What Is Free Gifts for WooCommerce?
Free Gifts for WooCommerce is developed by WooCommerce and is an ecommerce plugin for WordPress. The plugin handles the logic of awarding free products based on cart conditions, coupon application, or specific user history. It belongs to the ecommerce category on WPExclusive, alongside other tools for online retailers.
Many stores struggle to move slow inventory or incentivize higher spending without eroding margins through flat discounts. This plugin solves that problem by replacing cash discounts with tangible products, enhancing the customer experience.
Free Gifts for WooCommerce Features
The feature set is built around flexible rule-based automation that allows admins to create specific triggers for gift eligibility.
Automated Gift Triggers
Free Gifts for WooCommerce allows for gifts to be automatically added to the cart when criteria are met. Rules can be configured based on cart subtotal, total quantity, or products from specific categories. You can also trigger gifts via coupon codes, insuring that only targeted marketing campaigns receive the bonus products.
Buy X Get Y (BOGO) Logic
The plugin supports repetitive BOGO logic, such as “Buy 2 Get 1 Free” or “Buy 3 Get 2 Free.” It can handle different product combinations, allowing you to give away the same item purchased or a different item from a secondary category. This is perfect for ecommerce promotional events and flash sales.
Manual Selection and Admin Gifts
Admins can choose to let customers pick their own gift from a pre-defined list in a carousel or table layout. This provides a personalized experience during checkout. Additionally, the store administrator can manually send free gifts to any user directly from the plugin dashboard or during manual order creation.
Advanced Restrictions and Logging
To prevent abuse, the plugin includes restrictions based on user purchase history, specific days of the week, or the presence of other coupons. A master log records every gift added to an order, providing a clear audit trail. This ensures that high-volume stores can monitor promotional performance and inventory impact accurately.

The retail price for this extension on the official marketplace is $79 per year. Check current pricing on the Free Gifts for WooCommerce sales page — WPExclusive members access it as part of their plan.

Use Cases
Boosting Average Order Value

Inventory Liquidation
Clear out seasonal stock by offering slow-moving items as free bonuses for purchases over a certain amount. This helps maintain stock flow without resorting to deep discounts that might cheapen the brand image.
Agencies and Developers Managing Multiple Client Sites
Developers can deploy sophisticated gifting strategies across dozens of client stores using a single WPExclusive membership. This significantly reduces the overhead costs of managing high-conversion ecommerce promotions.
