How to create product bundles on the Spotlight theme (checkout-safe)
Create checkout-safe product bundles on Shopify's free Spotlight theme — fast setup for clothing and quick-launch stores. BOGO and 3-for-2, enforced at checkout.
Spotlight is a simple free Shopify theme built for quick launches and clothing stores. Its whole appeal is speed and clarity: a clean, straightforward layout that gets a store live fast. That same simplicity makes it one of the quickest themes to add offers to. This guide shows how to create product bundles on the Spotlight theme without slowing that launch down — and keeping every offer checkout-safe, so the price shown is the price charged.
Because Spotlight is a free Shopify theme, you start from a clean, section-based layout with no proprietary upsell engine to work around.
Two ways to bundle on Spotlight
Shopify’s native Bundles app groups different products into one fixed purchase — a starter outfit or a two-piece set. It’s free and checkout-safe, but rigid: fixed contents, its own product page, and no quantity logic like “buy 2, get 1 free.”
A product-page bundle widget handles quantity offers on the existing product page — BOGO, 3-for-2, or a volume tier — which is exactly what most apparel stores want. That’s the job of the free Profit Flow AOV Bundle: more units per order, no new pages to build.
Adding the offer block on Spotlight
Spotlight is section- and block-based, so no code is required — and setup is genuinely fast.
- Install Profit Flow AOV Bundle from the Shopify App Store.
- Open the Spotlight theme editor and choose a product template.
- In the main product section, select Add block and add the app block.
- Position it just under the price or Add-to-cart button.
- Configure your deal — a BOGO or 3-for-2 works well for apparel basics, or add a volume discount for bigger carts.
Spotlight doesn’t ship a native bundle or upsell widget, so there’s nothing to disable to avoid duplicate offers. Keep it to one clear offer per product so the page stays as clean as Spotlight intends.
Keep it checkout-safe
The risk with many bundle tools is that the discount only lives in storefront JavaScript. A shopper edits the cart, refreshes, or arrives via a direct link, and the “free” item gets charged — or given away when it shouldn’t be. On fast-moving apparel volumes, those errors add up quietly.
Profit Flow enforces every offer with a Shopify Function, the same server-side discount engine Shopify uses for its own promotions. The math is recalculated at checkout, so it can’t be tricked. What the shopper sees is what they pay — no refunds, no mismatched orders.
Wrapping up
Spotlight’s speed is its strength, and adding a checkout-safe bundle keeps that promise: a couple of clicks, one clear offer, guaranteed pricing. For the bigger picture, see our hub on how to create product bundles on Shopify.

FAQ

- Where does the widget mount on Spotlight?
- In the main product section of the product template, added via the theme editor. Spotlight's straightforward layout makes placement near the buy button quick.
- Is the bundle enforced at checkout on Spotlight?
