🎁Auto-Add Gift Pro
AutoAddGift Pro lets Shopify Plus brands automatically add free gifts, upsells, or upgrade products at checkout based on predefined rules. These rules run directly at checkout and ensure gifts are only added when your conditions are met.
This feature is ideal for:
Free gift with purchase campaigns
Checkout upsells
Product upgrades or downgrades
Birthday surprise gifts
How AutoAddGift Pro Works
AutoAddGift Pro automatically adds (or removes) a gift product at checkout based on triggers and conditions you configure in the app.
Supported Triggers
There are three ways a gift can be triggered:
1. Discount Code Trigger
A gift is added only when a specific discount code is applied
The discount code is validated against your configured conditions
If conditions are not met, the discount code is rejected
If conditions are met, the gift product is added automatically
Use this when you want a gift tied strictly to a promotion code.
2. Automatic Condition-Based Trigger
No discount code required
When cart conditions are met, the gift is added automatically
Conditions can include:
Product collections
Subtotal thresholds
Quantity rules
Custom combinations of conditions
This is ideal for “Free gift on orders above ₹X” type campaigns.
3. Customer Birthday Trigger
Uses a customer metafield containing the customer’s birthday
If the checkout date matches the customer’s birthday:
A gift is automatically added
Conditions you configure still apply (order value, products, etc.)
Perfect for loyalty and retention programs.
Example: Free Gift on Hydrogen Collection Orders
Let’s walk through a simple example.
Goal
Add a free gift only if:
Products are from the Hydrogen collection
Subtotal of Hydrogen products is greater than ₹10,000
Step 1: Configure the Gift Rule
Select the gift product you want to add
Set conditions:
Collection = Hydrogen
Subtotal (of Hydrogen items) > ₹10,000
Configure messaging:
Checkout banner title → shown at checkout
Checkout banner description → shown at checkout
Gift message → shown on the gift line item
Set an internal title (for admin reference only)
Once saved, this rule defines when the gift should appear.
Step 2: Enable the AutoAddGift Pro Checkout Block
This step is mandatory.
Go to Online Store → Themes
Click Edit theme
Navigate to Checkout and customer accounts
Add and enable the AutoAddGift Pro block
This block handles:
Adding the gift
Validating conditions
Displaying checkout messaging
If the block is not enabled, the gift will not be added.
Step 3: Test the Setup
Add eligible Hydrogen products to cart
Go to checkout:
If subtotal is below ₹10,000, no gift is added
If subtotal is above ₹10,000, the gift is added automatically
A checkout banner confirms: “A free gift has been added to your order.”
Auto-Remove Gift When Conditions Change
AutoAddGift Pro can also remove gifts automatically.
How it works:
If a customer removes items
And the cart no longer meets the conditions
The gift product is automatically removed from the cart
This behavior is controlled by the setting: “Auto remove gift when conditions are no longer met”
This ensures gifts are never abused or left behind incorrectly.
Switching Between Triggers
At any time, you can change the trigger type to:
Discount code–based
Automatic condition–based
Customer birthday–based
The same gift and conditions framework applies across all triggers.
What’s Coming Next
Upcoming enhancements include:
Manual gift selection
Instead of auto-adding a gift
Customers choose from a curated list of gift products at checkout
More flexibility for advanced checkout strategies
