Create & publish a build‑a‑box bundle
1. Start a new bundle from a template 0:00
- In the app, click Create Bundle from the left panel.
- Start with a template and choose Build-a-Box.
- The editor is designed to feel similar to Shopify's editor for easier navigation.
2. Understand the editor layout 0:30
- The top toolbar includes the desktop/mobile preview toggle, Preview, Save changes, and Publish/unpublish controls.
- The center canvas updates in real time as you make changes.
- The left and right panels control bundle structure and styling.
3. Add a Build Your Box step 1:01
- Click Steps to manage the bundle flow.
- Select the Build Your Box step to edit its settings.
- Rename the step - e.g. Cookie Box.
- Choose the product source as Collection.
- Click Pick a Collection and select your collection from Shopify.
4. Configure the product grid layout 2:17
- Adjust how many product cards appear per row.
- Use the styling panel to change colors, card radius, button radius, and cards per row for desktop and mobile.
- Recommended setup in the demo: Desktop: 3 cards per row, Mobile: Automatic.
- You can also change the card size when using automatic mode.
5. Set step behavior and product selection rules 4:17
- Allow customers to select multiple products so they can build a box.
- Keep the step required so they must complete it.
- Leave the quantity selector on so customers can add multiple of the same item.
- Leave quantity limits blank for now.
- Set products per page to blank so everything displays in one grid instead of a Load More button.
6. Customize customer-facing text and helper content 7:03
- Update the instruction text - e.g. Pick as many cookie flavors as you desire!
- Rename the review label - e.g. Review your cookie box.
- Leave Skip this step off for a build-a-box flow.
- Leave variant/details and dropdown options off if your products don't need them.
- Add a tooltip - title: Pick your favorites; body: Add as many as you would like. You can add more than one of your favorite flavors to the box.
- Optionally add a Learn More button if needed.
7. Add a banner image for branding 11:14
- Add a banner image to make the bundle feel more branded.
- Copy the image URL from Shopify Files and paste it into the banner image field.
- Optional, but it creates a stronger visual experience for customers.
8. Configure bundle-level settings 12:58
- Name the bundle clearly (e.g. CookieBox) for easier tracking and analytics.
- You can optionally assign the bundle to a specific Shopify page.
- In the demo, the bundle is added using the bundle ID in the Shopify editor.
9. Set the build-a-box pricing structure 13:57
- Choose the discount type Build a Box.
- Add box sizes and fixed prices - e.g. 6 cookies = $10, 12 cookies = $18.
- You can add more sizes later, such as 24 for larger bundles.
- Leave minimum and maximum item limits blank for now.
- Leave the step progress style as the default.
- Set the cart property name (e.g. cookie box).
- Leave product-page display and pre-selection options turned off.
10. Add upsell add-ons to increase AOV 17:29
- Create an add-on group - e.g. Baked Goods.
- Set the trigger products to All items in the step.
- Add suggested add-ons such as a blueberry muffin or chocolate brownie.
- Set the pop-up title - e.g. Get Our Best-Selling Baked Goods.
- The extra discount option is optional - the demo leaves it off.
- Click Done when finished.
11. Save and publish the bundle 19:47
- Click Save changes, then Publish so the bundle goes live.
- Copy the bundle ID from the bundle settings for use in Shopify.
12. Add the bundle to a Shopify page 20:08
- Open the Shopify theme editor and click Add a section.
- Under Apps, choose Presto Bundles.
- Paste the bundle ID into the field.
- Save the page and preview the bundle on the storefront.
13. Review the live bundle and adjust width if needed 21:23
- Check the live bundle layout.
- If the content feels too narrow or text is cut off, return to the app editor.
- Increase the width - e.g. from 1200px to 1400px.
- Save again and refresh the storefront to confirm.
14. Test the customer experience 22:48
- Add items to the box and watch the pricing update in real time.
- The bundle shows progress toward the fixed-price thresholds (e.g. 6 for $10, 12 for $18).
- The UI shows how many more items are needed to unlock the next box size.
- Review the box and confirm the add-on pop-up appears - customers can accept or decline add-ons before adding the bundle to cart.
15. Restrict to exact box sizes 25:06
- Return to the bundle settings and turn on Restrict to exact box sizes.
- Save changes and refresh the storefront.
- Customers must now hit the exact box thresholds to unlock the fixed price - no partial box pricing.
