Hi,
We don't have this feature by default in HikaShop, but it is possible via plugins.
You will have to create a plugin to manage these different cases.
It require PHP knowledges, if you don't have these knowledges we recommend to post a request in the commercial jobs section of this forum.
Here is the developer documentation:
www.hikashop.com/support/support/documen...r-documentation.html
ps: We have on our todo list to improve the discount/coupon part to handle gift products, etc.

Hello,
Has anyone created a plugin for this yet? From previous posts it looks like it has been on the todo list for a few years. I'd be surprised if no one has developed a plugin yet. I don't want to reinvent the wheel, so if anyone has any info, I'd love to know.
Thank you,
Miles

Hi,
A plugin, but for what exactly ?
The "buy one get one free" can actually be done by default. Just have several prices for the different quantities in your product for example. Or a coupon with a 50% discount value on that product.
The "meet a certain dollar value and get a gift" can also be done quite easily with a small modification of the "cart" file of the "checkout" view where you would just compare the total value of the cart with the amount you want and then display a message if the cart total is higher. It's two lines of PHP really.
The "buy a specific product and get a specified product" is a bit tricky as it requires:
- to be able to select a product for another product, so some kind of custom field might do the trick
- to be able to have in the cart a product that you already have in your shop (or maybe not ?) and have its price be 0 but only if the specific product is also in the cart.
So that would definitely require a plugin.
The thing is that everyone want some kind of marketing like that but always a bit different. Someone will want a "buy a specific product and get a specified product", someone else will want a "buy a product from a specific specific categoryand get a specified product", someone else a "buy for at least a certain amount and get a specified product", etc.
As there are many many different cases, it's complex to try to have a generic plugin to handle all the different cases.
On the other hand, custom plugins to handle that can be done with a few lines of code so aren't really expensive to make. You can contact our partners if you need someone to work on that for you:

But otherwise, our developer documentation might help:

Hi there, I know this is an old thread so I am hoping there has been some change since it was created. I am looking for a feature which automatically ads a gift (drop down of say, three gift options for the customer to select one to add to their order) if the order exceeds a certain value. Is there any way to do this now? At the moment, I can only create discount codes, but that is not always the best option for a promotion. Thanks!!

Hello,
There are news around this subject, you can now find a new plugin, " Coupon free product " that allow you to add a free product when specific criteria match.
Learn more here in our Marketplace .
Now, but there remains a problem in relation to your request, precisely it is not possible to offer a choice of a product from a selection.
So this answer only partially meets your needs but perhaps it will ultimately be sufficient.
Regards
