Frequently Bought Togethernew
An exclusive widget that is present in the theme so there is no longer a need to buy a monthly subscription to an expensive apps.
Advantages of our Frequently Bought Together widget (further in the text as FBT):
- Four layout options on the product page: Inner Grid, Inner List, Outer Grid 1, Outer Grid 2.
- Full synchronization with the cart, a purchased is offered after the add to cart action.
- An advanced system for adding products from the FBT section to the cart: the ability to add both individually selected products and all at once.
- Motivating message about a gift after adding all the products to the cart from the FBT section.
- Asynchronous block - 100% passes page speed insight metrics.
- Synced live reload widget after adding to the cart or removing from the header cart.
- Does not offer a product from the FBT list that is already in the cart. This allows the buyer to easily keep track of what is bought from the FBT list and what is left to buy without losing focus.

Steps to enable FBT
Create collection metafield
This first step only runs once if it hasn't been done before or metafield was deleted.
- From your Shopify admin, go to Settings > Metafields ↗ (opens in a new tab).
- Click Collections.
- Click Add definition.
- In the Name field, enter frequently_bought_together, and then select that name from the list.
- Click Select content type, and then select True or false from the list.
- Click Save.
Enable / disable FBT for collection
- From your Shopify admin, go to the collection.
- Click on the frequently_bought_together metafield at the bottom of the product page.
- Set True to enable.
Set False or Clear value to disable. - Click Save.
Thus, each product from this collection will offer to buy its neighbors in the collection (in fact, these are related products). If a product is linked to several collections, only the first collection will be taken into account.
Advanced usage
We recommend to create special collection-sets. For example, a buyer buys a shirt for which it would not be bad to offer to buy other things directly related to it in color, such as a jacket, trousers, cufflinks, a tie, and so on.
- Create a collection and it's name, for example "Men's set 1".
- Add there all the products clearly suitable for joint purchase.
- Set metafield frequently_bought_together to True in this collection.
All products are now interconnected, and on each product page, other items from the current set will be suggested. Additionally, when adding items to the cart from any page in the store, related products will be offered.
This helps a lot and motivates the buyer to see the whole picture of the style and buy everything they need.
