Below are examples of different scenarios. If a cart contains products with campaigns that cannot be combined, the campaign with the highest priority will be applied. If no priority is set, the system will apply the campaigns in default order, with the most recently created campaign taking effect. Campaigns are applied based on their priority. If a campaign can't be combined with those already applied, it will be skipped.   **Example 1 - Percentage (%) campaigns based on different types of base prices cannot be combined.** - Campaign 1 (Priority 1): 10% off, calculated on discount price. - Campaign 2 (Priority 2): 5% off, calculated on regular price. Since different price fields are used, these campaigns are incompatible and cannot be combined. This also includes when combining a cart-based campaign and  a promo code, if they are based on different types of base prices they cant be combined.     **Example 2 - Cheapest item(s) for free** The "Cheapest item(s) for free" campaign can only be combined with percentage (%), fixed amount campaigns or free shipping. For example, you cannot combine two "Buy 3 for the price of 2" offers.   **Example 3 - Percentage off the cheapest" or "Percentage off the most expensive** "Percentage off the cheapest" or "Percentage off the most expensive" cannot be applied if another campaign is already active, except for Free Shipping or Fixed Amount campaigns.   - [Geins 101](https://support.geins.io/geins-101?hsLang=en) - [Merchant Center 101](https://support.geins.io/merchant-center-101?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Export](https://support.geins.io/merchant-center-101?hsLang=en#export) - [Products](https://support.geins.io/products?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Product editing](https://support.geins.io/products?hsLang=en#product-editing) - [Categories](https://support.geins.io/products?hsLang=en#categories) - [Product parameters](https://support.geins.io/products?hsLang=en#product-parameters) - [Other product functionality](https://support.geins.io/products?hsLang=en#other-product-functionality) - [Campaigns](https://support.geins.io/campaigns?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Create campaigns](https://support.geins.io/campaigns?hsLang=en#create-campaigns) - [Other](https://support.geins.io/campaigns?hsLang=en#other) - [Content](https://support.geins.io/content?hsLang=en#main-content) - [General settings for content management](https://support.geins.io/content?hsLang=en#general-settings-for-content-management) - [Create content](https://support.geins.io/content?hsLang=en#create-content) - [Widgets library](https://support.geins.io/content?hsLang=en#widgets-library) - [Orders](https://support.geins.io/orders?hsLang=en#main-content) - [General](https://support.geins.io/orders?hsLang=en#general) - [Order fullfillment](https://support.geins.io/orders?hsLang=en#order-fullfillment) - [Refunds](https://support.geins.io/orders?hsLang=en#refunds) - [Customers](https://support.geins.io/customers?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Customer management](https://support.geins.io/customers?hsLang=en#customer-management) - [Customer groups](https://support.geins.io/customers?hsLang=en#customer-groups) - [Consents](https://support.geins.io/customers?hsLang=en#consents) - [Import tool](https://support.geins.io/import-tool?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Work with imports](https://support.geins.io/import-tool?hsLang=en#work-with-imports) - [Import templates](https://support.geins.io/import-tool?hsLang=en#import-templates) - [Statistics](https://support.geins.io/statistics?hsLang=en) - [Settings](https://support.geins.io/settings?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Configurations](https://support.geins.io/settings?hsLang=en#configurations) - [Cross-border](https://support.geins.io/cross-border?hsLang=en#main-content) - [General](https://support.geins.io/cross-border?hsLang=en#general) - [Products and pricing](https://support.geins.io/cross-border?hsLang=en#products-and-pricing) - [Texts and content](https://support.geins.io/cross-border?hsLang=en#texts-and-content) - [FAQs](https://support.geins.io/faqs?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Merchant Center](https://support.geins.io/faqs?hsLang=en#merchant-center) - [Product & Categories](https://support.geins.io/faqs?hsLang=en#product-categories) - [Orders & order management](https://support.geins.io/faqs?hsLang=en#orders-order-management) - [Campaigns & discounts](https://support.geins.io/faqs?hsLang=en#campaigns-discounts) - [Content CMS](https://support.geins.io/faqs?hsLang=en#content-cms) - [Customers](https://support.geins.io/faqs?hsLang=en#customers) - [Import Tool](https://support.geins.io/faqs?hsLang=en#import-tool) - [Settings](https://support.geins.io/faqs?hsLang=en#settings) - [Statistics](https://support.geins.io/faqs?hsLang=en#statistics) - [Mails](https://support.geins.io/faqs?hsLang=en#mails) - [Incoming Stock managment](https://support.geins.io/incoming-stock-managment?hsLang=en) [![Geins-white](https://support.geins.io/hubfs/Geins-white.svg "Geins-white")](https://support.geins.io/?hsLang=en) [Visit geins.io](https://www.geins.io/) [Developer documentation](https://docs.geins.io/)
