BundleBoss - Product Bundles, Mix and Match & Build a Box for WooCommerce

BundleBoss is one plugin instead of three: deal packs, configurable kits and build-your-own boxes all live here, so you are not stitching separate bundle, mix-and-match and composite plugins together. And it starts simple: a first bundle takes about two minutes, timed from a fresh install to published on a stock store. Here is what sets it apart: most bundle plugins lock every slot. BundleBoss is built around customer choice from the first click. The free plugin groups products into a "buy these together and save" pack and lets customers pick the size and colour of every unit, buying the lot as one cart line. If you can describe the bundle, you can probably build it here. That is why shops run it for deal packs, configurable products, build-your-own kits, gift sets, and team kit and workwear. See BundleBoss build a bundle in two minutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuWtQvS689A Try it live: demo.getbundleboss.com is a full demo store running Pro, with build-a-box discounts, a PC configurator and more. Click around and build things, nothing breaks, it resets nightly. Prefer reading? The step-by-step guides are at getbundleboss.com/docs. What is free and what is Pro The free plugin is the complete fixed-bundle product, not a demo and not a trial. You choose what goes in the bundle; your customer configures every unit of it and buys the lot as one cart line. Free includes:

• Per-unit configuration: the customer sets the size, colour and options of every unit, restricted to the variations you allow
• Three pricing modes (percentage off, set amount off, fixed price), plus quantity tier discounts
• Bundle rules: quantity ranges per item, optional items customers can skip
• A guided creation wizard: pick what you are making, add products, preview, and create, no manual field wrangling
• A guided product page: per-item cards, colour swatches, the "All the same" shortcut, three unit layouts
• Promotions: sale countdown timer, related-bundles carousel, the progress-to-discount cart nudge
• Oversell-proof stock and fulfilment-ready orders with a component pick list
• Store plumbing: shipping weight modes, Cart and Checkout blocks, WPML and Polylang, JSON export and import
• Item links, if you want them: an optional small arrow beside each item name opens the product's own page in a new tab, so customers can check details without losing their bundle

Pro adds the Builder and the selling tools:

• Choice slots: customers pick each component from pools you define, with compatibility and quantity rules and conditional items, all enforced on the server
• Product options: define a set once (colours, sizes, weights), attach it to any simple product, and it offers those choices like a variable product with zero variations created. Works inside bundles and on the product's own page, with optional extra charges per option
• Two more layouts: the full-page Configurator and a step-by-step walkthrough
• Build-a-box (mix and match): fill a box from a pool, with a target size and per-product limits
• Self-updating category pools: point a choice slot or box at a product category instead of a fixed list, and it stays current, a product added to that category later shows up in the slot automatically
• Size-run quantity grid: a colours-by-sizes matrix for bulk orders
• Per-item personalisation with fees, plus logo and file upload with GDPR export and erase
• Order growers: frequently bought together (on the page and in the cart), buy X get Y, gift mode
• Shareable build links (any shop can open one; creating them is Pro), hero slots, deal badges, and the Composite Products importer

Ready to grow every order? BundleBoss Pro has a 14-day trial, no card needed. Upgrading keeps every bundle you built in the free plugin.

When you find something BundleBoss does not do yet, tell us. We are small, we ship often, and we build what shop owners actually ask for (see "Tell us what you need" below). The free plugin, in detail

• Per-unit configuration: every unit of a bundle item can be configured independently
• Guided configurator: collapsible cards with sticky headers, one-line summaries and full keyboard support
• "All the same" toggle: configure once and every unit follows; switch it off afterwards and the picks stay, ready for individual tweaks
• Three unit layouts: arrange a multi-quantity item's units as stacked cards, compact cards, or a comparison table, chosen per bundle
• Progress-to-discount nudge: the cart shows "Add 1 more to unlock 15% off" with a progress bar and a one-click button to add another identical bundle
• Colour swatches: give attribute terms a colour and chips become swatch circles
• Three pricing modes: a percentage discount, a set amount off, or one fixed bundle price
• Quantity tier discounts: "buy 3+, save 20%"
• Sale countdown timer: live countdown bar with start/end scheduling
• Related bundles carousel: cross-sell between bundle pages
• Oversell-proof stock: component stock validated while configuring, at add-to-cart and at checkout, reduced on sale and restored on refund
• Fulfilment-ready orders: pick list with component SKUs and quantities on every order
• Shipping weight modes: automatic (sum of chosen components) or manual
• Export / import: move every bundle between sites as one JSON file
• Multilingual: WPML and Polylang supported out of the box

