What Is the Best Shopify Upsell App In 2025?
Deciding between AfterSell and Zipify’s OneClickUpsell? This guide breaks down exactly what you get with each—so you can choose the upsell app that works best for you.
We’ll compare features, pricing, and upsell coverage, because while both apps offer post-purchase upsells, only one gives you the tools to grow AOV at every stage of the customer journey.

Feature Checklist
AfterSell may cover the basics, but it’s missing key upsell placements that drive serious revenue—and because AfterSell charges you for every order, not just upsell conversions, you often end up paying more for less.

If you want to grow AOV, you need to show upsells at every step of the customer journey—not just after checkout. That’s exactly what OneClickUpsell is built to do.
OCU gives you pre-purchase, shopping cart, in-checkout, post-purchase, and even Shop App upsells—all in one app, with one pricing model. No extra installs. No hidden fees.
Why Choose OCU Over AfterSell?
AfterSell claims to support upsells “throughout the customer journey,” but in reality, it stops short. Unless you pay for extra tools like UpCart, you're limited to post-purchase offers and basic cart functionality.
OCU delivers what AfterSell can’t—upsells before, during, and after checkout—all in one app. Here’s how OCU stacks up:
Transparent, Fair Pricing
OCU charges based on upsell revenue. Not order count. Not guesswork.
-
You only pay for what you earn the app performs
-
No hidden fees. No paying for orders OCU didn’t help convert
AfterSell charges based on order volume even if it doesn’t include upsell revenue. With OCU, you only pay for what you earn. No upsells? No fee
Full-Funnel Upsells (Not Just After the Sale)
AfterSell focuses on post-purchase. OCU covers the whole journey.
-
Pre-purchase: Show targeted upsells on product pages, shopping cart, and cart drawer
-
In-checkout: Add upsells directly to Shopify Plus checkout
-
Post-purchase: Deliver one-click offers after checkout with no extra steps
More upsell moments mean more revenue, and OCU gives you all of them. AfterSell doesn’t.
Cart Drawer Upsells That Convert
Aftersell charges up to $199/month for this. OCU built it in for free.
-
Set upsells by trigger (item added, total cart value)
-
Display progress bars and rewards (free shipping, gifts, discounts)
-
Increase urgency with real-time cart messaging
AfterSell needs a separate app for this. OCU gives it to you out of the box.
Built by Merchants, For Merchants
OCU is made by 9-figure Shopify merchants who know what boosts conversions:
-
A/B testing to find what works
-
AI-powered recommendations that boost AOV in 1 click
-
Templates proven on 8 & 9-figure stores
With OCU, you're not starting from scratch. You’re scaling with a system that’s already working.
I love how easy to use OCU is. I’ve been using it years ago before the integration with Shopify, and now with the integration, it’s a night-and-day difference. It’s basically turn-key. Just flipped the switch on, and we’re immediately generating extra revenue. Also, the support is world-class. Very responsive and helpful. Thank you guys!
— ANSON BELT & BUCKLE, US
We just downloaded this app because our other upsell app has limited functionality. After the first couple of days we are already seeing a 2-3x increase in upsells which is amazing. I have no doubt over time, with more testing we will be able (to) improve upon these early successes. This app is a no brainer if you have up or cross sell products.
— KENNEDY BLUE
OCU has been a god send! My AOV has gone up 20% since I started using it. It's so easy to set up. Everything just works. I can focus on marketing instead of tech stuff. I love it. Thanks!
— DAVE P.
OCU Is an incredible app. It has increased our average order value by nearly 2x. It’s easy and intuitive to set up, a real no brainer if you are selling on Shopify!
— SIMON C.
Outstanding app. INSTANTLY Added an extra $6,000 (or 10%) in revenue during our first month! PLUS - Zipify has one of the BEST customer support teams I've ever encountered. Always there to help, always willing to go the extra mile.

