Cross-sell is a conversion tactic that encourages users to purchase complementary products alongside their primary choice. Online stores often do this by suggesting accessories or upgrades at checkout, like offering a laptop bag and mouse when someone buys a laptop. SaaS companies cross-sell by recommending add-on features or usage-based upgrades during onboarding or inside dashboards. When executed thoughtfully, it increases average order value and strengthens customer adoption without feeling intrusive.

Effective cross-sell strategies rely on timing, relevance, and understanding buying context. Many brands experiment with placement of product pages, cart pages, post-purchase pages to find the best moment. Behavioral signals and personalization tools now help tailor recommendations based on browsing patterns or prior purchases.
