Product recommendations

What are product recommendations?

Product recommendations can enable easy discovery of Buy with Prime products in your Buy with Prime cart and checkout pages. Product recommendations are automatically generated, based on your best-selling products that offer Buy with Prime. Shoppers can either click “Add” button next to the recommended item in their Buy with Prime cart or on the checkout page to add the recommended products to their existing cart and then continue with the checkout.

Shoppers see the recommendations on their Buy with Prime cart or checkout page with the message “Best sellers at [Your Store] from Buy with Prime.” The recommendation includes the item image, title, price, and Prime checkmark logo. After shoppers add one of the recommended products to their order, the recommendations feature reloads and replaces the product with an additional recommended product (if available). Shoppers can see up to three Buy with Prime products recommended at once. Shoppers can choose to add additional products to their cart or complete their checkout using Buy with Prime.
