Timer Settings #
Enable the offer expiration countdown timer notice
Activates a visible countdown timer for the offer.
When enabled, customers will see a timer (e.g., 01:30) indicating how long the offer is available.
If the timer expires before the user accepts the offer, the deal will be skipped, and the order process continues normally.
💡 Ideal for creating urgency and increasing conversions.

Sets the total time the offer will remain visible to the customer.
Use a format like 01:00 for 1 minute or 00:30 for 30 seconds.
💡 Keep it short to encourage fast decision-making without overwhelming the user.
Message
Customize the message that appears above or next to the countdown timer.
Use dynamic, action-driven text (e.g., “Limited Time Offer”, “Act Fast”, or “Only available for the next few seconds”) to create urgency.
💡 You can also localize the message based on your store language.
Display Conditions #
Most boosters support “conditional visibility” based on order, time, and other parameters. These rules allow you to target very specific use cases, like:
– Show only during business hours (e.g., 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM)
– Activate only when a product from category “Accessories” is purchased
– Display for users from specific roles (e.g., logged-in customers)
Frontend Result #
Once configured, the Post Purchase Upsells booster displays a targeted product offer immediately after checkout, before the Thank You page is fully shown.
If the customer accepts the offer, the additional product is added to the original order seamlessly — without requiring a new checkout session or separate payment.
💡 This experience is smooth, distraction-free, and designed to maximize conversions right after the customer has already committed to buying.
Troubleshooting #
If your booster isn’t displaying as expected, check the following:
- Confirm the booster is enabled
- Ensure the filters match the order
- Disable aggressive caching plugins temporarily
- Make sure your payment gateway is compatible with post-purchase behavior
