Shopify Bundles

Works fantastically on our store, presents bundles well to the customer however doesn't publish out to Facebook or TikTok, doesn't collect reviews from Judge.me. Frustrating as if those issues were solved it would be excellent.

Ok now things seem to be better. After a terrible start, Shopify Bundles Team seems to have fixed the problem.

We've been loosely monitoring the volumes reported in the bundle products and comparing them to the least available product in the bundle and it seems to be stable indeed. Haven't checked all the inventory either.

I won't claim victory immediately, as we previously had the impression the bundles were OK, but were not.

Nonetheless, I'll gladly admit Shopify took the problem seriously and did what needed to be done. Well done. Thanks.

It works, but has less flexibility than the same feature in 40-year-old POS systems. Hoping for more options and features in the future. Would love to see:

- a toggle for whether or not to reveal the parts of a bundle to the customer
- support for more sales channels
- auto calculation for cost and weight based on bundle components
- support for add-on products

Bundles work great, when it works. Some update on Shopify's side broke the ability for a bundled product to work with both MetaFields and MetaObject driven pages/themes. Our use case is that we offer a product quiz to customers, which selects a specific product and size (but color doesn't matter). Bundles allow us to pre-select the size for customers, and we place that bundled product on a custom page. If your web page (where you embed the product) is driven from a metaobject or metafields link to the product, it won't work (shows out of stock, glitches). If you embed the product in the theme it works, but it means you need one theme per page/product (negates the benefits of metaobjects/fields). We escalated to support, but they kept blaming our customizations -- even though we're using the out of the box 'meta' features of Shopify. We're using Dawn btw.

Can't use based on these reviews. Surely most merchants creating bundles will want to price a bundle so its less than the items together when not bundled. Seems like it us not.

Absolute rubbish. Spent hours creating new bundles only to find out that the new bundled products can't be published to FB or Google sales channels. What good is a product on a website if you can't market it!!!

This is more of a review of what I was told it would do. In shopping around for a new POS, our Shopify salesperson assured us we could use Bundles as a tool to receive inventory, as our inventory often comes in packs to be broken down. Shopify only allows one barcode, and because we use more than one barcode, one for the item and one for the package, she assured us that we could use this in Stocky to receive bundled merch. It was a lie. But she did sell us on Shopify POS. I really wish we had gone with someone else.

You can't create a direct-to-checkout link for a Bundle.

Shopify's own products, both of them. And yet, impossible. So you must send your customers to the Bundle home page, and from there they do the 'add to cart' thing.

Why? Why why why. Whhhyyyyyyy. It's a computer. They can do anything. Just make it do this.

This is a good example of a feature that is 90% on the way to being perfect, but the 10% of functionality that is lacking causes the feature to be unusable. Most themes don't seem to support bundles at all, which leads to sub-optimal experiences like the bundled product pages not being able to show any details of the individual products that make up the bundle! Liquid code doesn't seem to have access to product.bundle_components and theme developers say they won't update their themes to support bundles as it's an external app feature and not a native shopify feature.

The app will show the bundles as OUT OF STOCK on Collection pages if you don't select the option to "sell when it's out of stock"... It means you CAN'T MANAGE THE STOCK!! I lost 3 days trying to solve the issue with SUPPORT TEAM, but was useless... Ridiculous!!!!
