Offer Shoppers Alternative Products

When a product is out of stock or no longer available, clients may leave your store without making a purchase. The Alternate Product Recommendations for WooCommerce plugin offers a solution. When products are not available, the plugin offers your customers alternate products to consider. When products are in stock, the plugin offers customers additional products to purchase.

Benefits

Customer satisfaction

Offering an alternative product lets your customers know that you care about their shopping experience.

Keep customers shopping and buying

A customer offered an alternative may be interested in that product and may buy it. Hopefully, they will continue to shop on your site instead of leaving in frustration when an item is out of stock.

Reduce cart abandonment

If a customer already has items in their cart and discovers that something they intended to buy is out of stock, they might leave your site. Offering an alternative to keep them on your site will hopefully also lead to them buying the items in their carts and/or the recommended alternate item.

How does it work?

Product no longer available

• A user will normally see a notice saying an item is “No longer available for purchase” when they visit the product page of an out-of-stock item.
• With the Alternate Product Recommendations for WooCommerce plugin, users will see the same notification with an alternate single item, or multiple items, to consider in its place.

Single alternate product

When a user visits a single product page that is no longer available for purchase, an alternate product is displayed for the user’s consideration.

Multiple alternate products

When a user visits a single product page that is no longer available for purchase, multiple alternate products are displayed for the user’s consideration.

Products are available

When products are available, an alternate recommended product or products are displayed.

Single recommended alternate product

When a user visits a single product page that is available for purchase, an alternate product will be displayed to the user for their consideration.

Multiple recommended alternate products

When a user visits a single product page that is available for purchase, multiple alternate products will be displayed to the user for their consideration.
