Gift Wrap Add-On: Sell Wrapping in One Tick
TrooixShare
A lot of orders are gifts, and the shopper buying one would happily pay a few dollars to have it wrapped - if you offered it. Most stores don't, so the shopper wraps it themselves or the moment passes. Offering wrapping right on the product page turns a thoughtful little extra into real added revenue on orders you were already getting.
A gift wrap add-on puts a tickable checkbox next to Add to Cart that charges a fixed wrapping fee. When a shopper ticks it, the fee is added to their order as a real cart line - on both Add to Cart and Buy it now - so it never gets dropped. And a dashboard card shows you how many orders included gift wrap.
Here's the whole thing - built for your store just by describing it:
What your customer sees
By Add to Cart, a simple "Add gift wrap" checkbox with your price on it. Tick it and the wrapping fee joins the order as its own cart line, carried all the way through checkout - whichever button they use to buy. See it live on the custom name necklace in our demo store.
- A gift-wrap checkbox by Add to Cart - tick it and a fixed wrapping fee is added as a real cart line, not a fragile note.
- Works on Add to Cart and Buy it now - the fee is applied on both paths, so it never slips through on an express checkout.
- Your price, your wording - set the fixed fee and the checkbox label from your own admin screen.
Where it earns its keep
Any store whose products get given as gifts - and especially around birthdays and the holidays, when a good share of your orders are headed to someone else. It's found money on orders you were already making, and the dashboard card lets you see at a glance how many shoppers are taking you up on it.
It pairs neatly with a free shipping progress bar - the bar nudges shoppers toward a bigger cart, and gift wrap is an easy, worthwhile extra to add on the way to the free-shipping line.

Questions, answered
What is a gift wrap add-on?
It's a checkbox next to Add to Cart that lets shoppers add gift wrapping for a fixed fee. When they tick it, the fee is added to their order as a real cart line, and every accepted order is counted for you.
Does the fee stick through checkout?
Yes. The wrapping fee is added as a genuine cart line on both Add to Cart and Buy it now, so it carries through to checkout and doesn't get dropped on an express purchase.
Can I see how many orders included gift wrap?
Yes. A dashboard card counts the orders that included gift wrap, so you can see at a glance how the add-on is doing.
