Shopify Bundles

It is very frustrating that this app does not support POS sales channel.

I wasted lots of time creating tens of bundles, hired a professional photographer to make high quality pictures of my bundles - to sell both online and in my retail store (which is 95% of my business), and after all the work has been done I found out that POS (along with other channels) is not supported at all!

It is not mentioned in app description neither that POS is not supported. Now I have to find another app, most likely paid, and do all the work again.

App is good in theory.

However, there is no possible solution to bundling products that already have their own packaging (ex. 2 boxes, one for each product) and Shopify creating 2 shipping labels since both product box weights are different, It will only create 1 shipping label for the first product listed in the bundle and doesn't make one for the second product in the bundle. I can see this working for a cosmetic brand that will pack their own boxes with products but not with brands that have their packaging pre-existing. I believe it would be as easy as creating 2 bundle SKUs, one for each product in the bundle.

I have contacted support multiple times for this feature to be looked into. Frustrating for such an easy fix, would love to see this feature added!

Excited to see this expand and evolve, but we can't use it as it stands now. We're revisiting this app in the future and hopefully some of the cons here will have been worked out.

Pros:
1- Auto price calculation and updating.
2- Might provide more accurate stock or less discrepancies ( which happen already very rarely with the other bundles app we use).
3- You can see that the line items are bundles in Shopify. You can't see this in the other app we use.

Cons:
1- Can't show in any sale channel except online store, no POS and no IG social media. So it's affecting instagram marketing.

2- The line item "type" takes the "type" from components and doesn't have its own. This causes issues with our email flows so people don't receive an associated email we have set up. Changing the product type or tags on the components would affect all of our other collections conditions.

3- Stock tracking and adjustment history and committed orders don't show on the kit line item which makes stock investigations a bit more complex.

4- App feel like a work in progress features-wise

5- Bulk edit doesn't work on some of the features so we have to use another app for edits like the weight.

6- Can't be used on a pre-existing line item which means we would have to re-do ALL existing bundles. The investment of this work is high.

7- Printed invoices don't reflect that the customer has bought a bundle so it makes pulling and organizing orders harder (especially if it's a launch with bundles from different pulling locations in addition to non-bundled items).

Easy to use. Expect it will increase our sales value

Très bonne expérience client !

I love that Shopify added this. Working great for our store, saving us money on having to pay monthly for a solution.

my experience is very good . and easily sell on shopify

So far the app is working well for our use. I would rate more in the 3.75 range. The app desperately needs reporting, conversions, repeat buys by customers and other cart stats would be very helpful in helping us determine how the bundle is working vs the performance of the individual items. You can do that on your own, but that requires combing thru orders . Since the bundles have their own SKU anyway, why not also include them in the same reporting other products get?

One huge issue we are having with bundles! We are both a Online and POS customer, but the bundles app does not allow any of these bundles to be used in the POS brick and mortar store. Very ...very confusing for the customers who buy online and then pickup-in-store. They show up...want to buy another bundle and we then have to manually recreate the bundle thru discounts. This can get very messy when dealing with other discounts.

Please, please, please fix this Shopify!... it only makes since for Bundles to be able to work from E-store to POS.

This as app has helped us out in some ways but has caused issues in other ways. I've contacted the support before to let them know that the bundle products do not show up on any other sales channels (Google, Instagram, FB for instance) which is a massive downside when trying to market the bundle products - it's pretty much impossible. So far the response was that I was only the 2nd person to query this and it's not on top of their 'to fix' list.

The bundles API only transfers the contained products, but no information about the bundles they belong to. This results in invoice-creation-apps like Billbee and Pickware not displaying the bundle-name on our customers invoices. Also the automated pricing for the contained products is inacceptable.
