Solution: Apply BOGO (Buy One Get One) for Customer Role in WooCommerce

This code snippet implements a 50% discount on the second item for specific products purchased by customers with certain roles.

add_action('woocommerce_cart_calculate_fees', 'ts_custom_discount_2nd_at_50', 10, 1 );

function ts_custom_discount_2nd_at_50( $cart ){
    if ( is_admin() && ! defined( 'DOING_AJAX' ) )
        return;

    // YOUR SETTINGS:
    $targeted_product_id = 34; // Set HERE your targeted product ID
    $allowed_customer_roles = array('customer'); // Specify the allowed customer roles

    // Check if the current user has the allowed customer role
    if ( ! is_user_logged_in() || ! array_intersect($allowed_customer_roles, wp_get_current_user()->roles) )
        return;

    // Initializing variables
    $discount = $qty_notice = 0;
    $items_prices = array();

    // Loop through cart items
    foreach ( $cart->get_cart() as $key => $cart_item ) {
        if( in_array( $targeted_product_id, [$cart_item['product_id'], $cart_item['variation_id']] ) ){
            $quantity = (int) $cart_item['quantity'];
            $qty_notice += $quantity;
            for( $i = 0; $i < $quantity; $i++ ) {
                $items_prices[] = floatval( $cart_item['data']->get_price());
            }
        }
    }

    $count_items = count($items_prices); // Count items

    rsort($items_prices); // Sorting prices descending order

    if( $count_items > 1 ) {
        foreach( $items_prices as $key => $price ) {
            if( $key % 2 == 1 )
                $discount -= number_format( $price / 2, 2 );
        }
    }

    // Applying the discount
    if( $discount != 0 ){
        $cart->add_fee('Buy one get one 50% off', $discount );

        // Displaying a custom notice (optional)
        wc_clear_notices(); // clear other notices on checkout page.
        if( ! is_checkout() ){
            wc_add_notice( __("You get 50% of discount on the 2nd item"), 'notice');
        }
    }
    // Display a custom notice on cart page when quantity is equal to 1.
    elseif( $qty_notice == 1 ){
        wc_clear_notices(); // clear other notices on checkout page.
        if( is_cart() ){
            wc_add_notice( __( "Add one more to get 50% off on 2nd item" ), 'notice');
        }
    }
}

Output

When the user logs in as a ‘customer’ role, and adds the product i.e. T-shirt with Logo on to the cart page with the quantity of 2, the BOGO offer gets applied as shown below.

Instead of targeting specific customer role you can target a broader audience and apply BOGO (Buy One Get One) offers for guest users in WooCommerce.
