Discount requirement type: Select “Cart must contain certain amount of products”

Minimum quantity: Set it to the minimum quantity of the specific product that must be added to cart for the discount to be applied to the other product, typically 1.
Maximum quantity: Set to 100
Products: Click Add product and select the pre-requisite product(s). This is the product that a guest must have in their cart to make them eligible for the discount.

NOTE: Adding minimum and maximum quantities as detailed below will ensure that the discount code will work if the guest adds to the cart a number of products between the minimum and maximum. If, however, the guest enters a quantity greater than the maximum, then no discount will be taken on ANY of the products in the cart. For example, if the minimum is set to 1 and the maximum is set to 3, the guest will see the discount for each of up to 3 added products. If the guest adds 4 products, however, then no discount will be taken off any of the products. |
