Conditions

After adding the details, the admin can now configure the conditions based on which the gift rule will work.

The admin can set the following 5 conditions to offer free gift products to customers.

1. Total cart amount
2. Product in cart
3. Country
4. Customer
5. Customer group

Please note the admin needs to enable at least one condition for the gift rule to work.

Total cart amount

The admin needs to define the minimum amount based on which free gift product will display to customer.

If a customer’s cart total is equal to or more than the minimum cart amount, then only the customer would be eligible for a free gift product.

Front End View

As per the rule, if the cart total is equal to or more than $ 49.99, then customer can avail free gift product.

If the cart total is less than $ 49.99, then free gift products won’t display as shown in the below screenshot.

Include tax, shipping, and discount

If enabled, then product tax, product discount, and shipping charges will be considered to evaluate cart amount for placing an order.

Suppose the admin has set $ 59 as minimum cart amount.

In the above screenshot, we can see that product discount, tax, and shipping charges have been applied to the cart total.

Since cart total is more than $ 59, free gift products are being displayed on the cart page.

Suppose the admin has disabled the inclusion of tax, discount, and shipping to the cart amount.

Now the tax, discount, and shipping amount will not be considered in the cart amount. Therefore, free gift products are not displayed.

Product in cart

This condition enables the admin to offer free gift products on the purchase of specific products and products belonging to specific categories, suppliers, or manufacturers.

Product

In the product field, the admin can select the products on whose purchase, free gift products will be available.

As per the condition, free gift products are available on the purchase of products selected by the admin.

Categories

The customers can avail free gift products if they purchase the products that belong to the categories selected by the admin in the ‘Category’ field.

As per the condition, free gift products are available on the purchase of products belonging to the selected categories.

The customer has added a product ‘Mug The adventure begins’ to the cart. Therefore, free gift product are displayed on the shopping cart page.

Please note that the specific category condition applies only when the product’s default category matches.

Similarly, the admin can select suppliers & manufacturers and customers who purchase their products can avail free gift product.

Please note that the gift rule will work if any of the condition i.e. product, categories, supplier, or manufacturer is met.

Let me explain this with the help of an example.

Suppose the admin has selected “the adventure begins framed poster” and “Today is a good day framed poster in ‘Product’ field” and “accessories” in the category field.

Now if a customer adds any of the selected products or product that belong to the selected category, free gift products will display on the cart page.

In the above screenshot, it can be seen that free gift products are displayed as the customer has added a product from the Accessories category.

Country

The admin can select countries whose customers can avail free product gifts on purchase.

It can be seen in the above screenshot, free gift product are displayed as the customer is from United States.
