What is this “With Another” thing on my products?

We’ve used a watch from the ever-popular Bamboo Revolution for illustrations on this guide. Check out her store.

Let’s say you’re selling a watch

With Another - Watch Single

…that costs R100

With Another - Box Single

…that you charge R50 to post

With Another - Credit Card Single

Your buyer pays R150

 

But what if the buyer buys two watches? This happens:

With Another - Watch Double

My two products cost:

  R100
+ R100
------
  R200
 

With Another - Box Double

Postage for two is:

  R50
+ R50
-----
 R100
 

With Another - Credit Card Double

So the buyer has to pay:

  R200
+ R100
------
  R300
 

Ok, I get it. But my watches are smallish. Posting more than one only costs me a little bit extra.

Awesome. So then you’ll be wanting to adjust the postage cost for your buyers who buy more than one watch from you. This way your buyers are paying a more fair price, aren’t turned off by unreasonable postage prices, and are incentivised to buy more things from you.

On Hello Pretty you’ll see a With Another option on your shipping profile.

With Another - Shipping Settings

The With another item value you set is what your buyers pay for shipping each watch they buy from you after the first one. In other words, a watch they buy from you with another watch.
 

So let’s say you use the values in the screenshot above, shipping is R50, and with another item is R20.

Your buyer buys two watches from you and you package them up together in the same box. This is what they’re going to pay:

With Another - Watch Double

  R100
+ R100
------
  R200
 

With Another - Box Double

  R50
+ R20
-----
  R70
 

With Another - Credit Card Double

  R200
+  R70
------
  R270
 

You could also set the With Another option to R0 – in other words, FREE! This will mean that your buyer will never pay more than R50, whether they buy one watch or ten watches. And buyers love free shipping.

Everybody’s happy!
