How does the extension work?
The bundle extension adds a new option type "Bundle" to the available option types.
Using the option, you can configure bundles that consist of multiple products and offer custom prices and discounts to incentivize the customer to purchase more products from your store:
The extension makes use of the Shopify Bundle functionality, which can group multiple products together as a single top level item in the cart/checkout:
Advantages
- Increase revenue by upselling complementary products directly on the product page.
- Better cart layout with items preview and savings.
- Extension is integrated with the options add-ons that link existing products.
- Extension price is fixed at $9/m (most bundle apps charge based on revenue generation).
Config
On the product options config, you can find the option type:
Product bundles
There will be a single standard bundle configured automatically. In most cases, the standard bundle is just the main product (which does not have any products bundled).
You can create multiple bundle configurations, click on Add Bundle:
You can give the bundle a different title (also shown in the Checkout) and mark the bundle as pre-selected. Next, click on Add product to add more products in the bundle:
You can configure individual discounts for each product in the bundle:
Settings
On the App > Settings page > Bundle settings
Cart layout
The app can show the same layout as the Shopify Checkout on the Cart page: (price savings are also displayed)
The app tries to auto insert the bundle layout below the product options. If the automatic location does not work well with your theme, you can provide your own element in the theme code:
<div data-live-item-bundle></div>
The app will render the layout inside of this element.
Add-on Products
The extension can add existing options that have a product linked, as described in How can I add an additional product for an option? This allows to use the Bundle extension without making any changes to your existing configurations.
Main Quantity: it's important to note that the quantity is always matched with the main product quantity when the bundle extension is active:
Custom quantity: if your linked product has a custom quantity, e.g 2x, then for each 1x quantity of the product bundle the product will be added 2x.
Example; if the product bundle quantity is 2, the total "Socks" quantity will be 4.
Once per order is supported with the Bundle extension, if the add-on product is already in the cart, it will be omitted from the bundle:
Discounts
Discounts configured in the Bundle option calculates a new base product price. Shopify discounts are not used by the Bundle extension. The cart layout shows the discounted price:
Shopify discounts
Standard Shopify discounts (code/automatic) that target the main product of the bundle will also apply to the bundle. The discount value is applied to the total value of the bundle (which includes all products). It is not possible to target just a single product inside of a bundle using Shopify discounts.
Note: the bundle option already supports setting new prices per product in the Bundle.
Quantity discounts
The bundle extension can be used in combination with our Quantity discount Extension, but it's important to note that the discounts will apply to the total bundle price.
