Overview #
Basket additions is a marketing feature where the shopper adds a product to the basket and an additional product gets automatically added to the basket. This is useful in scenarios where the additional product is a catalog to use the main product. It could also be some non shippable service that can be used along with the new product that the shopper would likely need.
Example: Setting up an antivirus software product as a basket addition to a laptop.
