How to increase revenue using bundles in Mews POS

 

You can combine multiple sellable products or variants into one menu item with Bundles in Mews POS; such as a three-course dinner, or a burger with fries and a drink and curated offers such as coffee and pastry combo. Combining multiple items under one price means larger orders, and an increase in average customer spend. This also enables staff to add multiple items in one tap, keeping service efficient. As a hospitality employee, you create bundles in the Mews POS web dashboard when you want to offer fixed-price menus and promote combinations. This simplifies ordering during busy periods by ensuring staff can add multiple items to the cart in one step, and present guests with clear, attractive offers.

1. Click Products > Bundles.

2. Click  . This opens the new product bundle side window.

3. Fill in the the following:

 

• Name: Enter the name of the bundle. For example, lunch meal deal.
  A clear name helps staff quickly identify and select the correct offer during service, which speeds up ordering and reduces errors.

• SKU: Enter the stock keeping unit reference for the item. For example, SKU04
  This supports accurate reporting and stock tracking so you can monitor bundle performance and adjust pricing or composition to improve revenue.

• Tile label: The system generates this name automatically. You can rename it. Mews POS displays the tile label in the app product list and in the app shortcut grid.
  Use a short and clear tile label so staff can find and select the bundle quickly during peak service.

• Tile color: Click a tile color to select it or click Add image to upload and add a custom image. This image is visible in the app shortcut grid. Note: Promoting your products with images leads to higher conversion. Refer to the example below

• Fixed bundle price: Click the slider switch to enable a fixed price for this bundle. This enables configuration of group prices and disables configuration of item prices.

  • Variable : You configure the price of each item you add to the bundle. Mews POS sets the price of the bundle by combining the prices of all items in the bundle the customer selects.

    Note: Mews POS sets the bundle to a variable price by default.

  • Fixed: You configure the price of each group and then enter the sum of this amount into the bundle price field to configure the cost of the bundle.
    Use a fixed price to create attractive set menus that encourage guests to choose a complete offer and increase average spend.

• Default course: Click the drop-down to select the course for the item group.

• Product Name: Click the drop-down to select a product to add to the item group.
  Add products that complement each other to create appealing combinations that increase guest spend.

  • If the product has variants, additional checkboxes appear. Check the boxes to disable any variants you do not wish to include in the bundle.
    Limit variants to protect margins or exclude low-profit options.

• Price: Enter or edit the price of the item or variants.
  Adjust prices to align with your revenue strategy and ensure the bundle meets your target margin.

• Add product: Click to add additional items to the item group.
