Free Product automatically added to cart

[Splash]

Hi,

Is there a way I can automatically include a free product to the customers cart with a 0 value when the customer purchases more than a certain total or products, much like the free shipping option?

I would like to include promotional items to the users cart if they meet the minimum order requirements?

Hi,

Anyone have clue for this? As I'm also would like to give a gift when customer meet the quantity.

In theory it seems to be straighforward, but i'm not convinced it's as easy as it sounds!

You can use the "cart" hook to provide additional processing each time the Cart:add() and Cart::update() functions are called, so in theory you could work out whether the customer cart qualifies for the free item, but I see two potential issues (that likely won't be answered until someone tries it!):

#1 From a brief look at the code I'm not convinced that either of these functions is always called when the actual value of the cart changes. This hook may, in itself, not be sufficiently reliable to make the add/remove free product decision.

#2 The free product would need to be handled in a special way to a) indentify it and prevent people adding it manually. could be handled by having it as a regular product available for purchase at a price if the cart contents don't qualify getting it for free. a) would then simply be a case of providing a method of specifying the free product in the module configuration screen.

Anyone trying it out?

Would be a great module

yo lo que busco es que el perfil de administrador pueda entrar en la ficha y comprar al precio que quiera. Para ello le apareceria un campo de precio donde él introduciria el precio nuevo.
¿es posible?
gracias

@olea

Looks like a great module.

But 160 € ?
A bit expensive for a module to give away free products!

hi guys,

might not be as sophisticated as EUR160 module, but
do we have simplified free solution for this?

really appreciated
