Add Upsell Form Blocks to Legacy ONTRApages
About Upsell Forms
Note: This article covers our legacy ONTRApages builder. For details on our newest Page builder, see this article.
Applies to: ONTRAPORT Plus and above.
Upsell Forms give you the ability to offer your customers a product upsell when purchasing something from you. With the original order already processed and the customer's purchase information cached, all they need to do is click a Yes or No button to quickly accept or reject your special offer. This can increase sales as the customer does not have to re-enter their payment information.
Upsell Forms are available in ONTRApages as an upsell form block, and as ONTRAforms you can embed on your own website or as a pop up on an ONTRApages sales page.
Upsell Forms are available in ONTRAPORT Pro and above accounts.
Note: Order forms and upsell forms must be published on a web page with SSL (HTTPS) in order to display. As of April 30, 2018, order forms on non-HTTPS pages will not display and will instead have a placeholder image displayed.
Requirements of Upsell Forms
Read this article to setup your global Upsell Settings and that you are aware of the requirements for Upsell Forms.
- Upsell Forms MUST be on the same domain and use the same payment gateway as the Order Form that triggered it.
- You cannot use standard PayPal as the payment gateway.
- Order Forms process transactions immediately, but Upsell Forms are submitted to a processing queue that runs every 15 minutes. Depending on your global Upsell Form Settings and when the Upsell Form enters that processing queue there may be an additional delay from one to 14 minutes before the credit card is charged and the Campaigns or Rules on that Upsell Form run.
- Tracking scripts MUST exist on both the Order Form page and the Upsell Form page. If you are using ONTRApages, a Wordpress site that is integrated with PilotPress or Legacy Landing Pages, tracking scripts are added automatically.
- Upsell forms and the original order form MUST be published on a domain protected by a SSL certificate, using the HTTPS protocol.
- Some WordPress themes and third-party landing page generators (e.g., LeadPages) strip the JavaScript code as part of their security procedures, and may not work with Upsell Forms. Consult with your theme or third party landing page vendor for remedies.
