Different Bundle Types: Quantity Break, BXGY Discount and Bundle Upsell
Learn about the three main bundle types in V Bundles and how to use them effectively for your store.
When setting up bundle deals in V Bundles, merchants choose from three discount types, each serving distinct purposes for different promotional strategies.
1. Quantity Break
Purpose: Offers tiered discounts based on quantity — ideal for volume incentives or BOGO-style offers.
Example use cases:
- Buy 2 → get 15% off
- Buy 3 → get 20% off
- Buy 1 Get 1 at 50% off
Configuration options:
- Set specific per-item discounts (percentage or fixed amount)
- Define custom total prices for selected quantities
Best for: Upselling multiple units of the same product.
2. BXGY Discount (Buy X Get Y)
Purpose: Creates classic "Buy 2, Get 1 Free"-style promotions.
Setup: Define the Buy quantity (X) and Get quantity (Y).
Key distinction: This type automatically calculates the deal price and cannot be manually adjusted, unlike Quantity Break.
Advantage: Deals display in Shopify's cart and checkout as free items, potentially boosting conversions through clear value messaging.
3. Bundle Upsell
Purpose: Offers custom product bundles combining different products or variants — excellent for accessory packs or cross-sells.
Example: Bundle a phone case with screen protector, charger, and cleaning kit at a discount.
Features:
- Hand-pick specific products/variants
- Set individual discounts per bundle item
Best for: Increasing average order value through strategic product combinations.
Shared Features Across All Types

- Free gift products or upsell suggestions
