Free gifts
A free gift for the order total or for buying selected products.
A gift works where a discount no longer convinces: shoppers top up their cart to reach the threshold, the average order value grows, and the shop pays the cost of one product instead of a percentage off every sale.
What it does
- Gives a product away for the order total, in tiers: "spend 2000 — get a cream, spend 3500 — a cream and a pouch". A higher tier adds gifts to the lower ones instead of replacing them.
- Gives a gift for buying particular products, brands or categories — "a pack of coffee with a coffee machine" — where the order total plays no part.
- Counts the threshold by the number of items as well, not only by money: "buy three packs, the fourth is a gift".
- Puts a single gift in the cart on its own and lets shoppers choose when there are several — you decide how many they may take.
- Shows a "350 ₴ left to your gift" bar in the cart, and a note on the product page that a gift comes with it.
- Caps the giveaway: per order, per shopper and per campaign in total. Once the stock you set runs out, the gift stops being offered.
- Never promises what the warehouse does not have: a gift that ran out disappears from the list on its own.
- Removes the gift when the cart stops matching the condition, so nobody checks out with something they no longer earned.
- Marks gifts in the order and in printed documents, and reports how many went out and what they cost the shop.
- A cancelled order returns its gifts to the campaign's stock.
What it needs
- The products you are ready to give away — ordinary catalogue products with stock.
- At least one tier with a threshold and a list of gifts.
- A cost price on the gift products if you want the report to show what the campaign cost.
What appears in the shop
This is what a shopper sees once it is installed.
- Above the cart items a bar appears saying «350 ₴ left to your gift», so the shopper sees how much to add.
- Below the cart totals a «Your gift» block appears: the gift received, or a choice of the ones available at this order total. The block refreshes together with the cart: add a product and the gifts recalculate without reloading the page.
- On the product page, under the buy button, a «Comes with a gift» note appears with the gift's name and photo.
Подарок, для которого не отмечен ни один товар, больше не сохраняется молча: магазин предупреждает об этом сразу.
The section in the new panel
Gifts are set up in the new control panel. On the left you filter by state — which gifts are being handed out, which are scheduled and which have run out; a list row shows the condition, the number of gifts and how many were given away, and you can switch a gift on or off right there. Gift products are found with the same search the storefront uses.
Gifts for goods sold by the pack
A gift of such a product is given as a whole pack — a shop does not hand out an opened pack even for free. In the «how much is left to add» hint the unit is spelled out, just as on the product page.
An icon of its own
In the «Plugins» section and in the list of installed items the add-on now shows its own icon instead of an identical box, so you find the one you need at a glance. The icon appears on shops running version 1.30.0 and newer.
The gift's price matches what the shopper sees
The add-on reads product prices through the same calculation the rest of the shop uses, so the gift's regular value in the cart and in the list of available gifts matches the storefront price — including when the product has its own currency or a promotion applies to it.
This update requires shop version 1.27.0 or newer.
A gift for quantity, not just for order total
The gift threshold can now be counted by a feature total in the cart. If the shop sells pills, metres or litres, the gift is earned by how many of them add up in total, whatever the pack sizes: “20 pills in total — here is your gift”. The value comes from the SKU, or from the product when the SKU has none; products without that feature do not count towards the threshold.
Tiers now work either way. A higher tier can still add gifts to the lower ones, or you can switch to the opposite — only the reached tier applies. The latter is what you want when tiers are set as ranges (“10–19”, “20–29”): otherwise the top tier would show the shopper everything from the tiers below as well.
Gifts with an order
A gift for the order total with tiers, or for chosen products; the shopper picks it themselves in the cart.
