Your best offer lives on the product page. Most shoppers decide before they get there, or one tap after they leave. It's in your store, just not where the shopper is.
Your best offer shouldn't live in one place.
A bundle, a free gift, an upsell, a countdown. Sledge places them across nine surfaces, from the homepage and instant search through to the thank-you page, not the product page alone.

// One offer, one page, one shot
You built a great offer, then trapped it on the page fewest shoppers reach.
A shopper lands, searches, scans a collection, maybe hits a product page, then the cart, then they're gone. The buying mood rises and falls across every step. But your bundle, your gift, your upsell sits on one page and waits for the shopper to arrive in the right mood at the right moment. Most never do.
The native Shopify cart makes it worse. It's bare, so you bolt on a slide-cart app for upsells, another for a gift, another for a timer. Now the offer shows up only where it was built, not where it's needed, scattered across three vendors.
A surface in Sledge fixes that: a place on your store where shoppers decide, whether the homepage, instant search, search results, a collection, the product page, either cart, the 404 page, or the thank-you page, and Sledge places offers across all nine, each offer type on the surfaces where it sells.
// The nine places shoppers decide
Nine moments. Nine you can sell on, instead of one.
Each step is a decision you're either using or wasting. Here is where Sledge can meet a shopper:
- The homepage. They just arrived and have decided nothing. Lead with what's moving, and let a banner set the terms before they pick a direction.
- Instant search. The moment a shopper tells you exactly what they want. Show a matching product or a bundle as they type, before they even hit enter.
- The search results. They searched, they're deciding. Boost the right products, surface a relevant offer, recover a dead-end query instead of showing a blank page.
- The collection. They're browsing with intent. Lead with bestsellers, bury sold-out, slot an offer into the grid where eyes already land.
- The product page. They're weighing one product. Add the bundle, the volume deal, the frequently bought together, the back-in-stock form.
- The cart drawer. One tap from buying or leaving. The free-shipping bar, the last-second upsell, the gift that auto-adds, the countdown that finishes the sale.
- The cart page. The considered version of the same moment. Everything the drawer does, for the shopper who opened the full page to think it over.
- The 404 page. A dead link is still a shopper. Show them something to buy instead of an apology and a back button.
- The thank-you page. They already bought, card still warm. A post-purchase offer they add in a tap, right from the confirmation page.
Sledge places offers on nine of them: the homepage, instant search, search results, collections, the product page, the cart drawer, the cart page, the 404 page, and the thank-you page. You pick which offer lives where, and preview it before it goes live. Sell where shoppers decide.
// The matrix: which offer, which surface
"So what can I actually put where?"
One grid, the whole answer. Each row is an offer, each column a surface. A check means Sledge can place that offer there.

"If I put offers everywhere, won't I clutter my whole store?"
Reasonable fear. Offers in the wrong place, or too many, annoy shoppers instead of helping. So Sledge never makes you guess. You choose each surface individually and can preview the offer on that exact page before you enable it, so you see it in place before shoppers do.
Start with the cart. Add instant search when you're ready. Leave the collection alone if it's working.
Questions, answered
Where can I show offers on my Shopify store with Sledge?
On nine surfaces: the homepage, instant search, search results, collections, the product page, the cart drawer, the cart page, the 404 page, and the thank-you page. You choose which offer lives on which surface.
What is a surface in Sledge?
A surface is a place on your store where shoppers make a decision and where an offer can be placed, such as instant search, a collection, the cart drawer, or the 404 page.
Can I show an upsell somewhere other than the product page?
Yes. Sledge places offers across the homepage, instant search, search results, collections, both carts, the 404 page, and the thank-you page, not just the product page. The thank-you-page one is the post-purchase upsell, added right from the order confirmation page.
Can I put a free-shipping bar and an upsell in the cart?
Yes. The Sledge cart drawer holds a free-shipping progress bar, an upsell, an auto-adding free gift, a countdown, and a discount field, together in one drawer.
Will placing offers everywhere clutter my store?
No, because you choose each surface one at a time and can preview the offer on that surface before you enable it. A surface only carries an offer once you turn it on.
