Allow Items to Qualify for Multiple Offers

​

What This Feature Does

This feature controls whether items that have already acted as qualifiers for one offer can also act as qualifiers for other offers.

​

Key Concepts

• Qualifier: Items that trigger/activate a discount (e.g., items that meet the “buy X” requirement)
• Target: Items that receive the discount (e.g., the free gift or discounted item)
• Qualifier Reuse: Allowing the same item to qualify for multiple different offers

​

How It Works

​

When Unchecked (Default)

• The “Allow items to qualify for multiple offers” checkbox is unchecked
• Items that qualified for Offer A cannot qualify for Offer B
• Only the highest priority offer will apply to qualifying items
• Prevents “double qualifying” scenarios

​

When Checked

• The “Allow items to qualify for multiple offers” checkbox is checked
• Items that qualified for Offer A can also qualify for Offer B
• Multiple offers can apply to the same qualifying items

​

Real-World Examples

​

Example 1: Fashion GWP Offers

Scenario: Two Gift With Purchase offers

• Offer A: “Buy any dress, get free jewelry” (Priority 1)
• Offer B: “Buy any dress, get free handbag” (Priority 2)

Customer Action: Buys 1 dress ($50)

​

Example 2: Beauty Product GWP Offers

Scenario: Multiple beauty gift with purchase offers

• Offer A: “Buy any skincare product, get free cleanser”
• Offer B: “Buy any skincare product, get free moisturizer”

Customer Action: Buys 1 skincare product ($30)

​

Scenario: Multiple beauty GWP offers requiring multiple items

• Offer A: “Buy 2 skincare products, get free cleanser”
• Offer B: “Buy 2 skincare products, get free moisturizer”
