Creating nested bundles in Simple Bundles 2.0

Simple Bundles lets you create nested bundles to sell on your Shopify store. A nested bundle is a bundle that contains other bundles within it.

Here's an example. In this case, the Ultimate Glow Kit is the main bundle which contains two bundles inside it (Daily Essentials and Weekly Treatments), each of which is a bundle on its own. Each nested bundle contains multiple products.

Skincare "Ultimate Glow Kit" (Main Bundle)

This main bundle contains:

  1. Daily Essentials Bundle (Nested Bundle)
    • Cleanser
    • Toner
    • Moisturizer
  2. Weekly Treatments Bundle (Nested Bundle)
    • Exfoliating Scrub
    • Hydrating Face Mask
  3. Bonus: Travel-size Serum

This strategy is great for:

  • Making inventory and logistics simpler (if you already sell those smaller bundles separately)
  • Offering tiered value (customers can buy individual items, smaller bundles, or the mega bundle)

Create nested bundles with up to 10 levels

When creating nested bundles in Simple Bundles, keep the nesting levels within a reasonable limit for optimal performance. Each additional level of nesting adds depth to the bundle structure, which can impact the processing and loading times.

Nesting Limit:

  • Optimal Levels: You can create nested bundles with up to 10 levels.
  • Breakdown Capability: The app effectively processes and displays all components within these 10 levels. This means that when you create bundles exceeding this limit, any components exceeding this threshold will not undergo processing and will not appear in the Order Admin section of Shopify.

Inventory syncing for nested bundles

Inventory is automatically synced for nested bundles. For example, if you or a customer adjusts the inventory of a product within a nested bundle, the inventory for any bundle that includes that product—whether directly or within another bundle—will be updated accordingly.

How to create a nested bundle in Simple Bundles

Let's take for example that you are building a "Morning Routine Bundle". Instead of just adding a single moisturizer, you can create a nested bundle for a 4-pack that includes different sizes." Assuming that both the main bundle and 4-pack moisturizer bundle are created in Shopify Admin, here's how to set it up directly in the Simple Bundles app.

  1. After Creating the Main Bundle in Shopify Admin:
  • Navigate to Simple Bundles. Click "Create Bundle." Select Existing Bundle product" and choose "Morning Routine Bundle."

  1. Add Products to the Main Bundle:
  • Click "Add Products." Search for and select the "Daily Rescue Facial Mist" product. Click "Add."

  1. Add Products to the Nested Bundle:

Assuming you have already created the Nested Bundle (4-pack Moisturizer) in Shopify. Click "Add Products." Search for and select your "Hydration Moisturizer" product.

4. Save the Main Bundle:

  • Review the entire "Morning Routine Bundle" configuration.
  • Click "Save Bundle" to finalize the nested structure.
