How to calculate average order value
Why average order value matters for Shopify users
Increasing AOV is one of the fastest ways to grow revenue without needing additional traffic. It indicates whether your merchandising, cross-sell, and upsell strategies are effective.
Shopify merchants can segment AOV by traffic source, product category, and customer type to understand which segments purchase more and replicate those patterns across the store.
Understand and act on average order value with KPI Tree
Connect your Shopify data warehouse replica to KPI Tree and compute AOV automatically. Place it in a revenue tree alongside conversion rate and traffic volume to show how each lever contributes.
Assign merchandising or commercial ownership and set alerts when AOV drops below its rolling average.
