To get started, simply create a coupon that includes one or more giveaway products. Once the customer reaches the checkout stage, they can select the desired giveaway product(s). Moreover, with the plugin, you have the flexibility to set your giveaways at a discounted rate or percentage, giving you more control over the promotions. For example, Buy X and get Y at a discounted price, Spend X and get Y at a discounted percentage, etc. By using these strategies, you can enhance your marketing campaigns and increase customer satisfaction.

  • Select the products to provide as a giveaway from the Free Products section. By doing so, the chosen product(s) will be added to the customer’s cart upon applying the coupon. However, during checkout, the plugin will prompt the customer to choose a free product from the available options.
  • The Giveaway discount option enables you to offer free products at a discounted or percentage price. Simply input the desired value and select either % or $ from the drop-down. For instance, you could offer a 30% discount or a $30 discount on the selected free product. If you wish to offer the entire product for free, there’s no need to select anything here.
  • By selecting the Apply tax only on discounted value option, you can discount the tax of the giveaway product, in addition to its price. This means the tax will only be applied to the cart value after the discount.
  • Finally, Click on Publish and your Giveaway coupon is ready to use.
