Summarize this article with AI
Kaching Bundles doesn't provide a free plan for live stores. Here is what it costs, how its revenue limits work, and a free alternative.
Kaching Bundles is one of the most popular bundle apps on the Shopify App Store. It has a 5.0 rating from nearly 6,000 reviews. So when merchants start looking for a way to add quantity breaks to their product pages, it is often the first app they find. The next question is usually the same: is there a free plan?
The short answer: not for live stores. Below we cover what Kaching Bundles costs today, how its revenue limits work, when it is still worth paying for, and a free alternative if your budget is tight.

Does Kaching Bundles have a free plan?
As of September 2026, Kaching Bundles is free only on Shopify development stores, the test stores that Shopify Partners use to build shops before launch. On a development store, every feature is unlocked and there is no revenue limit.
Once your store is live and taking orders, you need a paid plan. Every paid plan comes with a 7-day free trial, so you can test the app before you are charged.
Some older reviews and blog posts still mention a Kaching free plan with "generous limits". That no longer matches the app's Shopify App Store listing. Check the current listing(opens in a new tab) before you plan your budget around a free tier.
Kaching Bundles pricing in 2026
Kaching charges according to the revenue its bundles generate, not your store's total sales. Each plan has a ceiling:
Plan | Monthly | Annual | Bundle revenue included |
|---|---|---|---|
Starter | $14.99 | $131.88 (27% off) | Up to $1,000 |
Scale | $29.99 | $263.88 (27% off) | Up to $5,000 |
Pro | $59.99 | $539.88 (25% off) | Up to $10,000 |
Development stores | Free | n/a | Unlimited |
Prices from the Kaching Bundles Shopify App Store listing, 16 September 2026.
All three paid plans include the same core features: unlimited bundle deals, several widget layouts, design customization and live chat support. The main thing that changes between plans is how much bundle revenue you can generate before you move up a tier.
This model is fair in one respect: you pay more only when the app earns you more. It also means your bill rises as your bundles succeed. A store making $8,000 a month from bundles pays $59.99 a month, which is $719.88 a year on monthly billing.
What you get with Kaching Bundles
Kaching's price buys a mature, well-supported product. According to its listing and website, it includes:
- Quantity breaks and volume discounts, with percentage, fixed-amount or set-price discounts
- Fixed bundles and mix & match bundles
- Buy X Get Y (BOGO) deals
- Free gifts with bundles
- A "Complete the bundle" upsell on the product page
- Built-in A/B testing for bundle offers
- Revenue analytics
- Multi-currency and multi-language storefront support
- An admin in 9 languages
- Support for Shopify POS and Hydrogen, plus page builders like GemPages, PageFly, EComposer and Foxify
It also has the Built for Shopify badge, Shopify's own mark for apps that meet its standards for performance and design.
If you rely on A/B testing, run a store with physical point of sale, or build your pages with GemPages or PageFly, Kaching is a strong choice. It is worth the monthly fee.
When a free alternative makes more sense
A paid bundle app from day one isn't right for every store. A free alternative is worth a look if:
- You're just starting out. You want to test whether bundles lift your average order value before you commit to a monthly fee.
- Your bundle revenue is growing fast. Tiered pricing means each jump in sales can push you onto a more expensive plan.
- You want upsells after checkout too. You'd rather have product-page offers and post-purchase upsells in one app than install two.
- You don't need A/B testing or POS. You'd rather not pay for features you won't use.
The free alternative: Snap Bundle
Snap Bundle is the bundle and volume discount app we build at Trafik Plus. It launched in May 2024, has a 4.9 rating on the Shopify App Store, and carries the Built for Shopify badge.
We're biased, so here are the facts for you to judge.
A free plan that works on live stores
Snap Bundle is free on any store, live or not, until its offers generate $500 in a month. The free plan includes unlimited campaigns and offers, plus live chat support.
One paid plan with no revenue cap
Once you pass $500 a month, there is a single paid plan:
Plan | Price | Bundle revenue included |
|---|---|---|
Free | $0 | Up to $500 / month |
Essential (monthly) | $12.99/mo (first month $8.99) | Unlimited |
There are no tiers to climb. A store making $400 a month from bundles pays nothing, and a store making $50,000 a month pays the same $12.99. The paid plan also adds priority live chat and 1-to-1 calls with the team.
What Snap Bundle includes
- Quantity breaks and volume discounts, with an optional free gift on any tier
- Fixed bundles and mix & match bundles
- A full-page bundle builder, a dedicated page where shoppers build their own box
- Product add-ons on the product page
- A post-purchase upsell shown after payment, and a bundle block at checkout
- Countdown timers, badges, a low-stock counter and variant swatches inside the widget
- Offers targeted by Shopify Market or customer tag
- A multi-language storefront widget and multi-currency support
- A revenue analytics dashboard
Discounts are applied through Shopify Functions, Shopify's own discount system.
Where Snap Bundle falls short
To be fair, Snap Bundle doesn't do everything Kaching does:
- No A/B testing yet.
- BOGO, gift-with-purchase and goal-based discounts are handled by a companion app rather than built in.
- No listed POS or page-builder integrations.
If any of these is a must-have, Kaching is the better fit.
Cost comparison at three store sizes
Here is what each app costs per month, on monthly billing:
Bundle revenue / month | Kaching Bundle | Snap Bundle | You save per year |
|---|---|---|---|
$400 | $14.99 | $0 | $179.88 |
$3,000 | $29.99 | $12.99 | $204.00 |
$8,000 | $59.99 | $12.99 | $564.00 |
Above $10,000 | Above Pro, not published (Custom pricing) | $12.99 | n/a |

How to switch from Kaching Bundles to Snap Bundle
Switching takes about an hour for most stores:
- Install Snap Bundle from the Shopify App Store(opens in a new tab). The free plan is enough to test on your live store.
- Rebuild your best offers. Start with the quantity breaks on your top-selling products, then your bundles.
- Swap the app blocks. In the theme editor, add the Snap Bundle block to your product template and remove the Kaching block.
- Place a test order. Check that the discount applies correctly in the cart and at checkout.
- Uninstall Kaching. Don't run two discount apps side by side, because their discounts can stack on the same order.
