Create and edit bundles with Square for Retail

Who is this article for?
  • Sellers with general items and inventory permissions. Set permissions in the Square Dashboard.
  • Square for Retail Plus, and Premium subscribers.
  • About bundles

    You can bundle complementary items together to sell for a single unit price ― often discounted. For example, you could sell a pasta dinner bundle that includes a jar of pasta sauce and a bag of pasta, or you could sell a bedding bundle that includes sheets and pillow cases. 

    You can use bundles to boost sales, cut shipping costs, and help introduce new products. You can track inventory on individual items whether they're sold separately or in bundles.

    Before you begin

    • Create a bundle by adding up to 20 items, referred to as components. 

    • You can create bundles from your Square Dashboard only.

    • You can edit bundles from your Square Dashboard or your Retail POS app.

    • You cannot bundle existing items, only during new item creation.

    • You can only add or remove components from a bundle in Square Dashboard.

    • Bundles can be sold from Square Point of Sale, the Retail POS app, and Square Online.

    You are not able to use item modifiers when creating a bundle nor restrict the number of bundles available for sale, even if you have the inventory to sell more. Bundles can only be sold if all components are available from the same location.
