Campaign Planner: Schedule Bundle Promotions Automatically

A bundle deal has a start and an end in the merchant's head. It launches Black Friday morning and comes down when the sale is over.

However, the bundle itself doesn't know that. It runs until someone switches it off. There's no start date, no end date, just on or off, set by hand. Scheduling a bundle promotion on Shopify has always meant scheduling yourself to be at a laptop at the right moment, not the promotion.

Campaign Planner, the latest feature of Boost Commerce, changes that.

The problem with manual bundle scheduling during peak sales

Predictive Bundles effectively surface optimal product combinations and pricing, but they lack automated start and end times, leaving scheduling entirely to merchants.

While manageable normally, this manual process becomes risky during peak sales weeks when every promotion must align precisely on schedule.

"A bundle deal should be able to know when it starts and when it stops, so merchants don’t have to be the timekeeper during their busiest season." - Iris Dinh, Senior Product Manager at Boost Commerce.

67% of merchants say BFCM and the holiday season account for up to half their annual sales, so a bundle that opens or closes a few hours off schedule during that stretch isn't a small mistake. It's real revenue on the days that matter most.

For Boost merchants specifically, Predictive Bundles already drive a 20%+ average order value lift. Campaign Planner's job is to make sure that lift shows up exactly when it's supposed to, not a few hours late.

How do you schedule a bundle promotion with Campaign Planner?

Campaign Planner is live in Boost, and its first job is to give your bundle deals a schedule. Here's the flow:

Go to Campaign Planner in your Boost admin and click Add campaign.
Name the campaign and add an optional description. This is shown only inside Boost, so shoppers never see it.
Attach a bundle you've already built in Predictive Bundles.
Set a start and end date/time, then save.

The bundle turns on when you set it to and turns off when you set it to. No follow-up required.

What you can do with Campaign Planner

You attach a bundle you've already created in Predictive Bundles. Campaign Planner doesn't build new bundles for you; it schedules the ones you have.

A campaign gets its own start and end date and time, something a standalone Predictive Bundle has never had.

Once it's scheduled, the bundle opens and closes on its own. No login required on either end.

It's built into Boost, and it's Shopify native. No developer, no theme edits, no agency ticket.

What's coming next for Campaign Planner?

At launch, Campaign Planner focuses on giving your existing bundles a precise schedule. Since customers are most attracted to bundle deals, starting here delivers immediate value.

Right now, you can preview upcoming offer types directly inside the Campaign Planner feature. Soon, you can schedule: Merchandising rules, Promotional banners, Recommendation widgets, and Countdown timers together.

Once every offer type joins Campaign Planner, you'll orchestrate every promotion from a single campaign calendar. Stay tuned as we expand what you can schedule.

Let BFCM be your first scheduled bundle

Black Friday and Cyber Monday are when most merchants feel this gap most sharply, and that's the moment we built toward first. But this isn't a Black Friday-only tool. It's how you run a mid-year clearance bundle, a flash-drop combo, or a seasonal gift set without logging back in to turn it off.

Campaign Planner is already in your Boost dashboard. Open Boost, find Campaign Planner in the menu, and schedule your first bundle.

If you haven't installed Boost yet, there's still time to start your 21-day free trial and schedule your bundle deal before BFCM.

running on autopilot.
