DepositFee Fee Strategy: Bundle with Product vs Bundle with Fees

Understand Fee Strategy in DepositFee and choose between Bundle with Product and Bundle with Fees based on checkout behavior.

Article

Fee Strategy controls how the fee appears at checkout for eligible products.

Available strategies

The fee will be bundled with the main product at checkout. The fee amount will be added to the main product's price.

The fee will be displayed as a separate line item in the checkout bundled with other fees.

Strategy	Checkout display	Best for
Bundle with Product	Merged into main product price	Cleaner line-item view with fee absorbed into product
Bundle with Fees	Separate fee line item	Transparent fee visibility as standalone fee item

Bundle with Product is now the recommended/default strategy in DepositFee setup.
Online Store: bundle_product uses cart transform expansion for cleaner cart/checkout presentation and better fee-product linking.
Online Store: checkout/buy-now blocking logic is focused on bundle_fee flows only, so bundle_product keeps a smoother purchase experience.
POS: Apply flow skips multiple + bundle_product manual fee injection (auto/cart-transform handling path).
POS: single/onetime + bundle_product adds the fee parent item, then pricing is handled by rule logic.

Cleaner cart UX with fewer unexpected blocks for eligible bundle_product setups.
Better separation of fee behavior by strategy (bundle_fee vs bundle_product).
More consistent handling between Online and POS for one-time fee scenarios.

Fee Strategy affects how the fee is represented in checkout, not your fee trigger conditions or matching rules.
Existing fees keep their saved strategy until you edit and update that fee.
Strategy behavior is primarily intended for Online Store checkout flows; display can vary across channels/apps (for example POS or custom checkout integrations).
Theme/app customizations can affect how cart or checkout line items are rendered visually.
Dashboard preview images are guidance previews, not a real-time checkout simulation.
