How Bundles fit into the Shopify storefront

Overview

Smart Bundles integrate directly with your Shopify storefront through the Liva 7 Bundle Block. Once added to your theme, this block becomes the delivery point for all bundle suggestions, whether AI‑generated or manually created. Bundles inherit your theme styling by default, or you can switch to manual styling for full control.

This article explains how bundles appear on the storefront, how they adapt to context and how they work alongside your existing design.

Bundles appear through the Liva 7 Bundle Block

All bundles, AI or manual, are displayed through a single theme block:
the Liva 7 Bundle Block.

You can add this block to any section that supports dynamic blocks. Once placed, it becomes the location where bundles appear whenever they are eligible.

If no bundle is eligible, the block remains empty or hidden depending on your theme.

Theme styling or manual styling

The Liva 7 Bundle Block includes a styling toggle that lets you choose how bundles should look.

1. Inherit theme styling

Bundles automatically adopt your theme's:

• fonts
• colours
• spacing
• button styles
• headings
• layout rules

This keeps bundles visually consistent with your storefront.

2. Manual styling

Switching to manual styling unlocks customisation options inside the theme editor, allowing you to adjust:

• colours
• fonts
• spacing
• borders
• button styles
• layout and padding

This gives you full control over the appearance of your bundles.

Bundles adapt to page context

Bundles behave differently depending on where the block is placed. The same block can appear on multiple pages, but the bundle will change based on context.

Examples:

• on product pages, bundles focus on complementary items
• on collection pages, bundles highlight category aligned combinations
• on the cart page, bundles offer frictionless add ons
• on the homepage, bundles may surface trending or high value sets

Context determines which bundle is most relevant.

Bundles update in real time

Smart Bundles adapt instantly as the shopper interacts with your store. If behaviour changes, the bundle can change too, without reloading the page.

Examples:

• viewing a product triggers complementary bundles
• adding an item to cart updates bundle eligibility
• switching categories changes bundle relevance
• returning visitors may see curated or premium bundles

This creates a dynamic, responsive experience.

Bundles work alongside widgets and Smart Content

Bundles are one part of the wider personalisation system. They work alongside:

• product recommendation widgets
• Smart Content messages
• behavioural triggers
• contextual logic

Examples:

• a reassurance message may appear above a bundle
• a widget may appear below a bundle to reinforce relevance
• Smart Content may guide the shopper toward the bundle

Together, they create a cohesive, personalised journey.

Bundles respect your theme layout

Because bundles live inside a theme block, they cannot break your layout. They follow your theme's spacing, structure and responsive rules.

This prevents:

• layout shifts
• broken sections
• unexpected gaps
• visual inconsistencies

Bundles feel like a natural part of your storefront.

Bundles adapt to inventory and availability

If a product in a bundle goes out of stock, Smart Bundles automatically:

• remove the unavailable item
• replace it with a suitable alternative
• suppress the bundle if no valid combination remains

This ensures shoppers only see bundles they can actually purchase.

Bundles support long term storefront consistency

Smart Bundles are designed to work with any modern Shopify theme. As your theme evolves, bundles continue to adapt without requiring redesigns.

They maintain consistency by:

• inheriting theme styling
• respecting section structure
• adapting to layout changes
• remaining compatible with theme updates

This ensures your AOV strategy remains stable over time.

Bundles enhance your overall AOV strategy

Bundles are a core part of your personalisation ecosystem. They work alongside behavioural logic, widgets and Smart Content to create a storefront that feels intelligent, supportive and aligned with each shopper's journey.

Bundles increase AOV by presenting combinations that feel relevant, valuable and easy to add.
