How to upsell recently viewed products
Recently Viewed Data allows Order Editing to track which products customers have browsed on your store. This data powers upsell strategies that show "Recently Viewed Products," creating personalized, relevant recommendations.
Why Recently Viewed Data Matters
Highly effective personalization: Products customers have already viewed show proven interest. Displaying these items in upsells significantly increases conversion rates compared to generic recommendations.
How to Enable Recently Viewed Data
For Order Editing to track recently viewed products, you must enable the Order Editing app in your theme settings.
Step-by-Step Instructions:
In your Shopify Admin, go to Sales Channels
Click Online Store
Navigate to Themes
Click Customize (for your active theme)
In the theme editor sidebar, scroll down to find App embeds (usually at the bottom)
Locate Order Editing App in the list
Toggle ON to enable the Order Editing App
Enable the following settings:
Shop Pay (if available)
Automatically Expand Sections to Show (if available)
Click Save
Important Notes
Must be enabled for tracking to work - Without this, Recently Viewed strategies won't have data to display
