How to Create a Bundle
Access feature
To access and enable this feature, follow these steps:
From app admin, select Recommendation > Predictive bundles
Click Add new bundle
Select the bundle type you'd like to add.
Bundle Settings
⚠️ Note
Bundles will display according to the search terms when there is a product in the bundle shown in the search results.
Bundles are arranged based on their creation/updating time. The most recently created/updated bundle will be prioritized. Each placement will display only one bundle, even if multiple activated bundles match the search terms. If multiple active bundles are added to the cart page, the bundle with the highest discount amount will be applied.
Classic Bundles (which consist of manually selected products) take priority over AI-generated Bundles (such as Frequently Bought Together (FBT) or Related Items). This means that when both types of bundles are available, the Classic Bundles will be displayed first, ensuring that your manually curated product selections are prioritized over automatically generated recommendations.
