Increase sales in Prestashop using the Bundle Discount Module

Prestashop has a built in pack feature. You can create a product, and make it a pack instead of a normal product. A pack is multiple products bundled into one. But the built in pack feature lacks a lot of features, making it pointless to use.

For example it does not use the stock from the original products added, whenever a pack is purchased the quantity of individual products remain the same, and the stock for the pack is kept separately. You would have to either keep a separate stock of products in packs or update the stock manually.

Another thing is that packs are displayed as a separate product. You could create a pack, but when a customer adds the products in the pack individually, they don't get the bundle price. Which also means that there is no cross selling feature. People can browse a product which you also placed in a pack, and won't know about the pack price unles they see the packed product.

The pack does not let you set the attribute of the products in the pack either.

 

With all these in mind, I have developed a bundle discounts module. This module let's create bundles, by combining multiple products, with the option to set the attribute. When a customer orders all the products set by you, they automatically get the discount. These bundles are also displayed under each product that is in the bundle. The customers also see these bundles in the cart summary page, when any of the products they are purchasing is in a bundle.

The module also let's you create bundles of categories. You can for example set a bundle consisting of laptops and ipods categories. When a customer buys any ipod along with any laptop, they get the discount.

The product discounts have the priority over the category discounts. And the discount with the highest amount is checked first. But despite this, it is best to use one product in only one bundle.

Another thing you need to consider buying this module is that you will probably have to change the strings used to better target your customer base.

 

You can check the module in action in the demo page:
