Bigger baskets for shipping-heavy products
When shipping costs eat your margin, the answer is order size. CornerCart's thresholds and volume tiers push carts past break-even — visibly, in real time.
The food & beverage margin squeeze
Orders below shipping break-even
Heavy products and small orders are a losing combination — every sub-threshold cart costs you money.
One bottle at a time
Consumables should sell in threes and sixes, but nothing in the cart encourages it.
Promotions that miss the moment
Seasonal demand spikes come and go faster than your team can update banners.
The food & beverage playbook
Three plays that move basket size where shipping costs bite.
Free shipping progress bar
Set the threshold just above break-even and let the bar do the selling: "You're $12 away from free shipping."

Buy 3 save 10%, buy 6 save 20%. Volume tiers on the product page make stocking up the default.
Read the use caseSeasonal urgency
Holiday shipping cutoffs and limited drops with a real countdown, scheduled to end themselves.

Every reward tier in one scrollable bar
Multiple milestones — free shipping, a free item, a discount — show as a tiered layout with horizontal scroll, updating live as items are added.
I tried about 10 different cart upsell/free shipping apps before Corner — all had some issue. Corner was the first that worked perfectly. Our AOV has improved dramatically, with more people ordering above the free shipping threshold than previously.

Frequently asked questions
Can thresholds differ by country?
Yes. Campaigns target Shopify Markets, so US and EU carts can have different thresholds and currencies.
Can we auto-add a free item at a spend level?
Yes — and it auto-removes if the cart drops below the tier, so you never ship unearned gifts.
Do volume tiers work on mixed flavors?
Yes. Tiers can be product-wide, so three units of any flavor still hit the discount.