BundleBoss Pro, in detail BundleBoss Pro adds the full Builder, advanced layouts, and the selling tools to grow every order:

• Choice slots: customers pick each component from pools you define (PC-builder style), with live pricing on every option
• Compatibility and quantity rules: stop impossible combinations, enforced on the server, not just in the browser
• Per-item personalisation: optional add-on fields (names, options, notes), each able to carry a fee, captured per unit and shown on the order and the warehouse pick list. Built for team kit, workwear and promo
• Logo and file upload: customers attach a logo or artwork to an item; secure upload, a download link on the order, GDPR export and erase included
• Hero slots: the customer's chosen product takes over the page's main product image
• Deal badges: products on sale and featured products surface in the chooser
• Step-by-step layout: walk customers through one item at a time, with progress and free navigation
• Shareable build links: customers copy a finished build to a link anyone can open and buy (free shops can open a shared link; creating one is Pro)
• Migrate from Composite Products: one click converts existing composites to draft bundles
• Configurator layout: a full-page, two-pane builder with a docked "Your build" summary and a price on every option, for big or many-part products like a gaming PC
• Build-a-box (mix and match): customers fill a box by choosing any number from a pool, with a target size, per-product limits, and a live count and total (any 6 chocolates, any 4 candles)
• Self-updating category pools: build a choice slot or box pool from a product category, by hand, or both. A category pool maintains itself, add a product to the category and it appears in the slot with no edit to the bundle, ideal for a rotating range or a large catalogue
• Gift mode: a recipient, a gift message, optional gift wrap with a fee, and a no-prices gift receipt, all carried through to the order
• Frequently bought together: surface companion products with a combined price and a set discount, the add-the-whole-set upsell
• Buy X get Y: buy-two-get-one-free style offers scoped to the bundle's own items (the cheapest goes free), shown clearly as was, pay, and you save
• Conditional items: show or hide a bundle item based on what the customer has already chosen, enforced on the server (pick the tagged top and the matching-joggers slot appears)

The free plugin is complete on its own; Pro adds everything described here. Everything under "The free plugin, in detail" stays free. Tell us what you need BundleBoss is built and updated by the people who answer its support, and the roadmap is written by real shop owners. If you need a bundle it does not handle yet, or an option you wish existed, ask for it on the support forum. Every request gets read and answered, and "can it do X?" is exactly how new features get chosen. You name it, and there is a real chance we build it. Requirements

5.0.2 - 2026-07-30

• Fixed: the "Itemise on the order" switch is a Pro feature, and the free plugin no longer shows a control for it. Nothing you have saved is changed.

5.0.1 - 2026-07-28

• Improved (Pro): Itemise on the order now sits on the Pricing tab, next to price and tax, with clearer wording. How it works is unchanged.

5.0.0 - 2026-07-28

• New: BundleBoss is now part of the BossMage family. Option sets, custom fields and positions on a product's own page have moved to a companion plugin, AddOnBoss. Install AddOnBoss to keep using them. Your bundles are not affected and nothing you built was removed.
• New (Pro): Itemise on the order. A bundle can optionally be recorded on the order as one native, individually priced and taxed line per component, for ERP and point-of-sale systems that read native product lines. Off by default, so existing orders are unchanged.
• Improved: faster rendering for large build-a-box product pools.

4.18.1 - 2026-07-24

• Fixed: adding a BundleBoss product no longer jumps to the basket. A bundle, a quantity grid or an optioned product confirms in place and keeps the shopper on the product page whatever the shop's "redirect to basket after add" setting, so they keep their place to order more.
• Fixed (Pro): a personalisation field left blank could still leave an empty line on the order and its emails, even though the basket already skipped it. It is skipped everywhere now.

4.18.0 - 2026-07-24

• New (Pro): two-tone swatches. An option can carry a second colour, so a two-colour item such as a navy and red jacket shows a split swatch instead of one flat dot, everywhere the option appears.
• New (Pro): a note on an option. Add a line of help to any option, what "Print protection" actually does for instance, and it appears under the choices as soon as a shopper picks it.
• New (Pro): choose the main option sets. On a product with more than two sets you mark up to two as the main choices; those are what a shopper configures inside a bundle and what forms the quantity grid, and everything else is offered once for the whole order. It works for any sets, not only colour and size.
• Fixed (Pro): a product with three or more option sets could fail to load inside a bundle. A bundle now loads only its main one or two sets, so it always opens and adds to the basket.
• Fixed (Pro): the quantity grid did not follow a VAT toggle. Its total, order summary and per-size surcharges now switch between including and excluding VAT with the rest of the shop.
• Fixed (Pro): the quantity grid always jumped to the basket after adding. It now follows the shop's redirect-to-basket setting, confirming in place and updating the basket count otherwise, like a normal add.
• Fixed (Pro): a personalisation field left blank could leave an empty line on the basket and order. Only fields the shopper filled in show now.
• Improved (Pro): on a phone, after a shopper picks a colour the sizes stay in reach instead of being pushed down the page when there are many colours.
• Improved: clicking BundleBoss in the admin menu now opens its list of pages instead of loading one page.

