How to bulk delete products from dynamically-priced bundles subscriptions
You may need to remove out-of-stock products or permanently delete items from a bundle to ensure smooth order processing or phase out discontinued products. The Bulk updates tool enables you to efficiently remove products from dynamically-priced bundles across multiple customer subscriptions without using the API. This helps prevent charge errors and keeps bundles up to date without disrupting the customer experience.

Notes |

Bundle size requirements
|
Recharge does not validate bundle size, so you must ensure that removing products does not leave the bundle subscription with fewer than the required items. For example, if a bundle requires a minimum of three items, removing products may leave customers with fewer than the required items (e.g., two items or less). Failing to meet the minimum requirement could result in errors when processing the bundle order. |

Deleting products from a bundle |
Deleting a product from a bundle is irreversible. Once you delete a product, you cannot re-add it to the bundle without using the API. |
|
Bundle subscription
|
If you remove all selections from a customer's bundle subscription, the order will include fallback contents if they are set in the bundle settings. |
