Quantity discount on 2nd item only in Woocommerce

Question

I want to achieve a global discount for all products but only for the 2nd product item.

What do I mean? If the customer buys \"Jacket\" no discount is given.

Answer 1

You could use the Fee API to get a discount (20%) on the 2nd item only this way:

add_action( 'woocommerce_cart_calculate_fees', 'second_item_discount', 10, 1 );
function second_item_discount( $cart ) {

    if ( is_admin() && ! defined( 'DOING_AJAX' ) )
        return;

    $percentage = 20; // 20%
    $discount   = 0;

    // Loop through cart items
    foreach ( $cart->get_cart() as $cart_item ) {
        // When quantity is more than 1
        if( $cart_item['quantity'] > 1 ){
            // 20% of the product price as a discount
            $discount += wc_get_price_excluding_tax( $cart_item['data'] ) * $percentage / 100;
        }
    }
    if( $discount > 0 )
        $cart->add_fee( __( '2nd item discount', 'woocommerce' ) , -$discount );
}

Code goes in function.php file of your active child theme (or active theme). Tested and works.
