata
Recommendation source
ConvertX supports recommendation logic based on:
- Related products
- Complementary products
- A mixed source
Choose the source that matches your catalog quality and the type of upsell you want to surface.
Layout and card design
Recommended Products can be styled to feel compact or more prominent.
Key choices include:
- Horizontal or vertical card layout
- Light or large add button style
- Product card radius and background
- Button colors
- Optional compare-at price display
Use a layout that stays easy to scan inside a narrow drawer. On most stores, fewer products with stronger relevance perform better than a large carousel.
Troubleshooting
Check that the section is enabled in the Cart Drawer body, that the recommendation source can return products, and that Cart Drawer itself is active.
Reduce max products, simplify button metadata, or use a more compact card layout.
Review product relevance first. Design helps, but recommendation quality matters more than showing many products.
Best practices
- Limit the number of products
- Keep only highly relevant recommendations
- Use clear add-to-cart button text
- Avoid turning the cart into a full collection page
