Problem statement

The white-label application lacks a corresponding flow to purchase additional ketchup, similar to the existing implementation in the AirTouch application.

The current process in AirTouch allows users to acquire extra ketchup beyond the free quantity specified in the Sanity configuration for each product. Users are required to pay for this additional ketchup if desired.

Furthermore, at the moment of adding the first product with ketchup to the cart, the application shows a screen that informs users about the "King Planet" initiative.

Following, the screenshots showing how it works on the Airtouch application:

Acceptance criteria

Sanity

• The configuration of the link between products and the quantity of ketchup should be accurately set up and managed within the Sanity CRM system.

• Don´t have limitation of quantity of ketchup.

• Users should have the option to acquire extra ketchups beyond the free quantity specified in the Sanity configuration for each product.

• The Ketchup configuration should include necessary details such as name, price, and availability.

• Any changes or updates to the ketchup product should be done by the Sanity application.

White-label

King planet

• The white-label application's functionality for purchasing additional ketchups and displaying the "King Planet" initiative screen should include a feature toggle.

• The feature toggle should allow enabling or disabling the functionality at runtime without requiring code changes or deployments.

• Disabling the feature toggle should disable the additional ketchup purchase flow and hide the "King Planet" initiative screen, ensuring they are not accessible to users.

• Enabling the feature toggle should make the additional ketchup purchase flow and "King Planet" initiative screen accessible and visible to users.

• The white-label application should introduce a flow that enables users to purchase additional ketchup, resembling the existing implementation in the AirTouch application.

• The white-label application should incorporate a screen that informs users about the "King Planet" initiative the moment they add the first product with ketchup to their cart.

• The "King Planet" initiative screen should provide a clear and concise description as described on the figma design.

• The inclusion of the "King Planet" initiative screen should not disrupt the overall flow of adding products to the cart and completing the checkout process.

• The white-label appear only in the first access in each order when the order already have some product with free ketchup available.

• The white-label allows to add 1 free ketchup in the order.

Purchase flow

• On the cart screen of the white-label application, a dedicated section should be available to display the ketchup and its corresponding cost.

• Within this section, users should have the option to add the ketchup to their cart for purchase.

• The cart screen should provide a clear overview of the total cost of the ketchup added, taking into account the quantity and individual prices.

• Once the user has finished adding ketchups to the cart, the flow to complete the order should follow the same process as the current implementation.

• Users should be able to edit the quantity of the ketchup they wish to buy, and the cost should update accordingly to reflect the changes.

• Users should have the option to acquire extra ketchup beyond the free quantity for each product specified in the Sanity configuration.

• The white-label application should accurately reflect the product configurations in Sanity, including the number of free ketchups and any associated pricing for additional ketchups.

• The purchasing flow for additional ketchups should be integrated with existent purchase flow.

• The white-label application should calculate and display the cost of additional ketchups when users choose to purchase them.

• Users should be prompted to pay for the additional ketchups during the checkout process, ensuring a smooth and transparent transaction.

• The additional ketchup purchase flow and the "King Planet" initiative screen should to ensure proper responsiveness and usability.

• Documentation should be provided, detailing the implementation and configuration of the additional ketchup purchase flow and the "King Planet" initiative screen in the white-label application.

• In the cart there is an automatic rule to move the paid ketchup to the free ketchup when the customer adds more items with free ketchup available

• When the customer removes products that reduce their amount of free ketchup, then in the cart there is an automatic rule to remove paid ketchups and free ketchups greater than the amount available. This rule is only applied when the customer has more than the free ketchup available at the time.

• There is no quantity limitation to add any quantity of the same product to the cart.

Solution

The main idea of the solution was to reuse the existing /wiki/spaces/FE/pages/3497590902 feature and make something not tied only to the Ketchup idea. Our solution will able to the client offer any item to the user.

We also use the Addon Extras feature in the Bag With Handles solution. The Addon extras feature will solve for us the following:

• A modal that will hold all the extras items

• The edit of the extra item

• The re-order behavior (not letting the client open a re-order with an extra added directly)

• All the flow for the order, receipt, and so on, is already done

Requirements to work

We need to turn ON the following feature flags:

• Launchdarkly: intl-guest-app

  • enable-add-on-as-cart-item

  • enable-free-addon-on-cart

  • optional: enable-add-extras (if we want to show the “+ Add extras” button in the “Your Cart” section)

For this solution to work, we need to ensure that Sanity is properly configured:

• The creation of the desired Add On Section

The sections here can be created and saved to be used later because they need to be added to the feature menu.

• Add the Add On Sections that we want to show in the cart into Feature Menu

The order of the list defines the order that the sections will be shown on the cart checkout page.

