How does an Offer Work?

When a customer adds a product to their cart, any associated discount is automatically applied to that product.

For example, if the product has a 15% discount, it is automatically added to the cart.

However, if there are multiple discounts available to the customer, they will have the option to choose which discount they want to apply to their order.
