# Product in Cart

## Overview

The **Product in Cart** condition applies discounts when the cart contains specific products you select. This is perfect for product-specific promotions and bundle incentives.

## Available Operators

* **Contains**: Cart has at least one of the selected products. Other products are allowed.
* **Does not contain**: Cart does NOT have any of the selected products.
* **Contains (all)**: Cart must have ALL selected products (bundle requirement).
* **Contains (strict mode)**: Cart has selected products ONLY. No other products allowed.

## Operator Details

### Contains (Most Common)

**Use when**: You want free shipping if ANY of your selected products are in cart

**Example**: Select Product A, Product B

* Cart with Product A → ✓ Qualifies
* Cart with Product B → ✓ Qualifies
* Cart with Product A + Product C → ✓ Qualifies
* Cart with Product C only → ✗ Doesn't qualify

### Contains (all)

**Use when**: Customer must buy ALL selected products (bundle)

**Example**: Select Product A, Product B

* Cart with Product A + Product B → ✓ Qualifies
* Cart with Product A + Product B + Product C → ✓ Qualifies
* Cart with Product A only → ✗ Doesn't qualify

### Contains (strict mode)

**Use when**: Cart can ONLY have your selected products (nothing else)

**Example**: Select Product A, Product B

* Cart with Product A only → ✓ Qualifies
* Cart with Product B only → ✓ Qualifies
* Cart with Product A + Product B → ✓ Qualifies
* Cart with Product A + Product C → ✗ Doesn't qualify (has Product C)

### Does not contain

**Use when**: Exclude certain products from discount

**Example**: Select Product A

* Cart with Product B → ✓ Qualifies
* Cart with Product A → ✗ Doesn't qualify

## Common Use Cases

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Product Promotion" %}
**Free shipping on winter coats**

* Product in cart **contains** "Winter Coat"
* Discount: Free shipping
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Bundle Deal" %}
**Free shipping when buying both products**

* Product in cart **contains (all)** Product A, Product B
* Discount: Free shipping
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Exclusive Product" %}
**Free shipping on subscription box only**

* Discount: Free shipping
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Exclude Products" %}
**Free shipping except on clearance items**

* Product in cart **does not contain** Clearance items
* Cart total **is at least** $50
* Discount: Free shipping
  {% endtab %}
  {% endtabs %}

## Selecting Products

When you add this condition:

1. Click "Select products"
2. Search for products by name or SKU
3. Select products (can select multiple)
4. Selected products appear as removable chips

{% hint style="info" %}
You can select specific variants or entire products. Selecting a product includes all its variants.
{% endhint %}

## Best Practices

{% hint style="info" %}
Use "Contains" for most promotions - it's the most flexible and customer-friendly option.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Use "Contains (all)" for bundle requirements where customers must buy multiple specific items.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
"Strict mode" is very restrictive. Use sparingly - customers may be frustrated if they can't add other items.
{% endhint %}
