Order gifts for glasses and contact lens stores
A buyer of sunglasses or contact lenses gets a hotel deal, a month of streaming or audiobooks. AI hides other stores' glasses, watches and accessories.
What your customers will see
People buy sunglasses for a vacation, and lenses and frames go to people who read and look at screens a lot. A hotel, an audiobook or a series continues what the glasses were bought for.

Gift categories for this niche
How people buy glasses and lenses
Sunglasses are bought for a vacation or ahead of the season, and lenses are ordered in bulk for months. The first is a trip purchase: after paying, the buyer is already mentally at the sea. A hotel and travel continue the order without any explanation.
People who wear glasses or lenses read and look at screens a lot. For them, rest means listening instead of reading and watching instead of searching. Audiobooks and streaming fit, and AI hides other stores' watches, jewelry and glasses.
Example calculation for an optical store
Say the store gets 300 orders a month. 10% of buyers pick a gift (30 buyers), and 20% of those follow through (6 buyers), for example with a booking or a subscription. The payout in this example is €15 per new customer.
6 buyers × €15 = €90, and your 60% is €54. Lenses are ordered regularly, so the order flow is steadier than for one-off purchases. But partners pay for a new customer, and a repeat order of the same lenses doesn't bring new income by itself.
How to set up gifts in an optical store
Optical is a niche category, and the block shouldn't look like an ad for someone else's glasses.
- Keep travel, streaming and audiobooks.
- If you sell sports glasses, keep fitness apps: they fit the theme.
- If you stock eye drops and lens care, check that "Health & supplements" is hidden.
- Place a test order with glasses and lenses and look at the block on the page and in the email.
- After a month, check in the dashboard what gets more clicks: hotels or streaming.

Optical stores: questions
I also sell eye drops. Will AI understand that?
Yes, and it will hide "Health & supplements". That category is already off by default as a sensitive one.
Prescription glasses take a week to make. When does the buyer see the gifts?
Right after payment: on the thank-you page and in the order confirmation email. Production time doesn't affect when the block shows.
Does ThanklyClub work for a sunglasses-only store?
Yes, and the selection is simpler: AI ranks travel and hotels higher, because people often buy such glasses before a trip.
I sell only lenses. Which categories should I keep?
Travel, streaming and audiobooks suit lenses as well. Glasses and eye-care products are hidden as part of your range.
My frames and sunglasses look like fashion items. Will AI treat me as a clothing store?
AI looks at the whole catalog and works out the profile itself. If it gets it wrong, adjust the categories manually in the dashboard.
When should I install the plugin if demand for sunglasses is seasonal?
Before the season: by the first order peak, the block is already set up and checked with a test order.
What does it cost?
Nothing. The plugin is free and advertisers pay. Your store gets 60% of the partner payout for every qualifying customer action: a sign-up, subscription or purchase.
Will customers go to my competitors?
No. The AI analysis hides categories that overlap with your catalog: a shoe store will never show a shoe discount. You can also blocklist any domain.
What data do partners get?
No personal data. Your customer's name, email, address and phone number are never shared with ThanklyClub or with advertisers. Matching uses order product categories, order value range, country and language.
