You can choose how many gifts a cart gets with Gifting for Orders. Each gift is charged at the price of the gift variant the customer chooses, so the rule you pick sets what customers pay for gifting when the cart holds more than one item.

The row shows the rule in use, such as Each cart gets one gift. A new gift product starts on 1 per cart.

When you choose a rule, the Pricing rules settings show a sample cart beside a short explanation. The sketch shows how many gifts that cart adds with the rule, so you can compare rules before you press Save.

The sample cart holds 3 line items: 2 shirts, 1 more of the same shirt with a personalization, and 2 mugs. That is 5 items and 2 variants.

Each item in the cart gets its own gift. The gift quantity matches the item quantity, so a line item with a quantity of 2 adds 2 gifts. The sample cart adds 5 gifts.

Each line item gets one gift, whatever its quantity. The sample cart adds 3 gifts. The same variant can sit on 2 line items when the lines carry different details, such as a personalization, and then each line gets a gift.

Each variant in the cart gets one gift. Line items with the same variant share one gift, so the 2 shirt lines add 1 gift between them. The sample cart adds 2 gifts.

Each cart gets one gift. The number of items does not change the count. The sample cart adds 1 gift.

Customers set the gift quantity in the cart. The gift is added at a quantity of 1, and customers change it with the quantity control on the gift’s line in the cart.

Choose 1 box per item limit or 1 box per weight limit when one gift is a box that holds only so much. Items share boxes, up to each box’s limit. Instead of the sketch, the Pricing rules settings show your gift variants, each with its own limit field: items for 1 box per item limit, and a weight with a unit for 1 box per weight limit. With more than 3 gift variants, a Filter gift variants field shows above the list.

To learn how the number of boxes is worked out, see Charge for gift boxes by item count or weight.

Under each explanation, the Pricing rules settings read Excluded items are not counted. Excluded items are products that your gift block visibility rules hide gift options on. No rule counts them, and no rule counts the gift product itself. To set which products show gift options, see Choose which products show gift blocks.

With Bundle with items turned on, the gift shows as one bundled line in the cart. The rule still sets how many gifts that line holds.

Gifting for Products has no rule to choose. The Pricing rules row reads Matches the parent item quantity: a customer who buys 2 of a product with a gift gets 2 gifts.
