The Preview section shows how the banner will look to customers.

Frequently asked questions
Can I turn the offer off?
Yes. Simply switch off the Free Gift toggle on the top. The banner will disappear and no gifts will be added.
How does the free gift work for customers?
When a customer’s cart total is higher than your set threshold, the selected gift product is automatically added to their cart for free.
What happens if the customer removes items and goes below the threshold?
If the order total drops below the threshold, the free gift offer will be removed. Any gift products already in the cart will remain, but at their regular price.
Will the gift show automatically in the customer's cart?
Yes. The gift will appear automatically in the cart and checkout as a free item.
