Can you offer a free gift with a product in your own branded listing
Hi Everyone.
I am selling a XYZ Product and would like to offer an free product with the item as a bundled item.
for example offering free Bluetooth speaker when purchasing a chair.
is this allowed on amazon?
Thanks

You can create a listing that bundles the two together - however, amazon may not allow the term free gift in the title or description etc.
The correct way to do it is to set up the ‘free’ product as a separate ASIN, and build the promotion using the Manage Promotions tool. You setup to offer the bluetooth speaker ASIN free if the chair is purchased. The customer though must add both products to the basket.

Which is in fact the same advice you were given in January

I think it is a bad idea personally.
Why would someone buy your chair because they got a free Bluetooth speaker unless it can be fitted in the chair?
If the speaker becomes faulty is the customer liable to return it? If so will Amazon then refund them the price of the chair?
Would customers review your product more negatively because the free gift wasn’t as good as they expected but they were happy with the actual product?
As a buyer I wouldn’t buy a chair because of a free gift. I would buy it for durability and comfort.
The chair and the speaker may only be example products that you gave but I would really think through how returns would work and if a customer getting a free gift would really increase your sales.
