How do I give a free gift with a discount code or link?

You give a gift with a code by turning on Only with a discount code in the gift offer. The gift is then only given when the shopper applies your code. You can also share a link that applies the code for them.

Steps

1. Open Offers, click Create offer, and pick the Gift with a code or link template. Or open an existing gift offer.

2. Click Choose gift products and pick your gift.

3. In the Discount code section, turn on Only with a discount code.

4. Enter your Code, for example GIFT. Spaces are removed and letters become capitals.

5. Add rules under Who gets it if you want. Rules still apply alongside the code.

6. Click Save and go live, or Save for an existing offer.

7. Click Copy link to copy the Shareable link and share it by email, SMS or with influencers.

How shoppers get the gift

• Shareable link: the link looks like https://your-store.myshopify.com/discount/YOURCODE?redirect=/cart. It opens your store with the code applied, and the gift is added to the cart.
• Typing the code: shoppers can enter the code in the cart drawer. To show the code box, turn on Discount code field in the Cart drawer settings.

Notes

• Note: Codes use 3–40 letters, numbers, - or _.
• Note: Each code can be used by only one gift offer. It also can’t match another discount code in your store.
• Note: The code creates a discount in Shopify, named after your offer with “(Zegsu gift)” at the end.
• Note: The cart must contain at least one other product. The gift is not added to an empty cart.
• Note: The gift is free only while the code is applied and your rules are met.
• Note: Gifts need the Zegsu cart drawer turned on.
