If the offer is accepted, the customer is sent to the success page, otherwise, it is taken to the down-sell page.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>If he accepts the down-sell or not, he lands on the success page, where are listed the item purchased and the amount spent.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>What are Order Bumps?<\/h3>\n<p>\n\tOrder Bumps are add-on products that are offered during checkout.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p> <strong>Examples<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe most common example in the real world is fries offered with your burger.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tOver the internet, we usually see a hosting plan offered when buying a domain. Or a&nbsp;website builder offered when buying a hosting plan.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tOn Amazon, they are the product presented as &#8220;Frequently bought together&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>What are Upsell and Down-sell?<\/h3>\n<p>\n\tOne-click upsell\/down-sell offers, appear after the checkout and take advantage of a tokenized transaction to add products to such transactions after the check out button is clicked. If the upsell is turned down, a down-sell is usually offered.<\/p>\n<p> <strong>Example<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>\n\tAfter buying a new smartphone online, a 256 GB SD card is offered as the upsell. If the offer is turned down, a 128 GB&nbsp;SD card is offered instead as the down-sell.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<img width=\"920\" height=\"431\" src=\"https:\/\/wpgetpaid.com\/documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/file-adP6XNumHg-1024x480.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpgetpaid.com\/documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/file-adP6XNumHg-1024x480.png 1024w, https:\/\/wpgetpaid.com\/documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/file-adP6XNumHg-300x141.png 300w, https:\/\/wpgetpaid.com\/documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/file-adP6XNumHg-768x360.png 768w, https:\/\/wpgetpaid.com\/documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/file-adP6XNumHg.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 920px) 100vw, 920px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <em>Sales Funnel Infographic<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<h2>Setting Things Up<\/h2>\n<p>\n\tThis is extremely easy.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tAfter activating the Sales Funnels extension a new Metabox will appear below each of your items.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<img width=\"920\" height=\"364\" src=\"https:\/\/wpgetpaid.com\/documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/file-h0yqj7eC91-1024x405.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpgetpaid.com\/documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/file-h0yqj7eC91-1024x405.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wpgetpaid.com\/documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/file-h0yqj7eC91-300x119.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wpgetpaid.com\/documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/file-h0yqj7eC91-768x304.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wpgetpaid.com\/documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/file-h0yqj7eC91.jpg 1287w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 920px) 100vw, 920px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\n\tHere you can select:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The success page (Order Complete) that you wish to use for this Funnel.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>The item and page to use for the Upsell.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>The item and page to use for the Downsell.<\/li>\n<li>One or more items to be offered as Order Bumps.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Creating your first Funnel<\/h2>\n<p>\n\tFor a complete Sales Funnel, you will need 4 or more items.
