 "best_for": "Shopify stores that want related-product, upsell and frequently-bought-together recommendations on product pages and cart, with hand-picked control, at a fixed monthly price for a known click volume",
 "skip_if": "you want a usable free plan, you get far more than 10,000 recommendation clicks a month and need a published price for that, or you mainly want checkout upsells on a store that is not on Shopify Plus",
 "honest_knock": "The meter is recommendation clicks, and the free plan's 50 a month runs out on almost any live store, with the app's branding shown until you pay. The full set of 8 placements, including checkout, thank-you and post-purchase pages, starts on the $49.99 plan; the $29.99 plan stops at 3. The developer page prices extra clicks on the entry plan at $0.012 each but showed no amounts for its higher tiers when we read it, and the listing does not say whether checkout placement needs Shopify Plus. We have not used the app ourselves.",

  "notes": "(read 2026-10-11 on the Shopify App Store listing apps.shopify.com/cross-sell and on the developer's own pricing page csell.io/pricing, USD; the listing says all charges are billed in USD and recurring charges every 30 days) Upsell & Cross Sell by Aheadworks is priced by recommendation clicks and by the number of store locations it may appear in. The Free Upsell Plan is $0: cross-sells and upsells in 2 locations, 50 upsell recommendation clicks a month, and Cross Sell branding on the widget. StartUp Upsell is $29.99 a month or $299 a year (the listing says save 17%): 3 locations, 2,500 recommendation clicks a month and no branding. Small Store Upsell is $49.99 a month or $499 a year: all 8 locations and 5,000 clicks a month. MediumStore Upsell is $59.99 a month or $599 a year: the 8 locations plus custom pages and 10,000 clicks a month. Every paid plan has a 14-day free trial. The listing names the 8 locations as including product pages, cart, checkout, order status, thank-you and post-purchase pages. The developer's own pricing page lists two further tiers, 50,000 clicks a month and unlimited clicks, but showed no amount for any tier when we read it, and on the 2,500-click plan it prints extra recommendation clicks at $0.012 per click.",

  "why": "Selleasy is in our dossiers too and is metered differently: on our 19 September reading it charged by your store's total monthly orders, free under 50 and $29 above 1,000, with the same features at every step and checkout upsells only on a $49 Pro tier outside the App Store listing. Upsell & Cross Sell - AW charges by recommendation clicks and placements instead. A store with many orders but few clicks on recommendations pays less here; a store whose shoppers click a lot pays less on Selleasy. Count both numbers for your own store before choosing."
