Minimal order quantity as a bundle ?

[Latoutour]

Hi 🙂

I am trying to build a shop to sell wines. Because of shipping, i can only sell by the carton ( 6 bottles ).

I can sell 6 bottles of the same wine of course by making a carton product.

But I'd like to let the customer make a carton with differents bottles. Like a second shopping cart to pick 6 bottles before sending the carton to the main cart. Single bottle product would have a "Add to the carton" button and a "Buy a 6 bottles carton"

Any ideas of a plugin that would help ?

Thanks a lot 🙂

My app can help customers build custom bundles. I am interested in your use case. Is there any discount when customers pick 6 bottles? Can the customers get a discount?

[Latoutour]

No discount, it's just a matter of bundling products to ship by carton.

And it would be great to have it in French. I can help with the transation if you send me the .PO

Hi @Latoutour ,

what you are probably looking for is a bundle builder app. With these apps, customers can typically choose a few products (wine bottles in your case) from the list of products that you provide and thus create their unique bundle which they can later purchase. Here are a few that I can recommend for that:

• Easy Bundles - this app allows you to create a bundle builder where customers can choose products from the list of products that you provide at each step. The app also supports many other things like setting conditions, translation, advanced bundle customization, etc. It's a great app, but it may be a little pricey to start since the cheapest plan is 49$/month.
• Kitenzo ‑ Full Page Bundles - this app is similar to Easy Bundles features-wise. The only thing I find a little less intuitive and beginner-friendly in this app are layout customization options. The app has a "Design editor" that allows you to change how your bundle builder looks, but for all the bigger changes it will require some coding knowledge. This app pricing starts at 25$/month + 1.25% off all bundle sales generated through the app.
• NeatBundles: Easy Mix & Match - this is actually the app that I've been working on for the past 6 months. It doesn't have some of the advanced features like subscriptions or analytics, but it should be enough for your use case. Also, it's priced much more affordably at just 7$/month without any additional fees + 30-day free trial. The app currently doesn't support any other language except English. I was already planning to add translation support but kept prolonging it because of other features. If that feature is mandatory for you, I can put it in focus and probably be done in the next week or so. Let me know if that sounds okay to you at jure@neatmerchant.com

Best of luck,

Im gonna give a shot to your plugin and see how it goes.

If you have a PO file i can help with the french translation.

[juka_dev]

Sure, let me know how it goes. 

In terms of translation, there will be an option in the settings where you will be able to translate all the customer-facing text fields yourself. You will be able to change the text that is displayed on the bundle page like "Next step", "Finish", "Step", etc.

In terms of the part of the app that's in the admin dashboard, it will stay in English for now.

I started the work on translation yesterday and will let you know by email when I add the translation option. Also, the option will in the app under global settings once it's finished.

Kind regards,

Hi @Latoutour 

You might want to check out Easify Product Options. It allows customers to mix and match different bottles into a 6-bottle carton before adding it to the main cart. You can create a custom selection process where buyers pick individual bottles while ensuring they meet the 6-bottle requirement. Here's how it can help you: 

• This is the result

• This is the app setting

To limit the selection to 6 bottles, you just need to enable the 'Allow Quantity Selector for option value' in the Advanced Settings and Set an Exact Total quantity to 6 like this:

This app is very beginner-friendly, I hope you will try it. If you need any further assistance setting this up, please let me know or reach out to Easify! 😊
