How to create bundles on Shopify (2026): 4 ways, with and without an app

A Shopify bundle sells two or more products, or several units of one product, at one price. There are four ways to create bundles on Shopify. Shopify's free Bundles app makes fixed packs and multipacks. A plain product works without any app. Shopify's own discounts can reward buying items together. A bundle app adds quantity breaks and mix and match to the product page. This guide shows each method step by step, with its limits, so you can pick the right one for your products. We make Section Store, the bundle app in method 4. Section Store is a Shopify app with theme sections, bundles, a cart drawer and AI Pages. Section Store Plus is its $15 monthly plan.

Which bundle method should you use?

Use Shopify Bundles for a fixed set or a multipack with its own product page. Use a bundle app for quantity breaks, mix and match or buy X get Y offers shown in the buy box. Use a plain product only for a one-off kit you'll restock by hand.

How do you create a bundle with the Shopify Bundles app?

Install Shopify's free Shopify Bundles app, then build the bundle from products you already sell. These steps follow Shopify's help center.

1. Create the products that go in the bundle, if they don't exist yet.
2. In your Shopify admin, go to Apps → Bundles and click Create bundle.
3. Enter a title and click Select products. Pick the items for the bundle.
4. Set quantities. To make a multipack, duplicate a product or raise its quantity.
5. Choose which variants to include. Turn on Combine options with matching names to let shoppers pick a size once for every item.
6. Click Save and continue, then add the price, images and description.
7. Set the status to Active and save. New bundles start as drafts.

What are the limits of Shopify Bundles?

How do you create Shopify bundles without an app?

You can create Shopify bundles without an app in two ways: a bundle product, or Shopify's own discounts. Both are free on every Shopify plan. A bundle product is a new item that stands for the set, and you keep its stock by hand. A discount lowers the price in the cart, but the product page doesn't show the deal.

To make a bundle product:

1. Go to Products → Add product and name it, for example "Shampoo and conditioner set".
2. Set the bundle price and a compare-at price to show the saving.
3. List what's inside in the description and add a photo of the set.
4. Track its stock as its own item, and lower the single products' stock by hand when bundles sell.

This works for a gift set you pack ahead. For anything that sells every day, the stock gets out of sync fast. Shopify Bundles or an app fixes that.

Can you bundle with Shopify's own discounts?

Shopify's own discounts can bundle products for deals that need no special product page. They apply in the cart.

• Buy X get Y. Create a buy X get Y discount, for example "buy a shampoo, get a conditioner 50% off". Make it automatic so shoppers don't need a code.
• Buy more, save more. Create an amount off products discount with a minimum quantity of items. Make one discount per tier. If tiers can't combine, Shopify applies the best one.

Two catches. The product page doesn't show the deal, so you need to explain it in the description or a banner. Each automatic discount also uses one of Shopify's 25 active automatic discount slots, shared with your apps. On plans below Shopify Plus, products in a buy X get Y discount can't get further product discounts.

How do you create bundles with a bundle app?

A bundle app shows the offer in the buy box: tiers to pick, a mix-and-match picker or a "buy 2, get 1 free" choice. Here's how it works in Section Store. Other apps follow similar steps.

1. In the Section Store app, open Bundles and click Add Bundle. Pick a preset or start from scratch. The presets are "Quantity breaks for the same product", "Buy X, get Y (BXGY) deal", "Quantity breaks for different products", "Complete the bundle", "Subscription" and "Choose your quantity".
2. Or describe it. Type something like "Create a Buy 2 Get 3 offer for @Product with 15% off", or attach a screenshot of a bundle you like.
3. Pick the products. Apply the offer to all products, chosen products or collections.
4. Set the tiers and discounts. Use a percentage, an amount off or a fixed price. You can add free gifts or checkbox add-ons too.
5. Design it. Choose a layout, colors and badges like "Most popular".
6. Click Publish. The discount is created as a native Shopify discount, so the checkout price matches the cart.
7. Add the Bundle block to your product page in the theme editor, then test a checkout.

Drafts are free. Publishing needs Section Store Plus at $15 a month, which also includes a cart drawer and AI Pages. The Subscription preset needs a subscription app for the subscribe option.

Which bundle types can you offer?

How should you price a bundle?

• Start from your margin. Work out the lowest bundle price that still pays for the products, packing and shipping.
• Make the saving easy to see. Show the "was" price or a "Save 20%" badge.
• Give each step a reason. Make the saving grow with each tier, so the bigger option feels like the deal.
• Bundle what people already buy together. Check your orders for products that often share a cart.
• Test one change at a time. Compare paid orders, not clicks, before you keep a new price.

Which bundle app should you use?

It depends on the offer and your size. Bundler has the best free plan for quantity breaks. Simple Bundles is best for kits with component SKUs, at $14 to $349 a month by Shopify plan and orders. Section Store Plus is $15 a month at any revenue, with a cart drawer included. Compare them all in our best Shopify bundle apps guide, or see the best quantity breaks apps if you only need tiers.
