BOGOS: Free Gift Bundle Upsell (4,193) and Kite Discount, Free Gift, BOGO (1,005) sit close enough on cumulative reviews that current velocity matters more than the totals — for gift messages merchants, the apps adding reviews fastest right now (rather than the ones with the highest absolute count) are usually a better signal of current product-market fit.