4.17.1 - 2026-07-23

• Fixed (Pro): on a page-builder theme (Divi with the Visual Builder), a product set to the quantity grid could show the normal one-at-a-time options form as well as the grid. Only the grid shows now, and the product stays purchasable so nothing changes for search engines.
• Fixed (Pro): the "per item / once" charge dropdown appeared next to the grid's own colour and size in the Product options tab on some themes. It shows only on the whole-order choices now.

4.17.0 - 2026-07-23

• New (Pro): the quantity grid. Turn a product's colour and size into one grid on its page, so a customer sets how many of each they want and adds the whole run to the basket at once, rather than adding each one separately. Every colour and size lands as its own basket line at its own price. Made for team kit, workwear and anything ordered by the batch.
• New (Pro): the grid works on a simple product with option sets too, not only a variable one. Colour and size can be options rather than variations, so a made-to-order product prices against its one stock pool.
• New (Pro): whole-order choices. When a product has a further option set such as printing, a finish or packaging, it is offered once for the whole order instead of as a grid cell, and its charge is worked out across the quantity. You choose whether each is charged for every item or once.
• New (Pro): personalisation on the grid. A printed name, a logo or a message applies to the whole order and prices for every item, per letter or once, on a live order summary that always reconciles.
• Improved (Pro): the order summary groups by colour with a subtotal each, marks a dearer size's surcharge, and keeps the total and Add button in reach however large the order gets.

4.16.1 - 2026-07-21

• Fixed (Pro): an option set attached to a product on the Product options tab did not save. The set showed in the editor but was dropped when you pressed Update, so a new product saved its title and price but not its options (fields and groups were unaffected, only newly attached sets were lost). Attaching sets works again.
• New (Pro): an Info / HTML block field. Drop a block of text onto a product, on its own or revealed by a choice, for design notes, instructions or a "what happens next" message. Basic HTML is allowed, and the block keeps its own markup with no wrapper of ours around it.
• Improved (Pro): groups on a product page. A group no longer needs a name (an untitled group is simply a plain section), a group is not collapsible, and its title reads like an option set's. A conditional option or field now stays out of sight until the choice that unlocks it is made, then appears in place, with no "available when" line.

4.16.0 - 2026-07-21

• New (Pro): custom fields on a product's own page. Add a name or text line, a longer message, a number, a tick box, a drop-down or a file upload straight onto a simple product, with no bundle involved. Each field can be optional or required, and each can carry a fee, charged once, per character or per unit, so an engraving line or a rush note prices itself on the page and lands in the order.
• New (Pro): group the options panel into sections. Drag fields and option sets into a named group and it becomes a collapsible block on the product page, so a product with many choices reads as a few tidy sections rather than one long list. A group is a real container, so moving it carries only what sits inside it.
• New (Pro): a field can reveal itself on a choice. "Available only when Gift wrap is Yes" keeps a message box out of the way until it applies, the same rule option sets already follow, and a hidden field is inert on the server, never required and never charged.
• New (Pro): file uploads are a field of their own now, so a product can ask for more than one, each optional or required, each revealable by a choice, and each with its own template link for the customer to download, fill in and send back. A product that used the earlier single artwork upload keeps it, now as one of these file fields, with nothing lost.
• Improved (Pro): the product options editor. The add controls sit together in one bar and the option set picker is searchable, so a shop with hundreds of sets finds one by typing. Deleting a group asks first when it holds anything and offers to keep its sets rather than take them along, on both the product panel and the option sets library. The remove control on a row or group stays visible instead of appearing only on hover.
• Fixed: on a shop running a VAT toggle plugin (both tax bases with a switch), the sticky bar that stands in for the add button could show the excluding and including totals at once until the switch was next flipped. It shows one figure now and follows the switch straight away.
• Fixed (Pro): the same on a product's own page. The options total, the chosen option's summary in a group header, and the sticky bars each carried both figures until a flip. Every one shows a single figure now and answers the switch the moment you use it.

