Bundles and Custom Products

Products and Orders APIs
1

Hello,

I’m trying to build out a store for a client and I’m at a loss. I need to be able to bundle products AND offer customization. I’ve gone through every app I can find and none of them work.

Here’s the challenge:
The main product is a dresser, with the option of what style drawers (each dresser has a different size and number of drawers attached) So I need to be able to keep track of inventory of the drawers that fit with several dressers. If you pick Dresser A and Drawer E, it puts 50 of Drawer Es in the cart at a $75 up charge. If you pick Dresser B and Drawer E, it puts 20 in the cart for a $30 up charge.
Plus I need other custom options for the dresser. I had the drawer and dresser issue setup with Shopify Bundles app.
HOWEVER I can’t find a customization app that works along side the bundles app to give me those additional customization options. Like add different knobs, add a lamp with it, etc. I have way too many options for the Shopify variants and need to keep inventory of the items as well.

Does anyone know of an app that works with the Bundles app or how to accomplish this?

Hey @GeorgiaRose , just a heads-up that this community is geared toward developers building on Shopify’s APIs, so I’ll frame my answer from that angle. If you’re not working with a developer, the merchant community forums may be a better fit for app recommendations.

The Shopify Bundles app only supports fixed and multipack bundles (max 3 options, 100 variants). It wasn’t built for layered customization like adding knobs or a lamp on top of a bundle, which is why nothing plays nicely alongside it.

For your use case you have two paths. First, the App Store maintains a curated collection of third-party bundle apps with mix-and-match support, real-time inventory syncing, and more flexible configuration - worth a look!

Second, if you are a developer or are working with one, a custom app using the Cart Transform Function API gives you full control over dynamic bundle composition, per-component pricing, and component-level inventory tracking. The bundles developer guide walks through the implementation you might find useful. Hope this helps!
