A BOGO promotion is one of the fastest ways to move inventory and increase average order value on Shopify. But Shopify’s built-in discount tools only cover the basics: you can set up a simple BOGO automatic discount, but there’s no auto-add to cart, no progress bar, no customer targeting, and no way to track how the campaign actually performs.
That’s where a dedicated BOGO app fills the gap. The right app handles the discount logic, communicates the offer across your storefront, and gives you control over who sees it, when it runs, and how the free or discounted item gets added to the cart.
We installed and tested six of the top-rated BOGO apps on Shopify to help you find the right fit. This article covers what to look for, how each app compares, and which one makes the most sense for your store. If you need a step-by-step walkthrough of setting up a BOGO promotion (with or without an app), start with our “How to Do BOGO on Shopify” guide.
Finding the right BOGO app is harder than it looks. The Shopify App Store returns dozens of results, many with overlapping feature claims and similar ratings. To cut through the noise, we installed each of these six apps on a test store and evaluated them hands-on. We focused on four criteria:
For a full breakdown of how we evaluate and rank Shopify apps, see our “App Testing Methodology“.
Based on these criteria, the three BOGO apps we recommend most highly are:
BOGOS is our product. We include it because BOGO is one of its core promotion types, and we’ve tested it against every app on this list using the same criteria. We also know BOGOS isn’t the best fit for every store. Some apps on this list outperform BOGOS in specific areas, such as promotional visibility widgets (AOV.ai) or budget-friendly BOGO with POS support (BOGO+), and we call that out in the individual reviews. Where we rank BOGOS at the top, it’s because our testing supports that position, not because we built i
Each excels in different areas, which we break down in the individual reviews below.
Not all BOGO apps work the same way. Here are the features that matter most when choosing one.
Here’s a side-by-side comparison of the six apps we tested. Below the table, you’ll find individual reviews with feature breakdowns, pros/cons, and merchant feedback.

👑 Best for: Stores that need the most comprehensive BOGO setup with advanced targeting, alongside GWP, bundles, and upsells in a single app.
BOGOS ranks as the top solution for running BOGO promotions on Shopify. The app supports every major BOGO type: BOGO free, BOGO discount, buy 2 get 1 free, multiplied BOGO, cheapest item free, and BOGO with combined conditions. Merchants can also set up multiple “BOGO same product” promotions across their entire catalog at once using BOGOS’s matching gift with purchased product feature, which automatically pairs the free item with whatever the customer buys.
BOGOS offers the widest range of targeting options among the apps we tested. You can limit offers by collection, product types/vendors/tags, geo-location, order history, sales channels, customer tags, magic links, or subscription products. The app also includes booster widgets (Today’s Offers block, progress bar, offer page, gift thumbnails) and per-campaign analytics for tracking revenue, orders, and AOV impact. POS and headless storefronts are both supported. Beyond BOGO, BOGOS covers GWP, bundles, volume discounts, and upsells from one dashboard.
Key features:
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Widest targeting conditions (geo, tags, order history, sales channel, magic links, subscriptions) | Free plan limited to 30 life time orders |
| Matching gift feature: bulk-create BOGO same-product offers across catalog | High price compared to other BOGO apps |
| Learning curve due to the breadth of features | Learning curve due to breadth of features |
| Booster widgets (offer page, today’s offers, progress bar, gift thumbnails) | |
| POS and headless support |
If you need BOGO as part of a broader promotion strategy that includes GWP, bundles, or upsells, BOGOS is the most complete option.
Merchant reviews:
👑 Best for: Stores that want the strongest promotional visibility widgets and AI-guided campaign setup for BOGO.
AOV.ai is another top app for running BOGO promotions on Shopify and a strong alternative to BOGOS. The app supports multiple BOGO types: BOGO free, BOGO discount, buy 2 get 1 free, and multiplied BOGO through its gift multiplier feature. Like BOGOS, merchants can set up multiple “BOGO same product” promotions across several products at once. Gifts can be auto-added to cart or selected through a popup.
Where AOV.ai truly shines is its booster widgets. The app provides some of the most distinctive promotional display tools available: a promotion card, offer on cart slider, tiered reward box, Deal of the Day widget, floating button, and promotion badges on product images. These address one of the biggest BOGO problems: customers simply not knowing the deal exists. AOV.ai also supports volume discounts and multiple GWP types (cart value-based, tiered gifts). While BOGOS is best for BOGO setup complexity across multiple scenarios, AOV.ai is best for promotional visibility through its booster widgets. Targeting includes customer segments and location, though it’s less granular than BOGOS.
