Bundle promotions

Bundle promotions are used in order to increase sales of in low demand with those which are most frequently purchased. With the use of “bundles” a user can define a promotion in which, for example, a purchaser, upon purchasing an item from specific group, receives a freebie. Combining bundle promotions with header discounts allows for maximum increase of sales of the whole assortment.

It is possible to define two types of bundle promotions:

  • fixed bundle
  • flexible bundle

On their basis it possible to define promotions such as:

  • a customer receives a freebee when purchasing any item/items from the list
  • a customer is granted discount on particular items when purchasing specific quantity of items
  • a customer is granted discount on particular items when purchasing items of specific value
  • a customer is granted both discount on particular items and receives a freebee upon satisfying specific promotion conditions
Note
If a bundle promotion is defined for whole item groups, their list is limited to those

groups only, which belong to a classification category with selected parameter Assign items multiple times

to item groups.
