Want to restrict products selling together

Shopify Discussion
1

Hi, we sell thousands of products on our Shopify site, but there is one product we would like to only sell by itself. So when people add it to their cart and checkout, they must not be allowed to purchase it in combination with any other products, only on its own.

Is there a way to do this on Shopify, or an app?

Thanks

Hi @Juliettevdm ,

Hyde here from Shopify.

Shopify is set up to sell single products by default. To sell bundles or combinations of products you would have to either:

  1. Create a product that is actually a grouping of several products (which will skew your reports and inventory)

or

  1. Use a bundling app.

Perhaps you’ve implemented one of these processes on your site presently? In relation to number one, here is how you create a standard single product.

In relation to number two, you would have to reach out to the app developers in question to see if you can omit a particular product from the rule being set by the app.

I hope this helps, happy to answer any other questions you may have.

All the best, Hyde.

I have a similar requirement of restricting the customer from ordering a combination of items in 1 order.

For example. the store sells aquariums and live fish. If a customer adds an aquarium to their order, we want to restrict them from adding fish. (and vice versa) Among other reasons, fish are delivered overnight and aquariums are shipped ground.

Thank you.

@Juliettevdm One of our clients has this exact requirement, did you ever find a solution?

We ended up with a work around using Parcelify (shipping app) and creating separate shipping groups for items that were overnighted, and items that were shipped ground.