4.15.2 - 2026-07-21

• Fixed: on a shop running a VAT toggle plugin (both tax bases with a switch), the sticky bar that stands in for the add button while it is off screen held its total in one basis and could run the two figures together. It answers the switch now, the same way the order tray does.
• Fixed (Pro): the product page options total and its sticky bar did the same on such a shop. Both carry the two bases now and follow the switch.
• Fixed (Pro): a chosen option's summary in the group header ran the two figures together there too. It mirrors the choice's own price now, so it reads and switches with the rest of the page.
• Fixed (Pro): the option sets page offers Import before the first set exists, so a shop arriving from another store can bring its library in as its first action.

4.15.1 - 2026-07-21

• Fixed (Pro): on a product's own page the option group titles (Printing, Design service) showed as a faint, tiny label that read as less important than the line beneath them. They are clear dark headings now, and the whole options panel holds a readable text size on themes that set a very small base font.
• Fixed (Pro): a product carrying several priced option sets stated each choice as the whole product price rather than the add-on it is. Each choice shows its surcharge now (for example +£35), while a product with a single priced set keeps stating the whole price.
• Fixed (Pro): on a shop running a price plugin that shows both tax bases (excluding and including VAT), an option's price could print the two figures run together (for example £58.29£69.95). The option price keeps its formatting now, the same as the rest of the shop.

4.15.0 - 2026-07-20

• New (Pro): Product options. Define an option set once (colours, sizes, weights, anything), attach it to any simple product, and the product offers those choices like a variable product without a single variation being created. Sets work inside bundles, where shoppers pick per unit, and on the product's own page. Ready-made starter sets included, and your library exports to a file so a second store imports it in one click.
• New (Pro): each bundle can narrow an option set (offer only some colours in this bundle, or switch a set off for it), and a fixed-price bundle chooses whether a dearer option is included in the price or charged on top.
• New (Pro): options can carry photos. Give the Blue option this product's blue photo and the product image swaps when a shopper picks it, exactly as variations do. A set can hold a default photo per option and each product can override it with its own.
• New (Pro): Suggest photos. One click proposes a photo for each option, from the product's own pictures first and then the media library's file names (RX500-BLK finds Black), each proposal shown with its reason. You review, change or skip any of them, and nothing applies until you choose to use them and update the product.
• New (Pro): option sets work on variable products too. The variations keep owning colour, size, stock and photos; sets ride along as extras on top (a design service, a fixing kit), each pick priced on top of the chosen variation's price.
• New (Pro): an option can reveal another set. One plain rule on the product, "Available only when Design service is Printed", and the follow-up set unlocks the moment the shopper makes that pick. A locked set is inert, never required and never charged, enforced on the server, not just disabled in the browser.
• New (Pro): an artwork upload on the product's own page. Optional or required, revealable by a choice, with a template link inside the upload box so customers download your template, fill it in and upload it back. Files land in the same protected storage bundle uploads use, and ordered files are kept safe from cleanup.
• New (Pro): measured sets. A set can price by size, weight or volume instead of a list: give it up to three dimensions and the maths follows, per metre, per square metre, per cubic metre, per kilogram or per litre, with a minimum charge. The sizes customers see are presets carrying their dimensions as plain facts (A2, 420 by 594 mm, with its price); typing only exists behind an explicit Custom size choice, and you can switch custom sizes off per set, enforced on the server. A preset with its own price beats the computed one.
• New (Pro): the product page tells one price story. Under the options, a running total reconciles everything: the product price plus the chosen options equals the total, live with every pick, matching the cart to the penny. On variable products the chosen variation's price joins the story the moment it is picked.
• New (Pro): the options panel reads like a configurator, and nothing hides. Every group is a header showing the current answer: Choose in your accent colour while it waits, the pick and its price once made, so nothing needs an asterisk. Every group stays visible, so the page never grows as choices are made, and a small line tells the shopper how many decisions the product holds. A follow-up group that depends on an earlier pick shows from the start, locked, with the reason to unlock it, rather than appearing out of nowhere. On phones, a slim bar keeps the running total and the add button in reach while the real button is off screen.
• New (Pro): attach a set to a whole category in one click, from the set's own page. Products that already offer it keep their charges, photos and rules exactly as they were, and it stays removable per product.
• New (Pro): the Order Builder. A colour by size matrix for bulk ordering, with three looks, volume discounts on the whole order, and per-line personalisation. Built for workwear, teams and wholesale buyers.
• New: the redesigned admin. Same tabs, same places, better signage: each bundle tab shows a live summary of what is set, Bundle Display is its own tab, and Bundle Promotions lists every offer as a row you switch on and off, so nothing is hidden and nothing has moved. The compatibility rules and personalisation field editors were rebuilt so a saved rule reads as a plain sentence and a saved field collapses to one line.
• New: "How to price it" shows all three pricing modes side by side with a plain explanation and a worked example of the chosen one, in the editor and in the wizard.
• New (Pro): the Share this build button now has its own switch per bundle. Bundles that already had it keep it on updating; new bundles start with it off until you choose.
• Improved: the guided wizard and the editor use the same controls for the same questions, buttons and inputs across the admin share one rounded style, and both BundleBoss tabs on a simple product carry the BundleBoss mark so you always know whose feature you are in.
• Improved: tooltips across the editor say what they need in half the words, and notices quote the real control names.
• Fixed: on a shop using a comma as the decimal separator, every money field truncated at the comma when saving, so a bundle priced 59,99 saved as 59. Prices, discounts, tiers, fees and option charges all keep their decimals now, whatever the shop's number format.
• Fixed: the Bundle discount arrows move by whole percents instead of a hundredth at a time. Typed decimals still work.
• Fixed: on a shop running a VAT toggle plugin (showing prices in both bases with a switch), the bundle's live total froze in one basis after the first pick and the order tray's line prices never answered the switch at all. Every price the page updates live now carries both bases, so the toggle works on bundles exactly as it does on the rest of the shop.
• Changed (Pro): the automatic "best value" badge on pack sizes has been removed. It returns in a later release as a choice: off unless you turn it on, saying whatever you want it to say.
• Changed: the storefront says Cart in source English; the UK English translation says basket, the same way WooCommerce handles it.
• Changed: "Hide item prices" now also applies to pick-one lists. It only worked on box choosers before, so if you ticked it on a pick-one bundle it starts working on this update.

