# BYOB (Mix & Match)

## Introduction to BYOB Bundles

**BundleSuite’s Build Your Own Bundle (BYOB)** lets your customers mix and match products to create their own custom bundles — driving higher engagement and increasing average order value. These bundles appear in a full-page layout, giving customers a spacious and interactive experience to handpick their favorite items.

You can now also add a **“Free Gift”** tier to your bundles, allowing you to offer specific products at no cost when customers meet certain conditions within the bundle.

We support three flexible BYOB formats — all with built-in **Mix-and-Match functionality** for maximum freedom and conversion.

***

#### 🔄 What is Mix-and-Match?

**Mix-and-Match** gives your customers the freedom to:

* Combine **any products or variants** in a bundle
* **Repeat selections** (e.g., 2 of the same soap)
* Mix products across **categories or collections**

Whether you're selling snacks, skincare, or apparel — customers love the freedom to build their own combo.
