A Buy X get Y discount gives free units of a product when the customer buys a set quantity. For example: buy 10 licences, get 1 free.

How it works

  • Customer buys: a target (a Product or a Product Category) and a Quantity (X).
  • Customer gets: a Quantity (Y) of The same product At a discounted value of Free.
The reward repeats for each full set of X units on a quote line. With “buy 10, get 1”: The free units are added as a reward line under the purchased line, marked Free (promo) and Excluded from totals. On the quote, the discount shows as Buy X get Y in the discount list.
When the target is a Product Category, the rule is evaluated line by line: each product of the category earns free units of that same product.