4.14.1 - 2026-07-16

• Fixed: the order tray on a product page could print a bundle price twice, the excluding-tax and including-tax figures run together (for example £115.00£138.00), on a shop running a price plugin such as a VAT toggle. The tray now shows one price, in the tax basis your shop displays.
• Fixed: the "Build a new bundle" button in the order tray could stay invisible until you hovered it on some themes (Divi), because the theme forced its label white over a see-through button. It is a filled button now, so the label reads whatever colour the theme applies.

4.14.0 - 2026-07-15

• Fixed: bundle prices now follow your "Display prices in the shop" setting. On a shop that enters prices including VAT and displays them excluding it, a bundle printed the raw figure instead, so the headline price, the running total, the struck-through "was" and the "You save" line could each be in a different money. The saving was the worst of it: it took an ex-VAT subtotal off an inc-VAT full price, so a real saving of £6.40 showed as £30.68. Every figure on the page, in the order summary, in the basket and on the cart page now reads in the basis you chose. What you charge has not changed.
• Fixed (Pro): a personalisation fee was charged twice on a bundle priced with a set amount off, so the basket came out higher than the page said.
• Fixed (Pro): a sized box came to £0.00 on a bundle priced with a set amount off, giving the box away.
• Fixed (Pro): a Buy X Get Y offer on a bundle carrying a fee took too much off, because the fee inflated the reduction.
• Fixed (Pro): a Frequently Bought Together discount kept applying after the product it was attached to had been removed from the basket, so the companion stayed discounted on its own.
• Fixed (Pro): a whole-order fee such as a logo setup or a rush charge was applied to every bundle in the line instead of once for the order, so buying two of the same bundle paid the setup twice.
• Fixed (Pro): re-ordering a past order kept its gift wrap and whole-order options instead of dropping them, which had made the repeat order cheaper than the original.
• Fixed: a bundle that manages its own stock and has sold out now says "Out of stock". It used to show a working builder and a live Add to Cart, and only refuse at the last click, after the customer had configured the whole thing.
• Fixed: refunding a bundle now puts its components back on the shelf when "restock refunded items" is ticked. Component stock stayed down after every refund, so your inventory drifted lower over time and the shop eventually refused to sell things you had.
• Fixed: on currencies with no minor unit (yen, forint, krona), the product page total and the basket now agree, and prices no longer print a decimal part the currency does not have.
• Fixed: a draft bundle can no longer be bought.
• Fixed (Pro): a personalisation set to "once for the set" now says which item it applies to, so a customer can tell what they are naming.
• Fixed: on Divi, the Add to Cart button stays inside the order summary panel instead of sitting pushed to one edge, and the options panel no longer looks half empty when a slot has only two or three choices.
• Important: bundles now honour catalog mode. If you run a plugin that turns purchasing off, such as a request-a-quote, wholesale-only or login-to-see-prices plugin, your bundles now obey it like every other product on the shop. They did not before, so a bundle could still be bought on a shop where buying was meant to be switched off.
