Bundle options with mix and match

Retail & Point of Sale

Topic summary

A merchant wants to create a fixed-price bundle where customers select exactly one item from each of five different product groups (each group containing 3 style variations of the same size). The key requirement is enforcing selection limits—customers must choose one item per group to complete the bundle—while maintaining accurate stock control.

Proposed Solutions:

Multiple respondents recommend dedicated bundle apps:

  • MBC Bundles & Volume Discount: Offers preset templates, variant-level selection, fixed pricing, and customizable display widgets
  • BYOB: Features tab-based product organization for building custom bundles
  • Bundlemaster: Provides step-based configuration with min/max selection limits (set to 1 per group), four layout options, and fixed pricing capabilities
  • JTDL Bundles & Discounts: Supports “Build Your Own Bundle” functionality with mix-and-match features

One respondent suggests custom development as an alternative, where bundle functionality could be hardcoded for optimized site speed, with all five products grouped as a single product and cart removal synchronized.

The discussion remains open with no final decision indicated by the original poster.
