  2. INTRODUCTION Magento is a robust e-commerce platform that comes with a plethora of functionalities to help the shop run online in the most efficient way. Just one of these features is the way "Zero Subtotal Checkout" works. This aspect seems to be ideal for the realization of scenarios in which the item or service given by the customer is such that he or she is not charged any payment, e.g. for promotional products, giveaways, or samples. Here, we write a set of instructions that will show what the Zero-Subtotal Checkout is, and then we also include its implementation in an online store. Moreover, we show the ways one can correct the functionality of the config.pbv module to that of this updated setting.

  3. HOW DOES MAGENTO ZERO SUBTOTAL CHECKOUT WORK? When a customer's total is zero, they can complete the checkout process using Magento Checkout, an off-the-shelf payment method in Magento. This is a great tool for marketing sites where outstanding products are featured for free or in case the costs of these products are diminished by coupons or discounts produced by the buyer. The Zero-Subtotal Checkout method makes the payment process more efficient for these orders and offers a hassle-free process for customers. Here is the improved output content that observes all the mentioned criteria and content goals

  4. ZERO SUBTOTAL CHECKOUT USE CASES 1. Promotional Giveaways Most e-commerce stores run promotions in which buyers can get products for free. As an example, a store could provide a "Buy One, Get One Free" deal, where the extra product costs zero. This checkout enables customers to complete the transaction without entering payment information; thus, it is quick and easy for them to redeem their promotional items. 2. Samples and Trials If you offer samples or trials to your clients, this checkout is a good way to do this. Persons can pick up their samples and then proceed to checkout without any need for payment, which in turn simplifies the process and thus attracts more people to your product. 3. Loyalty Programs Zero Subtotal could be a great fit for stores with loyalty programs rewarding their customers with free products or services that wish to boost the redemption process. Thus, the customers who have a reward they would like to claim can put it in the cart. themselves and then the checkout will cancel the zero subtotal on its own. In this case, they can carry out the transaction quickly.

  5. HOW TO CONFIGURE ZERO-SUBTOTAL CHECKOUT IN MAGENTO It is a very straightforward process to configure Zero Subtotal in Magento. Here are the steps to complete the configuration and enable this functionality: STEP 1: ENABLE ZERO SUBTOTAL CHECKOUT LOG IN TO YOUR MAGENTO ADMIN PANEL. NAVIGATE TO STORES > CONFIGURATION. IN THE SALES SECTION, SELECT PAYMENT METHODS. SCROLL DOWN TO FIND THE ZERO SUBTOTAL SECTION. SET ENABLE ZERO SUBTOTAL TO YES.

  6. Step 2: Customize the Settings After switching on Zero Subtotal Checkout, simply alter its settings in line with the things your company needs as follows: Title: Set a title for this payment method that will be displayed to customers during checkout. Pick a name like "Free Checkout" or "No Payment Required" to describe it.” New Order Status: Choose the status that orders using this Checkout will be assigned upon completion. The default is usually "Processing." Payment Action: You can select either "Authorize" or also "Authorize and Capture" under this setting. As there is no instance of dealing with payments to consider, this one is often left alone. Sort Order: If you've enabled more than one payment method, set the sort order for this one. Customers will see the available payment methods displayed in this order during checkout.

  7. STEP 3: SAVE CONFIGURATION When you've customized the settings, click on Save Config to make the changes effective.  Benefits of Using Zero Subtotal Checkout 1. Improved User Experience By streamlining the checkout process for orders with zero subtotals, you benefit the customers by giving them a frictionless purchase journey. Customers can quickly complete their transactions without the need to enter payment information, hence, cart abandonment can be reduced and customer satisfaction increased. 2. Efficient Promotional Campaigns This Magento Checkout eases the complexities of managing promotions. Whether you are offering free samples, trial products, or rewards, customers can easily claim their items, and you can track the campaigns' success through your Magento store. 3. Simplified Order Processing Using Checkout, the orders are processed the same way as other orders in Magento do. This enables the merchant to handle inventory, order fulfillment, and shipping without extra moves, making it feasible to process large volumes of zero-subtotal orders.

  8. BEST PRACTICES FOR ZERO SUBTOTAL CHECKOUT 1. Clear Communication Make sure your customers are well informed if they are not paying for a particular item. Implement a clear message on the product's information page and the checkout page to indicate that the product is free and that no payment is needed to be made while buying the product. 2. Inventory Management Keep track of the products supplied at the checkout level to avoid stockouts. The enormous demand for free items may quickly wipe out the available stock, and thus, one of the most important things in this case would be to establish limits and restock inventory as needed. 3. Limit Abuse To protect the checkout feature from being exploited, try out the following restrictions on how often a customer can use it. This could be a free one or a maximum of one claim per order or in a period.
