In addition to setting up the logic, it’s important to clearly communicate the offer to customers. The Free Gifts Bar helps highlight available rewards and motivates customers to unlock them as they build their box.
👉 In this guide, we’ll deep dive into the step‑by‑step configuration of Free Gifts Bar,
💡 If you’d prefer a broader overview and want to explore real use cases, check out our Add Free Gifts to Box guide.
When to Use Free Gifts Bars. #
Use the Free Gifts Bar whenever you want to visually highlight a free gift offer in your box!
Free Gifts Bars can be used for both Auto add to cart and Buyer manually chooses.
You can place them inside the box content or in the Quick Summary — whichever works best for your setup.
How to Set up Free Gifts Bar #
Start by enabling a Free Gift discount. Once enabled, the Free Gifts Bar will automatically appear at the top of your box.
👉 If no Free Gift discount is configured, you will see the message:
“Please create a free gift discount to display this bar.”
You’ll also notice that a Free Gifts Bar element has been added to your Box Content. It behaves like any other element: you can show or hide it, reorder it, move it into a banner, delete it, and more!
📌 Important: Note that the Free Gifts Bar behaves differently depending on your gift mode — Auto add to cart or Buyer manually chooses. We’ll cover each in detail in the next section.
1. Auto add to cart #
For Auto add to cart, free gifts are displayed directly in the bar.
- Customers can see upcoming gifts as they build their box
- Locked and unlocked states are clearly shown
- Once conditions are met, gifts are marked as unlocked
This helps customers understand what they can unlock and encourages them to add more items.
To customize the Free Gifts Bar:
- Go to Theme Settings → Free Gifts Bar
- You can adjust:
- Background color
- Border color
- Message color
If your box template includes a Sidebar summary, you can also display the Bar there:
- Go to Quick Summary
- Enable Free Gifts Bar
2. Buyer manually chooses #
For Buyer manually chooses, the Free Gifts Bar is still displayed, but it works slightly differently.
- The bar shows a message that free gifts are available
- Gifts are not displayed directly in the bar
- Instead, they are listed in the Product List: Gift
Once customers qualify:
- A “Select here” button appears in the Free Gifts Bar
- Clicking this button navigates customers to the Product List where they can choose their gift
