Add a Promotion
A Campaign is a container for individual promotions that are grouped logically based on an event or marketing campaign. Promotion uses a rules engine that responds at scale to requests for offers stored in the engine. When conditions are sent via a request match, action-related information (i.e. item price offers, item summed up value, and display messages) is returned to cart or product pages.
To add a promotion offer , navigate to All Campaigns page > Campaign Information > Add Promotion.
