To create product bundles on Shopify, use the free Shopify Bundles app to select products and variants, save the bundle, set it to Active, and publish it to your chosen sales channels. Before launch, review the bundle details; after launch, monitor its performance using available sales data.

**Key takeaways**

- Shopify Bundles is a free first-party app available on all Shopify plans for creating fixed bundles and multipacks.[1]
- The least available required component determines how many complete bundles can be sold, so verify component stock before publishing.[2]
- Shopify Bundles does not automatically update a bundle’s price when a component’s price changes.[1]
- Review bundle performance alongside other relevant store metrics.

## What kinds of product bundles can you create with Shopify?

A fixed bundle contains a predetermined set of products and associated variants, while a multipack contains more than one of the same product.[2]

Shopify Bundles is Shopify’s free first-party app for creating fixed bundles and multipacks, and it is available on all Shopify plans.[1][2] A fixed bundle can include up to 30 components, with no more than three options and 100 variants total per bundle.[1] Check these limits while planning the assortment, especially when a bundle includes several products or variant choices.

The app’s documented bundle types are fixed bundles and multipacks. Choose a fixed bundle when customers should receive a predetermined combination, or a multipack when they should receive multiple units of one product.[2] If your intended offer depends on a different bundle configuration, check that the chosen app supports it before building the product.

## Is your store eligible, and where can you sell bundles?

Before creating a bundle, confirm that your checkout setup, purchase options, and sales channels are compatible with the offer.[2]

- **Checkout:** Your store must use an upgraded checkout; stores using checkout.liquid customizations or features are incompatible with product bundles.[2]
- **Purchase options:** Bundles are not compatible with subscriptions, pre-orders, or try-before-you-buy.[2]
- **Channels:** Bundles can be sold through the Online Store, Shop, and Shopify POS; Google & YouTube supports fixed bundles only.[3]
- **Shipping:** Bundles do not have separate shipping profiles. Shipping rates use the profiles of the individual products.[2]

Use this as a go/no-go check: if your bundle requires an incompatible purchase option or checkout setup, resolve that constraint before preparing the product page. If you plan to sell on Google & YouTube, use a fixed bundle rather than a multipack.[3]

## How do you create a fixed bundle or multipack?

Create the bundle in Shopify admin, select its products and variants, then activate and publish it.[1]

1. Open **Apps > Bundles > Create bundle** in your Shopify admin.[1]
2. Save the bundle. Before publishing, confirm that the components, options, and total variants fit the app’s documented limits.[1]
3. Set the product status to **Active** and publish the bundle to the sales channels where you intend to sell it.[1]

Use a name that distinguishes the bundle from its individual products. On the product page, clearly identify the included items and variants so shoppers can understand what the offer contains. These are practical merchandising recommendations; Shopify’s documented setup flow is to select products and variants, save, activate, and publish.[1]

## How does Shopify calculate bundle inventory?

Shopify calculates available bundle quantity from component inventory in real time, and the scarcest required component determines how many complete bundles are available.[2]

To calculate the available quantity, divide each component’s available inventory by the quantity of that component required in one bundle, round each result down to a whole number, and use the lowest result.[2] For example, Shopify’s documented “home office” bundle contains two chairs and one desk: with 15 chairs and 8 desks available, the store can sell 7 complete bundles.[2]

Shopify Bundles tracks inventory by overall stock rather than by location.[1] Before publishing, use this inventory checklist:

- Confirm that inventory tracking is set up for every component.
- Check the available stock for each component and the quantity needed per bundle.
- Review each product’s “Continue selling when out of stock” setting before relying on its displayed availability.

The bundle’s available quantity can change as component inventory changes, so make stock checks part of routine product operations.[2]

## What should you check about bundle price and shipping?

Review the bundle’s price after changing a component price, because Shopify does not automatically update the bundle price when a bundled product’s price changes.[1]

- After manual component price changes or price imports, review affected bundle prices in Shopify admin.[1]
- Manually update the bundle price when needed; do not assume it follows component price changes automatically.[1]
- Review the bundle details before publishing.

Keep a repeatable price review in your product-update workflow so that component changes prompt a check of related bundles. Use your store’s sales data to inform pricing decisions.

## How can you measure whether a bundle is selling?

Use Shopify’s bundle reports to review sales over time, compare bundles and components, and see how the same products sell individually.[1][4]

Shopify Analytics provides “Bundle total sales over time,” “Total sales by bundle,” “Total sales by bundle component,” and “Bundle component and product comparison”; bundle data displays when you sell bundles using the Shopify Bundles app.[4] The component comparison report shows total sales of products in bundles compared with total sales of those same products sold individually.[4]

The Shopify Bundles app also includes “Bundle total sales,” “Bundle orders,” “Top total sales,” and “Most ordered” reporting indicators.[1] Use the following review routine:

1. Choose a reporting period and check bundle sales and orders for that period.
2. Identify which bundles and components account for sales, then compare component sales in bundles with sales of the same products individually.[1][4]
3. Track any changes in average order value or conversion separately, and do not attribute a change to bundles without store-specific evidence.[4]

This approach distinguishes observed bundle sales from an assumed performance effect. Shopify’s reports support sales comparisons; they do not, by themselves, prove that a bundle caused a change in average order value or conversion.[4]

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I offer a bundle with a subscription option?

No. Shopify states that bundles are not compatible with purchase options, including subscriptions, pre-orders, and try-before-you-buy.[2]

### Can Shopify Bundles track inventory separately for each location?

No. Shopify Bundles tracks inventory by overall stock, not by location.[1]

### Will changing a component’s price automatically change the bundle price?

No. You need to review and manually update the bundle price in Shopify admin when a bundled product’s price changes.[1]

### Can I use Shopify Bundles with a third-party bundle app?

The Shopify documentation cited here explains Shopify Bundles and bundle eligibility but does not establish whether Shopify Bundles can be combined with a specific third-party bundle app. Check that app’s documentation and confirm compatibility with its developer before using both in the same store.
