No one has rated this plugin on WordPress.org yet. That is a statement about the ratings page, not about the plugin — plenty of well-kept plugins never collect them.
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:
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.

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
- WordPress 6.4+
- WooCommerce 8.0+
- PHP 8.0+
Privacy
BundleBoss does not collect, store or transmit any personal data of its own.
- Customers’ bundle selections (which products, quantities and options they picked) are stored only as part of their cart and order: standard WooCommerce order data under your control, removed whenever you erase the order.
- Shareable build links encode product choices in the URL itself; nothing is stored server-side and the links contain no personal information.
- The plugin sets no advertising or tracking cookies.
Third-party services
The free version of BundleBoss does not connect to any external service or send any data off your site.
BundleBoss Pro is a separate, paid plugin that uses Freemius for checkout, licensing and updates. None of that is included in this free version.
Install BundleBoss, then go to Products → Create a bundle. The guided wizard takes you from picking products to a published product bundle in about two minutes, with no code. Prefer the full editor? Create a product, choose the Bundle type, and set your items, pricing and promotions on their own tabs.
Yes. A build a box (mix and match) product lets customers fill a box from a pool you choose, with a target size, per-product limits, and a live count and total (any 6 chocolates, any 4 candles). That’s a Pro feature. On any bundle, customers also pick the size and colour of every item and buy the lot as one order.
Yes, that’s the core use case. Customers pick a variation for every unit, restricted to the options you allow per bundle item.
Yes. Virtual items (services, licence keys you fulfil yourself) just work. Downloadable items deliver their files like any normal purchase: permissions are granted when the order is paid, the customer gets the links in the order email and under My Account → Downloads, and a refund cuts access automatically.
Yes. Component (and variation) stock is reduced when the bundle sells and restored if the order is cancelled or refunded. Stock is also validated during configuration, at add-to-cart, and again at checkout.
Yes. Each bundle can use either a percentage discount off the sum of the chosen items, or a fixed price that never changes regardless of the customer’s choices.
Yes. The configurator inherits your theme’s fonts automatically, and every colour it uses is exposed as a CSS variable. Set a handful of values in Appearance → Customize → Additional CSS and the whole interface follows your brand:
:root {
--bb-accent: #c2410c; /* step highlights */
--bb-ink: #1e2a4a; /* headlines and the total bar */
--bb-surface: #fffdf8; /* cards */
--bb-border: #e8e0d0;
}
The full token list is documented at the top of the plugin’s bundle.css.
Yes. The configurator fires a JavaScript event, bundle_boss:build_changed, after every change the customer makes. The event detail carries the whole build: which products and variations are picked, quantities, and the running totals. Listen for it, derive whatever your store cares about, and render the result into the container printed by the bundle_boss_after_summary action:
document.addEventListener( 'bundle_boss:build_changed', function ( e ) {
if ( ! e.detail.complete ) { return; }
// e.detail.items gives [ { productId, qty, units: [ { variationId, attributes } ] } ]
myPanel.textContent = 'Total weight: ' + myWeightFor( e.detail.items ) + ' kg';
} );
A PC store renders performance estimates, a hamper store calories, a ski shop carry weight. The event works on every bundle, free and Pro alike.
Yes, both. The classic shortcode pages and the block-based Cart & Checkout are fully supported: bundle pricing, the selections summary, stock protection and order details all work identically, and the progress-to-discount nudge appears in the block cart too. Block themes (Full Site Editing) are also tested.
By default, no: bundle products and their configuration are deliberately kept, so reinstalling restores everything. If you want uninstalling to remove all bundles and settings, switch on “Delete all BundleBoss data when the plugin is uninstalled” under WooCommerce → BundleBoss (download an export first, on the same page).
Yes. WooCommerce → BundleBoss exports every bundle (items, choice pools, rules, pricing and promotions) as one JSON file. Importing matches products by SKU, then slug, so the file survives the move to a site where product IDs differ; anything that can’t be matched is reported, never guessed.
Yes. Bundle settings copy to translations, slot labels are translatable per language, and product/term references are mapped to the language being browsed.
