Mix and Match type 1 deals are for relatively straight forward discount deals:

  • multiple purchase of the same product.
  • multi-product deals where the product is included in only one deal at a time.

Deals can be enabled, restricted to specific days of the week, or restricted to specific  hours i.e. lunch time or happy hour.

As products are added to a sale, a counter tracks the number purchased and triggers the discount. 

Refer to the 7 examples below.
