Magento: Increase Customer Loyalty by Adding Free Items to the Shopping Cart

A high customer loyalty is vital to all online store owners as it is not only leading to satisfied customers but also to an increased number of sales. There are several ways to achieve this goal – from running a customer loyalty program to optimized order processing and short delivery times. As customers do love free gifts, it’s pretty straightforward to implement an appropriate Magento extension and add free (promotional) items to the shopping cart.

Check out the following Magento modules (More will be added shortly):
