    • Choose your discount method: Automatic (applies in-cart) or Discount code (applied at checkout).
    • Give your campaign a name (e.g., Test Bogo).
  1. Define Product X (What Customers Buy)
    • In the "Select Product X" section, choose how to select the qualifying products (e.g., by Collections, specific products, or tags).
    • Select the specific item(s) required for the offer (e.g., "Hydrogen collection").
    • Specify the quantity customers must purchase (e.g., 1 for a "Buy One..." deal).
  1. Define Product Y (What Customers Get)
    • In the "Product Y" section, select the item(s) the customer will receive at a discount (e.g., items from the "Oxygen collection").

2. Optional Settings & Refinements


You can further customize your BOGO offer with these settings:

  • Repeating the Offer: In the "limit" field, you can set how many times the offer can be claimed in a single order. Setting a high number allows the offer to repeat (e.g., Buy 2 Get 2, Buy 3 Get 3, and so on).
  • Discount Application Logic: If multiple eligible "Y" items are in the cart, you can choose to apply the discount to the least expensive or most expensive item.
  • Customer Eligibility: You can add rules to include or exclude customers based on specific criteria, such as customer tags or markets.
  • Widget Customization: Adjust the widget's text, icons, colors, and display settings to match your store's branding.
