The new actions allow to auto-add a free gift in a various ways - without any conditions, with Magento core conditions, on each $X spent, within a BOGO promotion and within an Each N promotion.

Offer a discounted item to the customer

You can also use the new cart rules to offer non-free (discounted) products.

That is, once the customer cart fulfils the cart rule conditions, let him know that he can select his discounted products by displaying a cathy message in the cart.

The customer can click the message and select his free / discounted products directly within the cart.

Auto-add a free gift (or offer a discounted product) with or without a condition

Make your customers happy by auto-adding a free gift to their cart, without any condition. Or offer your customers a discounted product with or without any condition.

The condition can be a Magento core condition. It can also be one of the new conditions introduced by the extension - eg: customer attributes, customer sales history and more.

• Auto-add a small gift to every customer order.
• Female customers get a free perfume sample on every purchase.
• Old customers (customers who purchased in the past) - get a watch for $50 only.
• New customers - get two t-shirt with 50% discount

Create Birthday Coupons for your customers

The extension adds a new condition to the cart rules - customer birthday.

This condition allows you to create rules and coupons that will be valid on the day, week, two weeks, or month of the customer's birthday.

Using this condition, you can create personalized birthday coupons and rules. Create them to add a gift to the customer cart, or to apply various discounts.

Display the old and the new prices in the cart and the mini-cart

The extension makes it clear to the customer about the discount that she got on her products. The customer sees the old and the new price of the item both in the cart and the mini-cart. She also sees the total discount in the mini-cart, as well as the subtotal including discount.

BOGO

Auto-add a product (or offer discounted products) if the customer adds certain products to the cart.

That is, define the "Buy" and the "Get" products. Then, when customer adds the "Buy" products to his cart, he will get the "Get" product auto-added to his cart, or offered with a discount.

Examples:

• Auto-add a free tie to the cart if the customer buys a suit.
• Buy 2 pants, get a free t-shirt of your choice.
• Buy 3 t-shirts, get a short for $10.
• Female customers - Buy a perfume - get a face cream with $20 discount
• Old customers - Buy 2 apparel items, get sun glasses for $20 only!

Each N

Auto-add each Nth product or offer a discount on each nth product. Create promotions like 1+1, 2+1, 1+2, 2+2 etc.

Using the extension, define the group of products that each nth of them will get discounted or auto-added. That is, when the customer adds some matching products, he gets the Nth product auto-added.

If the Nth product is non-free (discounted) - he gets a message that informs that he can add some products with a discount. The customer than can click the message and select his discounted products.

Examples:

• "2+1 on erasers" - the customer adds 2 erasers to the cart and the third one is getting auto-added
• "Buy one t-shirt, get the next two with 50% discount" - the customer adds one t-shirt to the cart. He gets the message in the cart "Add two t-shirts with 50% discount".
• Buy 2 bags, get 2 with $10 discount
• Buy 3 watches, get the forth one for $10 only!

Display badges and banners in the product pages

The extension allows displaying a badge and/or a banner, in the promoted products. Displaying a catchy badge or a banner is a great way to announce the promotion to the customer.

The Badge

The badge will show up on the top right of the product image. You can select any image of your choice for the badge.

The Banner

The banner will show up under the price in the product page. It can be any image of your choice.

Display different badges and banners in "Buy", "Each $X spent" and "Get" products

The extension allows displaying different banners and badges in the "Buy", "Each $X spent" and the "Get" products. That is, you can display a badge (or a banner) in "Get" products, saying that this product will be discounted if another product (the "buy" product) will be added to the cart.

And you can display a separate badge (or a banner) in "Buy" products saying that the customer will get a free product or a discount with this purchase.

Displaying separate badges and banners for "Buy" and "Get" products is an awesome way to encourage customers to buy more.

Examples:

• In the "Buy a t-shirt, get a pair of shorts" promotion, in shorts product pages, you can display a badge saying "Get this short for FREE on buying a t-shirt"
• In the "Buy a t-shirt, get a pair of shorts" promotion, in t-shirts product pages, you can display a badge saying "Get a FREE short with this purchase!"
• In the "On each $100 spent on jackets, get a free bag" promotion, in jackets product pages, you can display a banner saying "Spend $100 on this and get a free bag!"

Display product badges in category pages and product listings

The extension allows you to display badges in the promoted products everywhere - in category pages and any other product listings. Using product badges, you let the customer see what products are currently promoted and encourage her to purchase them.

Examples

• The current promotion is "1+1 on bags". The bags in the "Bags" category will get the "1+1" badge. Also, the bags in the "Featured Products" listing on the homepage will et the "1+1" badge.
• The current promotion is "Buy a pair of pants, get a t-shirt for free." The customer will see the badge "Get a t-shirt with the purchase" in the pants product pages, "Pants" category pages, and in the pants that are showing up in the "Featured Products" listing on the homepage.

Display cart hints on invalid coupon

Display hint message in cart, once an invalid coupon was applied by the customer. The hint will tell the customer what actions he needs to perform to make his coupon applicable.

Often happens that the customer applies a coupon in his cart, forgetting something small to make it work. The customer than will get the misleading message "The coupon code is not valid." Using the "cart hints on invalid coupon" feature, the customer will get a hint message, guiding him about what items he needs to add to cart, in order to make the coupon work.

Note: This feature currently only works with coupons that have the Free Gift action type (ie: not Magento core action types).

Example:

The promotion "Buy 2 t-shirts, get short for free!" is applicable using the coupon code "buy_2tshirts_get_short". The customer adds one t-shirt to his cart. He than goes and applies the coupon "buy_2tshirts_get_short" in his cart. The coupon is invalid, since there is only one t-shirt in the cart. The Upsell Cart Hint will show up in cart, telling "Add one more t-shirt to cart. Then try applying the coupon again. You should get one short for free!"

Use customer order history in the rule condition

Give your customers discounts according to their purchase history. It is a great feature for acknowledging the loyalty of your customers, and reward them for their activity in your store.

For example, give coupons with discounts to the customers who completed 10 sales this year.

It is also a great way to implement customer retention programs. For example, give coupons to the customers who didn't buy for last half year, but were active a year ago.

You can use order statuses and totals to define the exact conditions on the customer order history.

Examples:

• Customers who have at least 2 paid orders from the last 10 days.
• Customers who have at least 1 shipped order.

Display a popup on first customer visit

Display a popup announcing the customer about an ongoing promotion. This popup will only show up once, on the first customer visit in the website.

You can define a popup image per promotion. The system then will display all the popup images of the active promotions (the ones without coupon codes), one by one, ordered by their priority.

Additional Features

• Skip products that have tier / special / catalog rule price.
• Limit the maximum discount amount per rule.
• Mass delete promotions through the rules grid - the extension adds a delete mass action functionality in the cart rules grid. That is, you can now delete old / redundant promotions and coupons directly through the grid.
