Axxell Integration Opencart (extension)

This Opencart extension shows a list of products that may be interested by shoppers. It uses the Axxell API to provide intelligent recommendations.

Note: this is a minimal module that uses the Axxell API. We hope the Opencart Community extends this in the future to make it more user friendly and add more features.

Features

• Configure Axxell API information
• Configure number items to show (ideal count is 5)
• Configure the type of recommendations to show: personalized or similar items
• Backfill with random products when needed
• Widget can be placed wherever you want
