COLLECTION BUNDLES

Collection Bundles are an advanced bundle that allows merchants to create interactive product bundles where customers can select items from different collections. Instead of fixed product combinations, customers get to choose their preferred products from curated collections, creating personalized bundles that increase engagement and average order value.

Traditional bundles offer fixed product combinations. Collection Bundles let customers: Choose their own products from collections you specify. For example, you could create a "Complete Skincare Bundle" where customers select:

1. Step 1: Choose a cleanser (from your Cleansers collection)
2. Step 2: Choose a moisturizer (from your Moisturizers collection)
3. Step 3: Choose a serum (from your Serums collection) This gives customers control while still guiding them toward complete purchases.

Yes — the bundle inherits your theme's fonts and styling, and you can customize colors, layout, and spacing directly in the theme editor to match your store's look.

Yes — bundles work with your theme's native cart (page cart, drawer cart, or ajax cart) out of the box, with options to redirect to cart, open the cart drawer, or stay on the page after adding.

No.The entire setup is done through visual interfaces— the MOD Bundles app and the Shopify theme editor. No coding, HTML, CSS, or developer experience is required.

Here's what the process looks like:
1. Create collections in Shopify (standard Shopify skill)
You need a Shopify collection for each step of your bundle. For example, a "Build Your Own Meal" bundle might need an "Appetizers" collection, a "Mains" collection, and a "Desserts" collection. This is done through Products > Collections in your Shopify admin — the same way you'd manage collections for anything else in your store.

2. Build the bundle in MOD Bundles (point-and-click)
Open MOD Bundles, click Create Bundle > Collection Bundle, give it a title, add your steps by selecting collections, choose a discount type, and hit create. The entire process is a guided form — no code involved.

3. Add the app block to your theme (visual theme editor)
Go to Online Store > Themes > Edit theme, create a new product template, and add the Collection Bundle block from the Apps section. This is all drag-and-drop in Shopify's theme customizer. You then assign that template to your bundle product.

What about customization?
All visual customization (colors, layout, show/hide elements) is all handled through the theme editor's settings panel — no code needed. More advanced styling overrides or custom cart drawer integrations may benefit from a developer, but these are entirely optional.
