Product Bundle Pricing Calculator
A bundle has to do two jobs at once: save the buyer enough to buy it, and leave you more than the parts would. This calculator prices both sides of that deal.

What this tool does
Enter up to three components with their prices and costs, the bundle discount and the fees on the bundle sale. The calculator shows the bundle price, what the buyer saves against the separate prices, your margin on the bundle and the margin you would have kept selling the parts separately — so you can see whether the bundle actually pays.
Bundles fail in two directions: a discount so deep the bundle pays less than the parts, and a discount so shallow nobody buys it. The two margins side by side are the test — the bundle must beat the parts on margin, or match them while selling more units.
Try it
Waiting. Enter at least two components, the discount and the fees, then press Calculate.
How it works
The separate price is the sum of the component prices, and the separate cost is the sum of the component costs. The bundle price is the separate price reduced by the discount percentage, and the buyer saving is the difference. Fees are the bundle price multiplied by the fee percentage plus the fixed fee, and the margin is the bundle price minus fees minus the separate cost.
The comparison figure — the margin selling the parts separately — applies the same fee percentage to the separate price and charges the fixed fee once per component, because each part would have been its own sale. The bundle wins when its margin beats that figure, or matches it while moving more units.
Assumptions and limitations
A bundle is a pricing decision, not a discount reflex.
- The discount must leave the bundle margin at or above the separate margin, unless the bundle genuinely sells more units. A bundle that pays less per sale and sells the same number of units is a pay cut.
- Fees are entered by you as a percentage plus a fixed fee. Use the fee stack of the channel you actually sell on.
- Component costs must be real. A bundle built on guessed costs hides the loss until the month’s figures arrive.
- The buyer saving is shown against the separate prices. If the components were never sold separately, the saving is a claim, not a fact — say so in the listing.
Worked example
Example (illustrative inputs, not a real bundle). Three components priced 20, 15 and 10, costing 8, 6 and 4, 15% bundle discount, 10% fees plus 0.30 fixed:
| Item | Figure |
|---|---|
| Separate prices total | 45.00 |
| Bundle price at 15% off | 38.25 |
| Buyer saves | 6.75 |
| Margin on the bundle | 16.13 (42.1%) |
| Margin selling the parts separately | 17.05 |
Frequently asked questions
How big should a bundle discount be?
Big enough to change the decision, small enough to keep the margin. The calculator shows both margins — if the bundle margin falls below the separate margin, the discount is too deep unless the bundle sells meaningfully more units.
Why compare with selling the parts separately?
Because that is the alternative. A bundle that pays less per sale than the parts is only worth it if it moves more units — and “more units” needs evidence, not hope.
Should the bundle include a product that does not sell alone?
Often yes — that is the point of a bundle. A slow component rides on a strong one, and the bundle price makes the slow one move. The margin test still applies to the whole bundle.
Do fees change for a bundle?
Yes, in your favour: one sale means one fixed fee instead of one per component. The calculator charges the fixed fee once for the bundle and once per component in the comparison, which is the honest difference.
