See every featureGratis gives shoppers a free gift when their cart meets your offer: a minimum spend or a number of items from chosen products or collections, optionally only for tagged or logged-in customers. The gift goes into the cart automatically, is free at checkout, and comes back out with a short note if the cart stops qualifying. Checkout refuses a gift the cart hasn't earned, express checkouts included.

Pick real products as gifts and set up to three minimum spends: shoppers get one gift from the highest tier their cart reaches, and can choose between up to three gifts. A small widget shows how close they are. If the cart drops below the amount, checkout asks the shopper to remove the gift.
