The Extensions area allows you to add functionality to an instance by installing extensions. Most extensions can be installed with a one-click install, but some 3rd party extensions require additional configuration such as creating an account with that service or an API key.

Some extensions require a Simplified Checkout Pro plan.

Installing Extensions

You can browse or use the search bar to find an extension and then click the Install button to install an extension. Some extensions require additional configuration in their respective settings panel to function properly.

My Extensions

Enable or disable the extension with the toggle button. Uninstall using the menu to the right of the toggle. Some extensions come with a setting button, which brings you to extension-specific settings.

Beta Extensions

Extensions with the yellow BETA tag are still in the beta-testing phase. These extensions are made available to install and use, but please note that they may not behave as intended and are subject to change in breaking ways.

Currently Available Extensions

  • 3-D Secure

  • Abandoned Cart Capture

  • Address Autofill & Validate

  • Affiliate & UTM Manager

  • Cross-Sell

  • Direct Checkout Link

Setting up 3-D Secure

To get started with 3DS, click the Settings button and enable PAAY 3DS

You'll need an account with PAAY to obtain the API key. Toggle the Sandbox Mode to disable 3DS when testing your checkout flow.

Setting up Abandoned Cart Capture

Before you're able to sync abandoned carts with Klaviyo, you must Install and configure this extension.

  • Sync Delay: The amount of time before the abandoned cart data is synced with Klaviyo.

  • Cart Expiry Time: How long you want to save an abandoned cart before it expires.

Setting up Address Autofill & Validate

Configure address autofill to help customers fill in their address details faster and more accurately.

  • Suggest Address Autofill: The number of times customers can retype their address and provide suggestions.

  • Validate Addresses: A prompt will suggest the correct address to the customer when an invalid address is detected.

Setting up Affiliate & UTM Manager

Specify and map affiliate, UTM, Facebook, or Google parameters with your CRM.

Simply add your parameter, and specify the associated field in your CRM (Sticky.io in this example)

Setting up Cross-Sells

Installing and configuring this extension enables the cross-sell widget on your checkout.

You can customize the position and design of this cross-sell widget by editing your Checkout page theme in the Flowboard area.

Set up your cross-sell by selecting your desired product(s).

  • Order Processing Method

    • Merged Order: The cross-sell item is processed together with your order.

    • Separate Order: The cross-sell item is processed as a separate order.

  • Product Recommendation

    • Automatic: Suggest a random product added in the Products area (excludes products already in the customer's cart).

    • Static: Select a static product to display as a cross-sell.

  • Preselect Product: Checking this will pre-select the cross-sell product.

  • Define Condition: The cross-sell product will only show when specified conditions are met.

Setting up Direct Checkout Link

This extension allows you to generate a URL with preconfigured items in the cart ready to checkout. It is great for speeding up sales, and allows the customer to skip the store entirely!

Get started by clicking New Link

Enter a name for this offer and select the product(s) you want to offer. You can also specify a different special price for this offer only.

Set the start and end date (if required), and click Save Link

  • Alternate Campaign ID: Specify a different Campaign ID for this offer

  • Shipping Group: Choose the shipping method group. You can configure these from the Shipping area.

Once saved, you'll see your new direct checkout link in the list. Click the Open Link icon to view your preconfigured offer, and share.
