Your website’s Cart page has a “teaser” widget that shows displays to the user that they can qualify for a higher level of free shipping if they add more items to their cart. Consumers have been trained (thanks mostly to Amazon) to want things delivered as soon as possible, and generally are willing to pay more (in the form of more items) to get to receive that.
This feature attempts to gain elevates your website with two exciting ecommerce e-commerce benefits:
If the user qualifies for a certain level of free shipping, the user is more likely to transact. (Lower Cart Abandonment).
If the user almost nearly qualifies for a higher level of shipping, it encourages the user to add more to their cart to qualify for that level (Increased Order Size).
...
This feature is automatic for the user, and is calculated based on an algorithm that decides when to show either the “You qualify” message or the “Get Free by adding more…” message taking into consideration how far they are away from the next tier. In most instances, this widget will try to encourage the user to add more to their cart, rather than settling for the shipping tier they already qualify for. The “Find Items” link takes the user back to your root items /jewelry (or /jewellery) page where they can easily begin looking for new items.
