Multistep bundles that work with product options app

[utkilts]

So I am looking for an app that will basically setup a multi step bundle.  It is basically a clothing outfit, with top, bottom, and accessories.  All of the products are listed on my site, I just need an easy to use flow that will guide the customer through the process to get the entire package.  I have found apps that do this, but have not found one that will with with the product options app I use.  I think those apps basically re-make (in a sense) the listed products to show up in their flow /app.  I need an app that will take my products and show the EXACTLY how they show up on my website now, but just in a flow.  ANy ideas or suggestions?

Hi @utkilts ,

For creating multi-step product bundles that work seamlessly with your existing Shopify store and product options app, here are a few Shopify apps you might consider exploring:

• Bold Bundles - Product Bundles: Allows you to create bundles that customers can purchase with a discount. It supports various types of bundles, such as group, mix-and-match, and bogo (buy one, get one) offers. While primarily focused on bundling for discounts, it may offer the flexibility needed for your multi-step outfit selection process.
• MultiVariants ‑ Bulk Order: This app is designed for creating mix-and-match bundles with product variants. It offers a grid/matrix layout for product selection, minimum/maximum quantity limits, and the ability to customize the bundle form's appearance.
  
• Bundles & Upsell | PickyStory: Offers a drag-and-drop interface to create deals and bundles, including kits, which can be a series of products (like an outfit). It's designed to increase AOV (Average Order Value) by encouraging customers to buy more through bundles.

These apps are designed to enhance product bundling and customization capabilities, which could potentially align with your need to maintain the original presentation of products on your site.

Hope it helps!

Thank you for the recommendations.  I don't think those work the way I want, but I appreciate you answering.

[PageFly-Kate]

Of course, I understand. It's important that we find the right solutions that meet your needs.

Have a nice day!

Did you find a solution for this?

[utkilts]

Nope, not yet.  The product options app I use is APO product options.  They have a new feature they released that allows you to create options that are products in your store.  That is what I was trying to do.  But it is very limited and it won't let me change pricing or anything on them, so defeats the purpose of a bundle.  So i am still searching.

Hi @utkilts,

Are you looking to create bundles that include several products sold separately in your store, but without adding up the individual item costs to the bundle total? Instead, you'd like to set a custom price (maybe a discounted one) for the entire bundle, right? If so, the Easify Product Options app might have the solution you need 🤗.

Let me know more about your products and options, and I can suggest how to set things up. You can also reach out to the Easify team for quicker assistance.

Interesting.  May work.  I will take a look.

@utkilts- here's a new app that sounds to be pretty close to what you are describing.  It's called MultiStep Purchase.  The main focus of the app is to walk customers through steps of products in sort of a systematic approach to bundling.  You can also present customers with a choice of different "paths" before they continue through the steps of their chose path.  Hope that helps.

Yes, that is what I am looking for.  I guess the only thing is if it works with my product options app... I am guessing not.  Also after looking at pricing, your app is very, very limited as to the number of products.  It is a great idea, but too limited for my needs.

[MerchantCopilot]

Thanks for a taking a look - You're right, you can only have a maximum of 5 products displayed in each step (with 10 steps total) for each of the paths. This app is fairly new, so still working on what best fits store owners -and these limits may be changing.  Regarding it working with your existing options app, it currently just uses the default Shopify options setup.  Depending on what you need there, the MultiStep app has the ability to display each of the options as individual drop-downs or as an image for each variant.

[utkilts]

No, I use a product option app as I have thousands of options depending on the listing.  They are currently drop downs, but would have to see if your app would even work with the APO product options app I use.

Yeah, what I am looking for is for your step setup, but with each step being a category of products.  SO it could show 1 or 2 products or it could show 20-25 (depending on the step.).  If you ever you change it to be a bit more flexible, I would be interested.

[MerchantCopilot]

Unfortunately, I don't think it currently integrates with APO, so that may be a show-stopper for now.  (APO Product Options app is a great app, btw.) 

Appreciate your feedback, and your suggestion regarding steps displaying a category of products sounds like something that would benefit a lot of store owners.  I'll log that as a feature request and keep you posted here if it is implemented.

[utkilts]

Thank you!  I do appreciate it.

[utkilts]

Any udpates to your app yet?

[MerchantCopilot]

hey @utkilts  - Thanks for checking back, we actually did recently increase the product limits for the Pro tier.  Previously you were limited to 10 steps per path, with a max of 5 products in each of those steps.  Now you can have 10 products in each of those 10 steps ...so 100 products in a path.  Also your idea of including an entire category of products within a step is still in the works, but I don't have a date yet of when it will be rolled out.

[utkilts]

Thanks! Mabey I will give it a try to see how it works.

[MerchantCopilot]

Sounds good. If you have more questions or want a walk through, let me know.

So it won't work with my product options app... That was the big thing I figured would not work.  But it is a GREAT idea.. I hope it goes well for you.
