How to build a mix and match bundle discount

A mix-and-match bundle discount lets customers build their own bundle from the collections you choose and gives them a discount when they complete it. Once you've installed Simple Discounts, you can create one directly from your Shopify Discounts tab.

Examples

Build your own 6-pack from 24 options at 10% off.
Choose 2 items from Collection A and 2 items from Collection B at 20% off.
Build a gift box: 3 from Olive & Vinegar, 2 from Cheese, and 1 from Meat at 15% off.

Step 1: Create the discount

Go to Discounts in your Shopify admin > click Create discount > click Mix-and-match bundle discount.

Step 2: Set up the discount

In the mix-and-match bundle discount editor:

Add a title and choose discount code or automatic.
Set up your selection groups. Each group has a Quantity and the collections customers can pick from (up to 50). Customers must add exactly that many items from the group. You can add up to 5 groups, for example, 3 from Olive & Vinegar, 2 from Cheese, and 1 from Meat.
Set the Discounted percentage. It applies to every item in the bundle.
Optional: exclude specific products, limit the discount to tagged customers, and set combinations and active dates.
Click Save discount.

Add your discount details and selection group

Step 3: Test your discount

Add eligible products to your cart from your online store, and make sure the cart includes the exact quantity from each group. The discount is added automatically or with a discount code, depending on the method you chose in the editor.

Your customer can see the discount applied in their cart, and you can see it in your Shopify admin under Orders, where the discount is added to each eligible product.

How Burton shows off their mix-and-match deal

Customers can only use a deal they know about. These ideas help them find it and understand it:

These promotional elements ensure that customers are fully aware of the mix-and-match discount promotion, understand the promotion's details, and recognize which products qualify.

Site banner: show the offer on every page, say clearly which products qualify, and add a call to action that links to a collection of the eligible items. Homepage banner: show the discount value with a short message, such as "Complete your perfect setup." A countdown adds urgency for a limited time offer.

Collection page: list all eligible products in one collection so customers don't have to search for them.

Product grid and product page: repeat the same wording on both, for example "Buy 2 or more, get 30% off.

Checkout: the discount name and savings amount show at checkout, so use a clear title in the editor.
