Before you begin
Gift Engine is built for Shopify stores using a modern Online Store 2.0 theme. You need access to install the app, edit themes, and manage products and discounts in your store.
- 1
Install and choose your plan
Install Gift Engine from the Shopify App Store. Start with Free or review the 14-day Pro trial in Shopify.
- 2
Choose the condition and gift
For a simple first offer, set a cart-value threshold and select an in-stock gift. For example, spend $60 and receive Lip Barrier Balm. Use a different gift product from any qualifying product.
- 3
Connect your storefront
Open the theme connection link, enable Gift Engine under App embeds, and save. Return to the app and check the connection status.
- 4
Activate and check your gift
Activate the campaign. In a fresh test cart, add qualifying products and confirm one free gift appears. Remove a qualifying item and confirm the gift disappears. Check the gift remains free at checkout before promoting your offer.
Important operating notes
- Use one distinct gift variant per campaign where possible.
- Review stock availability before activating a campaign.
- Test discount combinations with other installed apps and Shopify settings.
- Keep customer-facing offer terms clear in your own store.
