What Merchants Think

Overall, merchants appreciate Shopify Bundles for its ease of use and the potential it has to simplify inventory management by allowing the creation of product bundles from existing stock. However, many users express significant frustration due to the app’s limitations, such as compatibility issues with sales channels and certain features that were expected but lack full functionality.

Key Strengths

  • Easy setup and navigation.
  • Effective inventory management, preventing overselling of individual products.
  • Good for creating simple bundles from existing products.
  • User-friendly interface, ideal for merchants new to e-commerce.

Common Concerns

  • Bundles not compatible with external sales channels like Google, Facebook, or Instagram.
  • Limitations on the number of variants and options per bundle.
  • Recurring technical bugs affecting inventory listings and stock updates.
  • The lack of support for subscription models and custom shipping profiles.
  • Inability to display bundle contents automatically on product pages.

Final Thoughts

While Shopify Bundles has shown potential as an integral tool for managing product bundles efficiently, especially with its straightforward interface and inventory integration, it falls short in crucial areas. The limitations, particularly the lack of support for popular sales channels and persistent bugs, have led to dissatisfaction among users. Future updates addressing these issues could significantly enhance its utility and appeal.

Seems helpful at first, then you find the glaring issues that Shopify refuses to fix: You cannot sell bundled items on ANY sales channel including SHOPIFY POS! No FB. No Google. No IG. No Pinterest. The items simply do not migrate. Shopify support knows this problem. Because these issues directly and significantly impact sales, there are multiple blog posts regarding this issue. Shopify has not fixed it. Do not use this app.

Works great for simple bundling of existing products. Products with variants show as variants at the bundle level. Prices can be changed as needed. Items flow through to order management system as individual items. It is effectively a virtual kit or assembly item.

Eenvoudig in gebruik, functioneel en aantrekkelijk voor kijkers en kopers. De bundels zijn niet overal inzetbaar, gemist in de POS app bijvoorbeeld.

The app is not what I thought it would be. I thought that it would help me in creating a bundle for my multiple single product items into multiple selectable options. But it only has option to do so with items already with variations and you are able to choose multiple options from the items with variations. After multiple trial and errors, I have come up with how to use it for my shop but unfortunately it can only limit the variation up to 100 i.e. 4 variations but one can choose only 3 at a time. Is there any option where I can increase that variation from 100 to maybe 1000?

Let me be clear, you cannot assign a custom shipping profile to a bundle created by this app! WTF??? so let's say you create a bundle and want to offer free shipping, forget it. Serious issues, avoid..wasted days

The app works pretty well, but has a glaring shortcoming that makes its usefulness limited. There is no way to automatically display the included products on a bundle product page. You have to manually show what is included. This seems like it should be basic functionality--to tell people what they are buying.

I’m really frustrated with the Shopify Bundles app. It doesn’t make any sense that we can’t just take an existing product and turn it into a Bundle. We’ve already got a bunch of Bundles set up with another app, and having to create new products just to use with the Shopify Bundles app means we’d lose all the sales history for those products. This is causing us a lot of unnecessary hassle. It would be so much easier if we could just convert existing products into Bundles without losing any data.

If you have an inventory location that does not allow sales, this bundle app will sell inventory from this location.

Ich bin absolut begeistert von Shopify Bundles! Ich habe sie in meinem Onlineshop Stein.Kunst.Werk. integriert, und sie funktionieren einwandfrei. Die Einrichtung war kinderleicht, und die Anpassungsmöglichkeiten sind super flexibel. Seitdem ich Shopify Bundles nutze, konnte ich meinen Kunden attraktive Kombi-Angebote anbieten, was die Verkaufszahlen spürbar gesteigert hat. Besonders beeindruckt hat mich, wie nahtlos die Bundles in den Bestellprozess integriert sind – alles läuft reibungslos, ohne dass ich viel nachjustieren musste. Meine Kunden lieben die Möglichkeit, personalisierte Sets zu erstellen, und ich freue mich über die gesteigerte Kundenzufriedenheit und den Umsatz. Shopify Bundles ist definitiv eine lohnende Investition für jeden Onlineshop!

When a bundle includes multiple variations from different products, it will cause a significant bug on the product page.

I have been manually creating and managing inventory for bundled products. This is such a saviour app. Thank you!

App does not allow to sell on channels other than 'Online Store' or 'Shop'. It is not possible to sell products created via bundles on channels such as Facebook, Instagram, Google or YouTube, which despite being a use case for most users, is not explicitly listed unless you search this matter on Shopify Forums. Even then, the case appears to have been raised to support numerous times well over a year ago with no action taken. Unfortunately, lack of support for official shopify apps seems to be a common theme. The matter listed above makes this app redundant for our store, otherwise it would be fantastic.

This is a good idea but I don't feel like it was fully executed. What's lacking for me is lack of ability to be able to manage the bundles via the API. Without that key ability, this product is useless for anyone that doesn't rely on the Shopify UI or has a flow that's outside of Shopify's Admin console. The other key feature that this app is lacking is the ability to create bundles on the variant level. It only supports creating bundles on the Product level. Edit: After a lot of painstaking research and documentation diving, I figured out how to control the bundle from Shopify's GraphQL; which is quite a complex undertaking in my opinion.

It is quite nice in many ways. But it has a long list of limitations and reasons why it can't be used - such as incompatibility with subscription products.

Looks like it has promise but has some bugs which made it unusable in our case. Issue: We have 22 variants on our products. We added 2 products to a bundle which made a total of 44 variants. The app mis-counted it as 500 variants. The variant limit is 100, so we couldn't proceed with the listing.

Another expected, underwhelming and useless app shopify provides. Why would the bundle not be out of stock if ONE product is out of stock? That is a crucial piece of information to know. Just useless…customers don’t buy the bundle to receive ONE product only but because they want THE bundle of products. Shopify again puts the merchant on the back foot and the merchant need to manage customer expectations. I do wonder who comes up with this none sense…

So far so good! It would be great if it calculated the shipping weights automatically. The one thing that's not working is the inventory amount is completely wrong.

I like it, easy to use, not complicated but I have a bug that the Buy button is not visible, you can not buy the product

Aside from its limited functionality, it also has known bugs that appear on random bundles. The main issue is that some bundles show zero stock even though the underlying products have stock, which is a crucial component in a bundle app. After spending days configuring and translating products, it's frustrating when the app stops working for certain items. It's most likely some glitch in the inventory sync and should be easily fixed. Hard to understand that Shopify can't put a developer on this for a few hours to correct it.
