You have probably seen bundle-sells before: Much like a cross-sell, a bundle-sell is an offer to purchase a helpful add-on, along with the currently viewed product.
Compared to cross-sells, bundle-sells are easier to discover and convert immediately. This makes them ideal for recommending highly related, optional items that are:
- frequently bought with the viewed product;
- lower in cost; and
- usually high in margin.
Product Bundles lets you add “frequently bought together” recommendations to any product from the Product Data > Linked Products tab.
The presentation of bundle-sells on the single-product page is optimized for WooCommerce. In most small- to medium-size WooCommerce stores, bundle-style recommendations convert better on average when offered above the add-to-cart button:
- Bundle-sells are easier to discover this way, because they are more tightly coupled with the main product.
- Adding new page elements and sections to display bundle-sells makes them easier to miss or ignore. Clutter is not a WooCommerce feature.

Remarks
