One-Click Upsells Right After Payment
A one-click upsell is an offer shown right after the buyer pays. On Vonza they take it with one click on the card they just used, without typing their card again, on checkouts and in funnels.
What is a one-click upsell?
A one-click upsell, also called a post-purchase upsell, is an offer shown right after a buyer completes a payment. The buyer accepts it with one click, and the payment details they just used are charged again.
It works because the decision to buy is already made and the card is already entered. The offer only needs to be the obvious next step: a coaching call after a course, the advanced programme after the beginner one.
A downsell is the smaller offer shown when the upsell is declined. An order bump is different again: it is ticked on the checkout before paying.
| Compared | One-click upsell | Downsell | Order bump |
|---|---|---|---|
| When it is shown | Right after payment | After the upsell is declined | On the checkout, before paying |
| How the buyer takes it | One click | One click | Ticks a box |
| Where on Vonza | Checkouts and funnels | Funnels | Checkouts, funnels and forms |
Two ways to upsell on Vonza
One offer after a checkout, or a whole upsell and downsell path in a funnel.
After a checkout
Switch on “Offer one more thing” in a checkout’s After payment settings. The offer shows right after payment, before your thank-you.
- One item you sell, or a custom line
- One one-time price and your own button label
- Then a confirmation page, your message or your link
In a funnel
Add an Upsell step after the checkout, and a Downsell step for buyers who say no. Switch on “One-click purchase” on either step.
- Upsell: one more thing right after a purchase
- Downsell: a smaller offer when the upsell is declined
- An automation can follow up when an offer is declined
How the one click works
What happens between “Yes, add it” and the thank-you, on a Vonza checkout.
The card just used
A buyer who paid by card through Stripe is charged on that card again, with nothing to type.
Paystack in Naira
A buyer who paid with Paystack is charged on the card they just used, too.
A 30-minute window
The offer can be taken for 30 minutes after the first payment.
Never what they own
Vonza skips the offer when the buyer just bought that item or already owns it.
No dead end
If the card is declined, the page says so and shows the payment form to pay another way.
Wallet buyers
Buyers who paid with Apple Pay or Google Pay see the payment form for the offer.
Affiliate credit kept
The affiliate who referred the first purchase is kept on the offer.
Then your thank-you
After the offer: a confirmation page, your own message, or your own link.
