Product recommendations

Related products and complementary products below the product details.

On this page

Two features suggest other pieces on the product page: related products, calculated automatically by Shopify in a section below the product details, and complementary products, which you choose yourself, shown by a block in the buy box.

Product recommendations (FR: Recommandations de produits)
Where to add it
Only on product pages

Shopify automatically calculates related products based on order history and product similarity (description, collections, type). It usually takes a few orders before recommendations become more accurate. The default heading is "Related products". To choose related pieces yourself instead, use the Related products block in the buy box.

Complementary products

Complementary products are the ones bought with the product: a belt with a pair of trousers, a care product with a bag. You choose them yourself, product by product, in Shopify's Search & Discovery app. They're shown by the Complementary products block in the product page's buy box: the default template has it at the end of the buy box, and you can add it with Add block in the Product section. The default heading is "Complementary products".

Install Search & Discovery

From the Shopify App Store, install the free Search & Discovery app.

Choose the products

In the app, open Product recommendations, choose a product, and add its complementary products.

Loading and display

  • Both are asked of Shopify after the page has appeared, so they never hold it up: the related products once the page has finished loading, the complementary products straight away.
  • The related products grid has four columns on desktop, and two on tablets and phones. Its cards follow the settings in the Product card group, described in Product cards.
  • The complementary products block lists its products as compact rows (a small photo, the name and the price), each with a quick add button.
