Powerful Product Grouping for WooCommerce Stores

A grouped product is a very special type of product, whose grouped items are, in fact, remain as individual products with no available promoting or discounting method. To offer discounts for a grouped product, users will have to create coupons or vouchers then provide these to their customers to enter the code in the checkout step. WPC Grouped Products is a very intuitive plugin, you’ll know how to use it right without the need to read through any detailed documentation.

By default, WooCommerce only lets you create grouped products from simple ones, but WPC Grouped Product (Premium) takes it a bit further to let users add variable products or a specific variation to the list. This is proudly one of the most powerful features in our plugin, which makes any professional site builders or store owners feel excited enough to try it out immediately on their store.

Items in a grouped product list might share something in common, like they are all “bestsellers”, “pick of the day”, “new arrivals”, “favorite series”, etc. Grouped items are in a group, but they are treated as separate items, so the quantity of each can be adjusted freely: customers can buy all, some, or none of them based on their needs. Grouped items can be considered as optional ones, no default or required choices. By nature, a grouped product is merely a listing of individual items put together as a suggestion for buyers to consider buying more at once.

Useful Cases in Practice of WPC Grouped Products

Below are some common cases where users can utilize the WPC Grouped Product at its best:

• Sellers want to keep different versions/choices of a product as separate simple products to easily manage the stock instead of setting them as variations of a variable product.
• Products to be grouped together are distinct but still related or have something in common, like a series of textbooks and workbooks for all subjects in grade 1 (math, literature, etc.)
• Some products belong to quite a good number of categories at the same time, so they can be added to a grouped product to make different listings with freedom of choice for the buyers. For example, a CD can belong to categories and subcategories like “Best-sellers”, “Great Hits of the 90s”, “Best Songs of Michael Jackson”, etc.
• Predefined quantity is a mere suggestion of how many buyers should consider. It’s not obligatory to buy the whole deal with that combination of items. But after customers change the quantity and add it to the cart, the quantity display in the listing will return back to the default.
• Store owners can sell an item and offer another with a very low price or a freebie as incentives to encourage customers to buy.
• Any product that entails some kind of warranty, support or maintenance services can introduce the grouped products at a very low price to persuade buyers to spend a bit more just to increase the benefits they can get.
• Offer a buy 1 and get 1 for free or zero price main product with Bought Together of Force Sells deals. Buy 1, get 1 for free can be configured by adding 1 grouped product at normal price, 1 bought together (disabled custom quantity) or force sell product with new price at 0% or $0 to the deal.
• Give away 2 pieces of postcards for every order during Christmas (set 2 postcards at $0 or 0% as force sells items), they must be added to the cart for customers to purchase and checkout. The quantity of force sell items will always be synced with the main product’s quantity. That’s said if the quantity of the main product is 2, buyers can get 4 pieces of force sells postcards in the above example.

Zero Price Main Product

Free Gift & Giveaway Items: You might have grown very familiar with the situation when customers can get a free item as an added gift to another product. But with WPC Grouped Product, the case is different. Studies found, customers mostly make decisions based on their calculation of spending they can save and benefits they can get from the deal. By offering the main product at zero price, sellers make the deal more appealing to the buyers. And their customers, in fact, would think they can save more with this, so they’re more willing to say yes.

Flexible Combination with WPC Frequently Bought Together or WPC Force Sells: First of all, in order to combine with these plugins, from the admin dashboard, please navigate to WPClever >> Grouped Product >> find “Include main product” option then choose “Yes”. The main product with the price as $0 will be added alongside the Bought Together or Force Sell items to the cart.

This app is just what I needed! I needed to have a lot more grouped products on the one page so I can create my gift baskets and I purchased the premium version which is perfect for what I need. I am new to website creations and have had the pleasure of dealing with the support staff and developers, all of whom have been extremely accommodating and prompt in the service to me! So happy with my purchase and would highly recommend anyone looking to purchase this app/free version ??