OCU Was Built by Shopify Merchants
OneClickUpsell wasn’t built in a vacuum—it was built by real Shopify merchants who’ve scaled 7-, 8-, and 9-figure brands.
OCU’s founder, Ezra Firestone, used the same upsell strategies to help grow Boom Beauty by $5.3M+ in extra revenue, boosting AOV from $67 to $115 and hitting 130x ROI.

Proven in High-Volume Shopify Stores
It’s not just Boom. OCU helped Overtone lift AOV from $51 to $80, generating over $614K in added revenue with a 45x ROI.
Today, over 50,000 Shopify stores—including more than 2,000 Shopify Plus merchants—trust OCU to boost AOV and simplify upselling across the entire customer journey.
Price Comparison Example
Here’s how much you would pay with both apps if your store did 500 orders and generated $900 in extra upsell revenue in one month:
AfterSell:
USD 64.98 / month
AfterSell’s price is based on total orders for both upsell apps, so the monthly price of AfterSell is $64.98 ($29.99 for post-purchase upsells + $34.99 for the shopping cart upsell).
OneClickUpsell:
USD 44 / month
OneClickUpsell’s charges a flat fee for unlimited orders plus 1% of upsell revenue, so you only pay $44 for the month ($35 subscription + $9 in upsell revenue).
In this example, AfterSell actually costs 47% more than OCU, and you’re paying for fewer features. Use cases like these are why OneClickUpsell has an average return on investment (ROI) of 30x.
OneClickUpsell Only Charges You For Upsell Revenue
On the other hand, OneClickUpsell includes unlimited orders at every price tier and charges 1% of upsell revenue instead so you don’t pay extra just because you have a high-volume store.
This pricing model ensures that merchants only pay for the value the app provides.
Amazing app guys!! Their pre-purchase upsell is definitely worth it. You will get so much more revenue just by the pre-purchase feature. Ezra is also constantly making videos and giving a lot of hints on how to get bigger AOV and CVR. Really Amazing.

Comparing Customer Support
Both OneClickUpsell and AfterSell are recognized by Shopify for their excellent and speedy customer service, so there isn’t a significant difference there.
However, OneClickUpsell has been a leading upsell app since 2016, so their in-house support team has more years of experience on the Shopify platform and a longer track record of success.
That experience is important when your money’s on the line and you need a quick solution.
And for OCU Plus merchants, OneClickUpsell also offers concierge account management and ongoing optimization, and AfterSell does not.
This exclusive customer support feature adds 20% to your AOV, on average.
And to prove it, here’s what OneClickUpsell users have said about the customer support they received:
I recently contacted customer service and was absolutely blown away by the level of care and attention I received. The representative I spoke with was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and went above and beyond to ensure that all of my concerns were addressed. Their exceptional service has made me a loyal customer for life. Thank You!

Comparing Shopify Integrations
OCU is a Shopify Plus Certified App and AfterSell is not.
For an app to become Shopify Plus Certified App it requires rigorous testing by Shopify. This certification ensures the app’s technology works seamlessly with their platform, so it’s safe and reliable for their highest-end stores.
Less than 150 apps in total have earned this certification, and it’s a stamp of approval from Shopify that OneClickUpsell’s is designed to “reduce complexity in your business so you can focus on growth”.
So whether you’re on Shopify Plus or you just want the most reliable upsell app for your Shopify store, OneClickUpsell is a better choice than AfterSell.
OneClickUpsell Integrates With Shopify’s Shop App
OneClickUpsell is the only upsell app on the market that integrates with the Shop app. That means OCU users are the only merchants on Shopify who can offer post-purchase upsells to the app’s 100 million users.
In fact, Shopify asked OneClickUpsell to develop the new upsell integration for their Shop app instead of AfterSell or any other app developer because of OCU’s exceptional performance.
OneClickUpsell users get this Shop integration for free, and it gives your business a clear competitive advantage by unlocking a brand new revenue source you can use to scale your store.
If you aren’t familiar with the Shop app yet — it’s Shopify’s new mobile shopping app for iOS and Android. Shopify created Shop to compete with Amazon and they’re calling it the future of the Shopify platform. That’s why this integration is such a big deal for Shopify merchants.
