Return to Introduction  Previous page  Next page

Promotion Tools module allows you to define the following condition types:

1. Customer buys a certain quantity of a product. Offer bonus applies when a customer adds a certain quantity of a specified product or products from a specified category into his cart. The offer can be applied to all products. You can specify the product, quantity and the category in the condition options (Figure 6).

2. Order total exceeds a certain amount. The shopping cart subtotal is calculated at non-discounted prices and compared to the specified amount. If the subtotal is greater than or equal to the amount declared in the special offer a bonus is granted to the customer. This condition has only one option – minimum order total amount required to meet the condition (Figure 7).

Note:minimum order total must be greater than zero.

3. Customer buys a specified set of products. To qualify for a bonus a customer must place a specified set of items into his shopping cart. If a customer adds more than one set of products to his shopping cart, the bonus still applies only once. To configure this condition, click on the 'Select product…' button, choose a product that should belong to the set, and click on the 'Update' button at the bottom of the options page, then you will be able to add more products to the set or delete products from the set (Figure 8). Every time you modify the set, click on 'Update' to save the changes.

4. Customer earns a certain number of bonus points. Customers can earn bonus points when they purchase products or receive the points some other way. Store admin can view and change customers' bonus points manually by accessing their profiles. Customers can review the number of bonus points they have in their profile ('Modify profile' menu). A customer must earn a certain number of bonus points to become eligible to a bonus. When a customer uses his bonus points to purchase items from the store, the number of points specified in condition options is subtracted from his account.

5. Every Nth product purchased. The difference with condition 1 here is that this condition can be applied to one order more than once, depending on how many products the customer buys. The only bonus type that can be used with this condition is a 'specially-priced/free product' (see below: bonus type 2).
