For sellers looking to maximize revenue on Amazon, virtual bundles offer one of the best ROI moves โ and most arenโt using them yet.

- Best practices and real examples
- Common pitfalls to avoid
๐งฉ What Are Amazon Virtual Bundles?
Virtual bundles allow brand-registered sellers to group 2โ5 ASINs into a new, shoppable product page.
But unlike traditional bundles:
- You donโt need to pre-package the items
- Inventory is pulled separately for each item at checkout
- Amazon handles the rest
๐ฆ Example: A shampoo, conditioner, and scalp brush โ shown as one product
๐ฅ Why Virtual Bundles Work
- Higher AOV (Average Order Value)
- Buyers see more value in bundled sets
- Increases total cart size with no added shipping costs
- Better Organic Rank
- Amazon treats virtual bundles as new ASINs
- More keywords, more indexing, and higher visibility
- Competitive Differentiation
- Harder for competitors to match
- Keeps customers inside your brand
- Fast Setup
- No new FNSKU or packaging needed
- Setup in minutes from Brand Registry tools

Requirements:
- Brand Registry
- Minimum of 2 ASINs

Steps:
- Go to Amazon Brand Registry > Virtual Bundles
- Select 2โ5 products

๐ฏ Best Practices for Virtual Bundles
โ Group complementary items

- Think in terms of โtheme,โ โsolution,โ or โroutineโ
โ Create custom imagery
- Show all items clearly
- Use infographics or lifestyle images if allowed
โ Optimize title & bullets
- Target keywords not ranking for individual ASINs
- Highlight value, convenience, or problem solved
โ Advertise your bundle
- Sponsored Products work โ just like any ASIN
- Consider using bundles in Amazon Posts
โ Use bundles to clear excess inventory
- Mix slower SKUs with faster movers
- Provide perceived savings
โ ๏ธ Common Mistakes to Avoid
โ Grouping unrelated items
โ Using only the lead ASINโs images
โ Setting bundle price too high relative to individual SKUs
โ Ignoring reviews โ bundles show cumulative feedback from all products
โ Creating bundles with out-of-stock SKUs
๐ง Use Cases for Virtual Bundles

โ๏ธ Add-on Boosters (core + accessory)
โ๏ธ Themed Packages (e.g. โGrill Master BBQ Kitโ)
๐งฎ Bundle Pricing Strategy
