If a customer bought multiple products from your store, they might be due for reminders on different products around the same time. Instead of sending three separate emails on the same day, Easy Reorder bundles them into one, keeping your customers' inboxes happy and your sender reputation healthy.
🔄 How bundling works
When reminders come due, Easy Reorder looks at all the products due for each customer. If a customer has multiple products due within the bundle window, those products are combined into a single email.
The email shows each product as its own product card, with the reorder button taking the customer to their reorder page.
⏱️ The bundle window
The bundle window is the time range during which due reminders are combined. For example, if your bundle window is set to 3 days, then any reminders due within 3 days of each other are bundled into one email.
You can change it here:
In the Easy Reorder app, go to Emails → Settings
Find Sending rules
Change Bundle window (the default is 7 days)
Click Save in the bar that appears at the top
Make it longer if you want fewer, more comprehensive emails, or shorter if you want each reminder to be more precise.
📧 What the email looks like
A bundled email typically shows:
A header reminding the customer it's time to restock
A product card for each product that is due for reorder
A button to their reorder page
Standard footer with snooze link
You can customize all of this in the email editor. The layout is up to you. If you want different wording for bundles, you can use {% if bundle %}…{% else %}…{% endif %} in your subject or text. See Use variables in your reminder emails.
🛡️ Minimum gap between emails
In addition to bundling, Easy Reorder keeps a minimum gap between any two emails to the same customer. It's called Minimum days between emails, it sits right above Bundle window in Sending rules, and it's usually 14 days (7 if Easy Reorder set up your first two emails when you turned emails on). If a customer got an email within that gap, a reminder that comes due is held back and shows as Held on the Queued tab.
This is your customer's safety net against email fatigue.
💡 Pro Tip
Use a wider bundle window (5-7 days) if you sell lots of consumables, since most customers buy several products at once and benefit from combined emails. Use a narrower window (1-2 days) if your products have very different reorder timelines.
⚠️ When bundling doesn't apply
Bundling only applies to reorder reminder emails, not to:
Transactional emails (order confirmations)
Marketing emails from other apps
Test emails
Each of those is governed by its own rules. Also, the first email and the follow-up emails in your sequence are never bundled together, because each one has its own wording.
