Aussie Gardener review for EG Auto Add to Cart Free Gift

Aug. 7, 2023

We had an AOV of $85 excluding shipping and wanted to increase it above $100. Using EG auto add to cart free gift we set up a trigger so that if a customer spends over $120, they receive a free gift valued at $29.50 RRP. As a result we have seen our AOV climbing and pushed past $100! The app has a good analytics page that shows you how it is working to increase your AOV displaying the results for customers who received bonuses compared to those that didnt. This app automatically adds the bonus item to their cart. We found the best way to achieve this was to create a duplicate product and price it at $0. Hiding that product from our store using a special metafield step - Support tells you how to do it. That way we didnt have any need for discount codes or having them clash with other codes that might apply to the same cart. To solve the issue of having 2 products with the same sku with inventory, we labelled one Product Name-GWP and added the -GWP to the SKU as well. Then used 'Bundles app' (from another provider) to create a new bundle which was the Bonus product (free) version, and assign one unit of the real $$ product to the bundle. That way every time the bonus free one was given out, it would deduct inventory from the full priced product version automatically. EG have another app that creates a slide in sidecart and suggested products to add to your order. You can also have the same messaging in the side cart about the gift with purchase. I recommend giving that one a go as they work well together. Support have been excellent to deal with. Hope that helps. :-)