• Configure the Add On Section correctly to have the behavior to deal with free items:

  • “Show as a separate section on cart” (ON)

  • “Make options in this section as free add-ons” (ON)

  • “Service Modes”

    • Here we’ll choose the desirable service modes that we want to offer the promotion

  • 

    Configure the options (addons) for this Add On Section

    • Add the paid item (“Option”)

    • Add the free item (“Free Option”)

      • Important: the free item needs a PLU with zero price to have the correct behavior

      • In the “Vendor Configs”

        • “PLU Type” = “Constantplu”

        • “Constant PLU” field = “zero PLU”

        • Obs: for development, we can use the “PLU Type” as ignore, and the product will have zero as the value

        

    • Configure the “Menu options that Offer the Free Options Above”

      • Here we’ll configure the item that will receive the offer and the maximum free items quantity

  • 

    Configure the “Free Add On Modal” fieldset if wants to show the promotional modal when the user enters the checkout page

    • The fieldset “Free Add On Modal” will be available for all options in the “Add On Section” and with that, we’ll have one modal for each free item (option)

      • “Show Free Add-On Modal at Checkout” → if ON we’ll have this modal shown in the cart

        • This toggle is very useful. If you don’t want an specific modal to be shown, just turn the toggle OFF

      • The image and description are optional. Title and CTA are required if the toggle is ON.

        • If none image is selected the modal will show as a fallback the free item image

        • If some image is selected this image will be shown

      Image Modified

• To avoid quantity limits for the added items in the cart we need to configure the following on Sanity:

  

In the example above the user can select only 20 items (individually) in the cart.

This limit will also affect the addons items. Even if we offer 30 free items the user cannot select more than 20 items (in this example).

Front-end behaviors and Business rules

After all the requirements are configured, we’ll have the following things on the FE UI:

Promotional modal when entering the checkout the first time/journey/order

• Basic Rules

  • Show the modal only for the first time (and always if we have a “new cart”, eg: cleaning the cart and adding the products again)

  • If the user hits F5 the modals already saw will not be shown on the screen, only the new ones

  • If we have only one modal ON we’ll not show the modal in the carousel format/approach

  • For more details of carousel buttons behavior: https://rbictg.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IBC/pages/4169040346/Whitelabel+Add+free+extras+modal+on+checkout+page+cart#Task-2%3A-Add-carousel-logic-in-modal-content

  • The modal will show content for every section that has a matching item (the configured option inside the Add On Section) with an offer on the cart

  Requirements for the modal to be shown

  Image Removed

  • The toggle “Show Free Add-On Modal at Checkout” in “Free Add On Modal” fieldset should be ON

  • This toggle is very useful. If you don’t want an specific modal to be shown, just turn the toggle OFF

  • The fieldset “Free Add On Modal” will be available for all options in the “Add On Section” and with that, we’ll have one modal for each free item (option)

  • Some fields are required: Title and CTA

  • Description and image fields are optional

  • If none image is selected the modal will show as a fallback the free item image

  If some image is selected this image will be shown

Checkout sections

In this example, I have the “Add Ketchup” and “Add Sauces” sections. Some rules for this part of the screen

• If the user did not add the free items through the promotional modal he’ll see the free offers on the screen

• If click on the free item:

  • Is the maximum of free items selected in the cart?

    • Yes - show the paid item in the section

    • No - hide the section from the screen if the section doens’t have other items to offer

      Gravação de Tela 2023-07-21 às 19.27.34.mov

• We’ll only show the section if at least one item from the section has an offer

• We’ll show only items that have an offer in the section (individually)

Your Cart behavior with free/paid items

• The free item will have a description about the maximum of the free items available with the items combined in the cart:

  • Quantity of the item that offers the free item X sanity free quantity → In this example “The Sandwich” offers 1 free item, so: 1 x 1 = the maximum for Ketchup free is 1

• The free item will have 0.00 for the price (will not use any label here because we want to ensure the same consistency between receipt and front-end)

• Automatic “balance” of the cart content based on the following rules:

  • The user cannot pay for an item if he has free items available to select

  • The user cannot buy additional free items (besides what's been offered)

  • The app will remove/add free and paid as needed to balance the original quantity on the cart

• Remove free and paid items from the cart if the main item (that holds the offer) is removed

Extras modal to edit addons

• The user will edit the quantity for the addons by clicking on the “Edit” button that will open the “Add extras” modal

• The modal will also respect the rules for maximum free items → In this example the user can select a maximum of 1 Free item and he’ll be able to select the paid item if want more add-ons

• The paid item will only be offered if the free is on maximum during the edition in this modal

• The edition in this modal doens’t changes the cart in the background. The edition will be made only after clicking on the “Update Order” button

Troubleshoot

• Section with free items is not in the checkout?

  • All the flags and toggles should be ON as showed in the Requirements section

  • Sanity needs to be configured properly and the right item (that is offering the free ones) needs to be in the cart

  • If some item used as a free/paid addon in the Add On Section options has an invalid configuration the entire section will be invalid (for example an invalid PLU, or invalid item config, which will be checked on POS)
