BOGO type coupons

I have a request I cannot seem to find in any ecommerce solution so far.

I would like to have a shop where, when the user buys any one item, they get a second item (any item in the shop of equal or lesser value) for free.

Is there any way to do this?

Here is an answer we made to the same question a year ago and it still applies:

Thanks for replying.

That is definitely not the SAME question; it is similar but markedly different. Most notable in that none of the proposed solutions would in any way work for what I aim to do, aside from manually granting coupons for the value of purchased goods and forcing them to make a second order; which is still not what I am aiming for (as I want a second item of any sort to be free - but it might not be for the full value of the first item; whereas a manually issued coupon always would be for that same value).

Apparently, I must look for another storefront.

Thanks again for taking the time to reply; that is more than I have had from some other forums.

Indeed, in that case if you want that the user can select himself another product in the store, it will require a product quantity price calculation override plugin to change the price of the second product to 0 once in the cart. We have some documentation on that here:

Hello,

Another option would be to use a 3rd party coupon extesnion:

And here is how to set up the buy x get y coupons:
