Version 3.0.3
In the past few months, the free product gifts module for prestashop has seen dramatic improvements, however the drive to improve the module continues and in version 3.0.3 a major new feature has been introduced which greatly increases the flexibility of this module.
New! Free gift packs based on Cart Value
Up until now, gift products were rewarded based on specific products purchased or products from specific categories. Now you can also reward free gifts based on the cart value instead of specific products.
A new option has been added to the new gift pack form which now lets you choose which type of gift pack you wish to create.
What’s more is that this feature can also be combined with other rules. For example, only offer gifts when cart value is over £50.00 and products in the cart are from a specific category or have certain attributes.
And communication to the customer is always important. An animated progress bar is displayed indicating to the customer how much they need to spend to quality for the free gifts as shown below.
