Offer a custom box with subscription
You can offer your customers the option to compose their own box by selecting the products they want to receive at a given frequency as part of their subscription.
You can configure a promotional offer based on the number of products selected. Example:
- 1 product selected = -10%
- 2 products selected = -15%
- 3 products selected = -20%
- 4 products selected = -25%
The customer selects their products using categories if needed (a product is linked to a category), chooses the frequency at which they want to receive their box, and completes their order.
Prerequisite: You must have created the product pages for products that will be available at the composition step. You can refer to the following article: Sell a product individually
