How do I add a Gift with Purchase to my site?

Gifts with Purchase (GWP) are used to give customers free products for buying other products on your site.

Overview

A GWP is currently the only promotion type that can be used with or without a promotion code. If you want to provide a GWP without requiring your customer to enter (for example, a free gift with any purchase), then you would just leave the "Promotion Code" entry box blank and the GWP will be automatically applied.

Due to this functionality, it also means that a customer is now able to get multiple promotions upon checkout. A customer could get a GWP which doesn't require a code, in addition to another promotion(coupon, GWP) which does require a code upon checkout. WSM still only allows one promotion code per checkout.

Steps

  1. Log into the back end of your WSM
  2. Hover over Catalog
  3. Click Promotions
  4. Click Add Promotion
  5. Enter all the values for the fields in the Information section according to the table below - This section is mandatory for all Coupons
  6. Set the Promotion Type to Gift
  7. Based upon your Discount Type selection complete the remaining fields in the Rewards Section as explained below
  8. The last section is your coupon Restrictions (all restrictions are optional; if you do not wish to set restrictions, skip to final step)
  9. Click Save Changes and start promoting!
