Cross-Sell recommends add-on items to customers during ordering to help them discover more and increase order size. INFI supports both Smart (AI) Cross-Selling and Custom Cross-Selling, and lets you set rules at the order level or the item level. This guide walks you through it.
Good to know: Smart Cross-Selling is powered by INFI AI. Your AI rules analyze the most recent 15-day window of orders to generate recommendations. When both are on, manual (Custom) rules appear first in the cross-sell popup, followed by AI recommendations.
Getting there
- Log in to the Merchant Console.
- Open Cross Sell. From the left-hand navigation menu, go to Promotion → Cross Sell.
- Select your location. Find your location in the list and click Manage to open its cross-sell settings. The Smart Cross-Selling column shows whether AI cross-sell is currently ON.
Two types of Cross-Sell
Inside a location, you'll see two tabs:
- Order-based Cross-Sell — Recommends up to 6 add-ons based on what customers already have in their cart.
- Item-based Cross-Sell — Every time a customer adds a specific item to the cart, immediately recommends a list of add-ons based on that item.
Smart Cross-Selling (INFI AI)
Automatically generates suggestions based on the current cart (or the selected item, on the Item-based tab) and regularly updated sales trends. Recommendations appear dynamically when relevant matches are found.
- Toggle Smart Cross-Selling on to enable AI recommendations.
- The Data Last Updated at timestamp shows when the AI last refreshed its sales analysis.
- On the Item-based tab, click View Rules to see the AI-generated cross-sell rules and selling items.
Custom Cross-Selling
Define your own rules for which items to recommend. Custom rules always appear before AI recommendations in the popup.
- Order-based: Toggle Custom Cross-Selling on, then choose up to 6 items to always recommend in the cart.
- Item-based: Click Create a Cross-sell to define which add-ons to recommend when a specific item is selected. Give the rule a name, pick the triggering (selling) item and the cross-sell items, and set its status.
Tips
- Use Custom rules to force specific pairings (for example, always suggest a drink with a combo), and let Smart Cross-Selling fill in the rest based on real sales trends.
- Since AI rules use the last 15 days of orders, recommendations improve as more orders come in.
- Each location is managed separately, so set up cross-sell for every location you want it on.
