Updated over 2 weeks ago

πŸ“¦ Types of Boxes You Can Configure

There are two types of bundles you can configure for your customers:

  1. Dynamically Pricing Bundles

  2. Fixed Pricing Bundles


πŸ”§ How You Can Access Build-a-Box

There are two ways to access and configure a Build-a-Box:


1️⃣ Via Subscription Plan

  1. Go to Subscription Plan in your Merchant Portal.

  2. Click Create Plan.

  3. Configure your Build-a-Box.

2️⃣ Via Build-a-Box Menu

  1. Go to More β†’ Build-a-Box in the Merchant Portal.

  2. Click Create Build-a-Box.

  3. Configure your bundle as needed.


1️⃣ Dynamically Pricing Bundle

As the name suggests, the price of this bundle changes based on the individual products added.

Example: A Build-a-Box for ice cream.

  • Each product has its own cost.

  • The final box price increases as more products are added.

  • Minimum and maximum product selection can be enforced.

  • Tiered discounts can incentivise higher purchases.

Example Configuration:

  • Minimum products: 2

  • Maximum products: 4

  • Discounts:

    • 3 products β†’ 10% discount

    • 4 products β†’ 20% discount


How It Works

With a Dynamic Pricing Bundle:

  • The sum of the selected products determines the total price.

  • Merchants can define rules for product counts and order amounts.

Key Configuration Options:

  1. Product Count Rules

    • Set minimum and maximum products allowed.

    • Example: Customers must add 1–3 products to complete the bundle.

  2. Order Amount Rules

    • Set a minimum total price to meet your pricing threshold.

    • Example: Minimum total order value of $10 before checkout.

  3. Bundle Redirect Location

    • After conditions are satisfied, customers can be redirected to cart, checkout, or a custom page.

    • Guides the customer journey efficiently.

2️⃣ Fixed Pricing Bundle

With a Fixed Pricing Bundle, the final price of the box is fixed, regardless of which products the customer chooses.

Example: A Build-a-Box for apparel.

  • The price is determined by the parent product created in Shopify.

  • Customers select from available items, but the total cost remains the same as the price of the parent product.


How It Works

With a Fixed Pricing Bundle:

  • The total price is set by the parent product.

  • Merchants define which items are included and available for selection within the bundle.

Key Configuration Options:

  1. Parent Product Setup

    • Create a parent product in Shopify.

    • Set a fixed price for this product (e.g., $35).

    • Add it to a subscription plan if required.

  2. Item Selection Rules

    • Include a range of products (e.g., shirts and shorts) from which customers can choose.

    • Customers select the items, but the final price remains unchanged.

  3. Bundle Redirect Location

    • After selecting the parent product, customers proceed to the next step (cart, checkout, or custom page).

    • Ensures a smooth customer journey similar to Dynamic Pricing Bundles.