Key features:
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Best booster widgets (promotion card, cart slider, tiered reward box, Deal of the Day) | Free plan capped at $1K/month revenue by app |
| AI recommends the best campaign based on your store data | Targeting less granular than BOGOS (no order history, no geo-location) |
| Gift multiplier and gift limit rules | Some merchants report difficulty downgrading plans |
| Volume discounts and multiple GWP types included | No POS support |
| A/B testing available on paid plans |
Merchant reviews:
👑 Best for: Stores that need flexible BOGO targeting (order history, geo, logged-in customers) at a lower price than BOGOS, with Shopify POS compatibility.
BOGO+ is another top BOGO app that deserves a spot in the top three. Like BOGOS and AOV.ai, the app supports multiple BOGO promotion types: BOGO free, BOGO discount, buy 2 get 1 free, and cheapest/costliest item free. It also includes volume discounts, quantity discounts, and flash sales.
The biggest disadvantage of BOGO+ is limited booster widgets. It offers a progress bar and gift bar, but nothing comparable to the promotional display tools in BOGOS or AOV.ai. However, compared to AOV.ai, BOGO+ supports more options for customer eligibility: order history, logged-in customer targeting, and geo-targeting. AOV.ai only supports default settings like customer tags and segments. BOGO+ also supports POS across all promotion types, which is important for omnichannel stores. If you need an app that provides wider flexibility for setting up BOGO promotions but at a lower price than BOGOS, BOGO+ is the pick.
Key features:
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Wider customer eligibility than AOV.ai (order history, geo, logged-in) | Limited booster widgets compared to BOGOS and AOV.ai |
| Affordable (from $12.49/month) | Lower review count and rating than competitors |
| POS support for all promotions | Occasional stability issues noted by some merchants |
| Easy setup, no coding required | |
| Volume and quantity discounts included |
Choose BOGO+ if you need wider BOGO targeting flexibility at a lower price than BOGOS, especially if POS support matters for your store.
Merchant reviews:
👑 Best for: Stores that want to combine BOGO, volume discounts, and free shipping into a single tiered campaign with a visual progress bar.
Kite is built entirely on Shopify’s native Discount Functions, so BOGO offers apply through Shopify’s own discount engine rather than workarounds. This means promotions interact more predictably with other discounts on your store. The app supports BOGO free, BOGO discount, buy 2 get 1 free, and cheapest/costliest item free.
What makes Kite distinctive is tiered promotion capability. You can combine multiple reward types in one campaign: spend $50 for a free gift, spend $80 for 10% off, spend $120 for free shipping. A progress bar tracks customer progress through tiers. The app also supports combined discounts under a single discount code, useful for BFCM events. Kite doesn’t cover bundles or upsells, so if you need those, you’ll need a separate app.
Key features:
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Built on Shopify Discount Functions (native stacking behavior) | No bundle or upsell features |
| Tiered campaigns combining free gift + discount + free shipping | Widget customization could be deeper |
| Goal-based progress bar on product and cart pages | No geo-location or order history targeting |
| Affordable (from $9.99/month) | Free plan limited to Basic/Grow Shopify plans |
| Replaces Shopify Script Editor for custom discount logic |
Choose Kite if you want a discount-first tool that combines BOGO with tiered discounts and free shipping in one clean progress bar.
Merchant reviews:
👑 Best for: Stores on Shopify Plus (or growing toward it) that want BOGO, GWP, and upsells at every touchpoint from product page to post-checkout.
Monk is a unified upsell and gift app where BOGO is one piece of a larger buying-journey toolkit. It supports BOGO free, BOGO discount, and gift with purchase triggered by products, quantities, or cart values. Gifts can be auto-added or selected through a popup.
The standout feature is Monk’s eligibility engine with layered rules, including a discount code trigger most BOGO apps lack. You can create promotions where customers enter a specific code to unlock the free item, ideal for influencer campaigns or loyalty rewards. For Shopify Plus merchants, Monk extends into checkout upsells and post-checkout one-click upsells. The trade-off: no permanent free plan, and paid plans start at $30/month.
