Configure a Sample product

• Free Sample

Log in to the Admin Panel and navigate to Catalog → Products. Select the product you want to edit and click Edit. Scroll down to the Sample Product section and choose Free Sample from the Sample Type dropdown.

1. When the fields are empty

If all fields are left blank, the system will use the default configuration values.
On the frontend product page:

• The default quantity of 3 is applied, allowing the item to be added to the cart.
• The label Free Sample is displayed (e.g., for product 24‑WB07).

2. When the fields have values set

If any fields in the Sample Product section contain values, those product‑level values override the defaults and are used on the frontend.

• Sample with Cost Associated

Log in to the Admin Panel and go to Catalog → Products. Open the product you want to update by clicking Edit. Scroll down to the Sample Product section.

From the Sample Type dropdown, select Sample with Cost Associated.

• If you leave all fields empty, the system will automatically use the default price, title, and quantity from the configuration settings.

• If you enter values in these fields, the system will use the product‑level values set in the Sample Products section instead.

Sample Products are not Eligible for Coupon Discounts

• Coupon Code Validation for Free Sample Product

Log in to the Admin Panel and go to Marketing → Cart Price Rules. Create a new coupon code, for example “testcode”. When you apply this coupon on the frontend for the sample products, it should display a validation error, even if the code itself is valid, because coupon codes are not meant to work for sample products

• Coupon Code Validation for Sample with Cost Associated product

We’ve created a coupon code called “testcode” in the Admin Panel. This code works normally for regular products, but it won’t apply to the Sample product (e.g. 24‑WB07). When a customer tries to use the coupon code for the sample products, the system will show a validation message saying the code isn’t valid.
