Multistep Product Bundles Lite for WooCommerce

Description

Multistep Product Bundles Lite for WooCommerce is the simple, fast way to add a guided “build your own” experience to your WooCommerce store. Tick one checkbox on any Simple product, configure as many steps as you like with the products customers can choose from, and the product page replaces the standard Add to Cart with a step-by-step wizard. Customers move forward one step at a time, pick a single product per step, see a running bundle total, and add everything to the cart as a single bundled line at the combined price.

Built by WPKoders, a WooCommerce Marketplace vendor. No tracking, no calls home, no account required.

Perfect for these scenarios

  • Pizza and food builders — base, toppings, drinks selected one step at a time, added as a single order line
  • Meal kit boxes — pick a protein, a side, and a sauce per step for a guided kit experience
  • Gift hampers and holiday bundles — wrap multiple curated products with a clean step-by-step UX
  • Subscription sampler boxes — let monthly subscribers configure their own sampler each cycle
  • Hardware and tech starter kits — choose the device, accessories, and warranty as separate steps
  • Beauty and skincare sets — cleanser, toner, moisturizer per step for a curated routine bundle

Key features

  • One-checkbox bundle setup — turn any existing Simple product into a multistep bundle from the product editor
  • Unlimited configurable steps with a title, optional description, and a short list of products per step
  • Live running bundle total updates on the product page as customers make choices
  • Single line in the cart — bundle parent + chosen children roll into one line at the combined price
  • Children listed under the bundle in cart, checkout review, order details, and order emails (one row per step)
  • Customer-facing Next / Back step wizard built on standard WooCommerce templates
  • WooCommerce Bundles overview page with setup guidance
  • Compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS)
  • Compatible with the WooCommerce Cart & Checkout Blocks
  • Lightweight, no bloat, loads only what is needed
  • No tracking, no analytics, no external calls

  2. Make sure WooCommerce is installed and active
  3. Edit any Simple product in the WooCommerce product editor

FAQ

Does this plugin require WooCommerce?

Yes. WooCommerce must be installed and active. An admin notice will appear if WooCommerce is not detected.

Does it create a new WooCommerce product type?

No. It uses a simple Bundle product checkbox on existing Simple products and stores the step configuration as post meta. That keeps it compatible with most themes, payment gateways, and other WooCommerce plugins out of the box.

How many steps can I have per bundle?

As many as you need — Lite has no step limit. Each step shows a single-select picker, so the customer chooses one product from the list you provide for that step. A multi-select picker (choosing more than one product per step) is available in Multistep Product Bundles Pro.

How does pricing work?

The line price is the bundle parent’s base price plus the price of each chosen child product. A running total updates live on the product page as the customer makes choices.

How are children shown in the cart and order?

The bundle appears as a single line item. The chosen children are listed underneath it (one row per step: “Step title: Child product name”) in the cart, the checkout review, the order details, and the WooCommerce order email.

Can the customer choose more than one product per step, or different quantities?

Not in Lite. A multi-select picker (choosing more than one product per step) and per-step quantity controls are available in Multistep Product Bundles Pro.

Can a step be optional, or shown only when another step is selected a certain way?

Not in Lite. Optional steps and conditional step logic are available in Multistep Product Bundles Pro.

Does it work with variable products inside steps?

Lite supports only simple products as step choices. Variable product support inside steps is available in Multistep Product Bundles Pro.

Can I use this for a pizza builder, meal kit, or gift box?

Yes — those are exactly the use cases Lite is designed for. Set the parent product as the bundle (for example, “Custom Pizza”, “Meal Kit Box”, “Holiday Gift Hamper”), configure each step with the list of options the customer can pick from, and the frontend wizard handles the rest.

Does it work with the WooCommerce Cart & Checkout Blocks?

Yes. Cart & Checkout Blocks compatibility is declared and the plugin hooks into the standard WooCommerce cart item display so bundle children render inside the blocks just like in the classic cart.

Is it compatible with High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS)?

Yes. HPOS compatibility is declared and the plugin uses the order CRUD API.

Is this plugin GDPR compliant?

Yes. The plugin does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. All settings are stored locally in your WordPress database. No cookies, no analytics, no calls home.

Does the plugin send any data to external servers?

No. Multistep Product Bundles Lite does not phone home, does not require an account, and does not include any tracking or analytics. See the External Services section below for full transparency.