Key features:
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Full buying journey coverage (product page to post-checkout) | No permanent free plan |
| Discount code trigger for BOGO (influencer/loyalty campaigns) | Starting price higher than most competitors ($30/month) |
| Strong eligibility engine with layered conditions | Checkout upsells require Shopify Plus |
| Customizable widget design with translation support | No bundle features |
| Compatible with Shopify Markets and multi-currency |
Choose Monk if your BOGO strategy is part of a broader upsell approach that spans the entire buying journey, especially if you’re on Shopify Plus.
Merchant reviews:
👑 Best for: Stores where product bundles are the primary strategy, with BOGO as a supporting offer type.
Fast Bundle is primarily a bundling app and one of the strongest on Shopify for that purpose. BOGO is part of the feature set but not the primary focus. The app offers BOGO free and BOGO discount configurations through a product page widget that embeds directly on existing pages. Bundles are created as standalone Shopify products, which benefits SEO.
Where Fast Bundle falls short for BOGO: no advanced customer targeting, no progress bar, and no auto-add in the traditional sense. The app treats BOGO as a variant of its bundling engine, which works when BOGO is tied to a product bundle but feels limited for standalone campaigns like “buy any shirt, get one free store-wide.” The widget customization, however, is polished and feels native to your theme.
Key features:
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Widest range of bundle types on Shopify | BOGO is not the primary focus; less flexible for standalone BOGO |
| SEO-friendly (BOGO offers as standalone products) | No advanced targeting for BOGO offers |
| Polished widget design, feels native to themes | No progress bar or booster display widgets |
| Inventory sync, multi-currency, POS support | No auto-add to cart for BOGO gifts |
| 5.0 rating with 2,400+ reviews |
Choose Fast Bundle if bundles are your core strategy and you occasionally need BOGO offers as part of that framework.
Merchant Reviews:
With six apps tested, here’s how to decide based on what your store actually needs:
The right BOGO app depends on what else your store needs beyond the promotion itself. If BOGO is one piece of a larger promotion strategy, an all-in-one tool like BOGOS saves you from managing multiple apps. If you need a focused BOGO tool with native discount handling, Kite delivers that at a lower price. And if your BOGO campaigns need to reach specific customer segments, advanced targeting (available in BOGOS, Monk, and AOV.ai) is the feature that matters most.
Start with the free plan of your top pick, run a single BOGO campaign for 2-4 weeks, and track three metrics: AOV before vs. after, BOGO redemption rate, and margin per order. If the numbers work, scale up. If not, the comparison table above makes switching straightforward.
Yes. Shopify’s built-in automatic discount system supports a basic BOGO setup through its “Buy X Get Y” discount type. You can create an automatic discount that gives customers a free or discounted product when they buy a qualifying item. The main limitations: no auto-add to cart (customers must add the gift manually), no progress bar or display widgets, no customer targeting beyond basic conditions, and no campaign analytics. For a walkthrough, see our [How to Do BOGO on Shopify] guide.
Yes, but it depends on the app. All six apps support collection-based and product-based triggers. For customer-level targeting, BOGOS offers the most granular options (customer tags, order history, geo-location, sales channel). AOV.ai and Monk support customer segments. Kite supports customer tags and market rules. BOGO+ supports order history and customer tags. Fast Bundle has no customer-level targeting for BOGO offers.
Not all of them. From this list, BOGOS, BOGO+, and Fast Bundle support Shopify POS. The others (AOV.ai, Kite, Monk) are online-only. If you sell in-person, check POS compatibility before committing to an app. Shopify’s native automatic discounts also work with POS.
It depends on both the app and Shopify’s discount rules. Shopify allows up to 25 active automatic discounts simultaneously, but only one product discount applies per line item. If your BOGO uses an automatic discount and a customer also enters a discount code that targets the same product, Shopify applies the larger discount and ignores the other. Some apps (like Kite, which uses Shopify Functions) handle stacking more cleanly than apps using workarounds. Test the interaction between your BOGO and any other active discounts before going live.
Several apps on this list support this BOGO variant directly. BOGOS, AOV.ai, BOGO+, and Kite all let you configure a “buy 2 get 1 free” rule by setting the qualifying quantity to 2 and the reward to 1 free item. You select the qualifying products or collections, set the discount to 100% on the reward item, and the app handles the rest. For a full setup walkthrough using different methods, see “How to do Buy 2 Get 1 Free on Shopify“.
