How Do I Add a Free Gift on Shopify?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 2:16 pm

Adding a free gift to your Shopify store is a great way to increase customer satisfaction and loyalty. There are a few different ways to add a free gift, so you can choose the method that best fits your needs.

To add a free gift to your store, you first need to create a product in your Shopify admin. This product will be the free gift that you offer to your customers.

To do this, go to Products > Add product in your Shopify admin. Enter the details for your product, including the name, description, price, and images. Be sure to set the inventory quantity to 1 so that it can’t be sold separately from the rest of your products.

Once you’ve created your free gift product, you need to add it to a collection so that it can be displayed on your store. To do this, go to Products > Collections in your Shopify admin and click the Add collection button. Give your collection a name and description, then click the Save button.

Next, you need to add your free gift product to the collection. To do this, go to the Collections page in your Shopify admin and click on the name of the collection that you want to add the product to.

PRO TIP: If you are considering adding a free gift to your Shopify store, be aware that there are some risks involved. Free gifts can attract negative attention from people who feel that they are being tricked or misled, and this can damage your reputation and cause you to lose customers. Additionally, free gifts can encourage people to buy more than they need or want, which can lead to over-consumption and waste. Proceed with caution and be sure to weigh the pros and cons before adding a free gift to your Shopify store.

Then, click on the Add products button and select the free gift product from the list of products. Click on the Save button to save your changes.

Now that you’ve added your free gift product to a collection, you need to create a discount code so that customers can get their free gift. To do this, go to Discounts > Create Discount in your Shopify admin.

Enter a name for your discount code and specify how much it should discount the order total by. For example, if you’re offering a free $10 gift card, you would enter 10 in the Discount value field. Be sure to set the Uses per customer limit to 1 so that each customer can only use the discount code once.

Once you’ve created your discount code, you need to add it to your checkout so that customers can enter it at checkout and receive their free gift. To do this, go to Settings > Checkout in your Shopify admin and scroll down to the Order processing section.

Under Gift cards and discounts, select Automatically give all customers who enter a valid discount code at checkout a specific discount from the Discount type drop-down menu. Then, select the name of the discount code that you created from the Discount codes drop-down menu. Finally, click on Save changes at the bottom of the page.

Your customers can now receive their free gift by entering their discount code at checkout!
