Duplicate Products (Non-Plus)

This is Elevate's price testing method for stores on standard Shopify plans. It works by creating duplicate products with different prices, then splitting traffic between the original and the duplicate so you can measure which price performs better.

How It Works

  1. You create a copy of your product with a different price

  2. Elevate splits visitors — some see the original, others see the duplicate

  3. Both experiences look identical except for the price

  4. Elevate tracks conversions, revenue, and other metrics for each group

  5. Once enough data is collected, the statistical model identifies the winning price

Because this method uses separate products, there's some additional setup involved — copying reviews, syncing third-party apps, and going through an initial Elevate review. After the first time, the process gets faster.
