This manual describes how to create an egg hunt or other scavenger hunt in Abicart. The guide goes through how to set up campaign pages, place clickable campaign icons in the store and link them to discounts, products or landing pages. The approach is built to be easily reused for future campaigns.
Preparations
Create campaign page
Go to:
Pages → My Pages → Create new page
Create a page describing your campaign, e.g. "Egg hunt - search and find unique discounts".
You can link to this page from the homepage.
The page can contain:
Short campaign text.
What to look for.
Terms and conditions
Validity period
Save & publish.
Image
Create discount code (requires at least the PLUS plan)
Go to:
Discounts → Discounts → New discount
Create:
Discount code of ex 10% (e.g. EGG15)
Free shipping discount code.
Save.
Create landing pages to link to from the eggs
Go to:
Pages → My Pages → Create new page
Create one or more pages describing the offer you can "find" in an Easter egg:
This page can contain:
Here is your discount code for this product (e.g. EGG15)
With this discount code you get free shipping.
With this discount code you get 100 kr discount if you shop for 500 kr.
Don't forget to mention the conditions and validity period of your offer on each page.
Save & Publish.
Alternative: Create campaign category
Go to:
Assortment → Product groups
Create e.g:
"Egg Hunt Deals"
"Treasure Hunt"
Add promotional products to the category. Now you can link to these product groups from your campaign pages.
Upload egg images (or promotional icons)
Go to:
Appearance → File archive
Upload your images.
Name them clearly so you can find them when you insert them into the pages:
– egg-01.png
– egg-gold.png
– easter-hunt-01.png
Tip:
Don't make them too big, about 150-250 px wide
Keep the size down for fast loading
Place the egg images on selected pages
You can place them on:
Home page
Category pages
Product pages
Your own pages
Enter link to promotional page with offer.
Advanced: To position an egg image, you may need to use custom CSS.
Save & Publish
Track which eggs are found
To see how many times an egg has been clicked, add UTM parameters to the links.
Then in GA4 you can see:
Which eggs are found
Which ones convert best
