More products. Bigger orders. Better profit potential. All wrapped up in one easy-to-sell gift set.
The holiday shopping season is here, and shoppers are looking for something special. They want thoughtful gifts, beautifully coordinated sets, and easy ways to check everyone off their list.
For online retailers, that means one thing: a big opportunity to turn everyday products into irresistible holiday gifts.
Introducing Bundles, the newest feature from Printed Mint, designed to help you sell more, increase your average order value, and make holiday gifting easier than ever.
With Bundles, you can combine multiple Printed Mint products into one gift-worthy collection, sell them through a single listing in your store, and let us handle the rest.
You create the magic. We handle the making, packing, and shipping.
Why Bundles Could Be Your Holiday Best Seller
Think about the last time you shopped for a gift. Was it easier to choose a single mug, or a beautifully coordinated cozy morning set featuring a mug, a candle, and a matching tea towel?
That's the power of bundling.
Instead of selling individual products, you're creating an experience. A thoughtful, ready-to-gift collection that feels more special, more intentional, and more valuable to your customer.
And the best part? You're creating an opportunity to earn more from every order.
1. Increase Your Average Order Value
Why sell one product when you can sell three?
Bundling encourages shoppers to purchase multiple coordinating items in a single transaction. A customer who might have spent $18 on a mug could be delighted to discover a $49 gift set featuring that same mug alongside a candle and tea towel.
That's more revenue from one customer, without needing three separate sales.
2. Create More Value and More Profit Potential
Customers aren't just buying individual products. They're buying convenience, thoughtful curation, and a gift that feels complete.
That added value gives you an opportunity to position your bundles at an attractive retail price while protecting your margins.
With Printed Mint's Bundle Builder, you can see your product costs, enter your intended selling price, and instantly view your estimated profit before you launch.
Less guesswork. Smarter pricing. Better opportunities to grow your bottom line.
3. Make Holiday Shopping Effortless
Holiday shoppers are busy. They're shopping for teachers, coworkers, neighbors, friends, family, and everyone in between.
Give them a reason to choose your store by doing the gift-curating for them.
A beautifully styled gift set with a compelling name like The Cozy Christmas Collection or A Little Something for You can turn a handful of everyday products into something customers can't wait to give.
4. Sell More Without Adding More Work
Here's where Bundles really shine.
When a customer purchases a bundle from your connected store, Printed Mint recognizes its unique bundle SKU and automatically adds the individual products to your order.
We produce every item, package the products together, and ship them in one box directly to your customer.
No purchasing inventory upfront. No assembling gift sets at your kitchen table. No juggling multiple shipments.
Just one seamless fulfillment experience, powered by Printed Mint.

Let's Talk Profit: The Magic of Bundling
One of the biggest opportunities with Bundles is the ability to build higher-value offerings while keeping a close eye on your costs.
Here's a simple hypothetical example:
| Single Product | Curated Gift Bundle | |
|---|---|---|
| Retail price | $20.00 | $54.00 |
| Product cost | $10.00 | $28.00 |
| Gross product profit | $10.00 | $26.00 |
That's $16 more gross product profit from one customer order.
Of course, your actual profits will depend on your products, pricing, shipping, and other selling expenses. But the opportunity is clear: thoughtfully curated gift sets can increase the value of every sale.
And with Printed Mint's Bundle Builder, you'll have your estimated product profit displayed as you create each collection.
Even better? Inner Circle Savings members will see their membership discounts reflected in their bundle costs, making it easier to understand their potential margins.
How to Create Your First Bundle in Minutes
We've made building bundles simple, so you can spend less time managing products and more time dreaming up your next best seller.
Step 1: Build Your Bundle
Head to My Products โ Bundles in your Printed Mint dashboard.
Search your existing products, select the items you want to include, and choose the quantity of each.
As you build, you'll see your total product cost, estimated profit based on your retail price, and estimated shipping to the contiguous United States.
Step 2: Copy Your Bundle SKU
Once you save your bundle, Printed Mint generates a unique SKU beginning with PMB.
Simply copy the SKU to connect your gift set to its individual products.
Step 3: Create One Listing in Your Store
Create a new product listing in Shopify, Etsy, or your other connected store.
Add your product photos, write an irresistible description, choose your retail price, and enter your Printed Mint bundle SKU.
Set your shipping rate and available quantity, and you're ready to go!
Step 4: Sell It. We'll Make It.
When a customer orders your bundle, the order flows into Printed Mint automatically.
We identify every product included in the set, create each item, pack them together, and ship the completed order in one package.
One listing. One order. One shipment. So many possibilities.
And Yes, Bundles Can Help You Save on Shipping, Too!
Because your items ship together, bundles qualify for Printed Mint's multi-item shipping rates.
The first product ships at the standard rate, while additional eligible items are charged at the lower add-on rate.
You'll see an estimated shipping cost in the Bundle Builder, helping you plan your pricing and shipping charges before your gift set goes live.
Shipping is charged when each order is fulfilled, just as it is with your regular Printed Mint orders.
A Few More Reasons to Love Bundles
Holiday trends change, and your product offerings should be able to change with them.
With Bundles, you're in control.
Edit anytime: Add products, remove items, or adjust quantities. Any pending draft orders containing that bundle will update to reflect your changes.
Create seasonal collections: Launch limited-edition holiday gift sets and archive them when the season ends.
Bring your own creative vision: Use styled flat lays, lifestyle photography, and branded product descriptions to make your bundles uniquely yours.
No inventory commitment: Products are made on demand as your customers order.
A little heads-up: Bundles are currently in beta! For now, you'll manage your bundle listing photos, shipping settings, and inventory quantities directly in your connected store. Automatic bundle and inventory syncing is on the way.
Your Holiday Sales Strategy Just Got a Whole Lot More Interesting
The holidays are about more than selling products. They're about creating moments, sparking joy, and helping customers find the perfect gift.
And for your business, they're an opportunity to increase order values, introduce creative new offerings, and make every sale work a little harder.
Start with a signature holiday collection. Experiment with a few different gift themes. Pair best sellers with complementary products. Create limited-edition bundles that customers can only shop during the season.
You might just discover your next holiday best seller.
The best part? You don't need more inventory, more space, or more hours in your day to make it happen.
You just need a little creativity and Printed Mint Bundles.
