How much cheaper is Releasit Bundles than Kaching?

Releasit Bundles costs $0 to $19.99 a month depending on how much extra revenue the app generates; Kaching costs $14.99 to $299 a month on the same measure. Kaching's App Store listing shows only its first three tiers; its website pricing page shows all seven. Both apps price by "additional revenue", meaning the value of orders that include a bundle or discount the app created.

Prices are monthly in USD. Annual plans cut Releasit's prices by 25% ($44.99 to $179.99 a year) and Kaching's by about 25% ($131.88 to $2,628 a year). On annual billing, a store at the $10,000 tier pays $134.99 a year with Releasit and $539.88 with Kaching; at $50,000 or more it pays $179.99 against $2,628.

Worked example. A store that adds $4,000 a month in bundle revenue sits in Kaching's Scale plan at $29.99 and Releasit's Growth plan at $9.99. Over a year that is $240 saved, with the same quantity-break and bundle offers running on the product page.

One detail to know before you pick a plan: what happens when a store grows past its cap. In Releasit Bundles, the order that crosses the limit still gets its discount; after that, offers pause until you choose a higher plan, and nothing is charged automatically. Kaching's low-rated App Store reviews from August 2024 describe offers pausing at the tier limit as well. On either app, upgrade before a big campaign rather than during it.

Does Releasit Bundles have the same features as Kaching?

For the four offer types that drive most bundle revenue on Shopify, yes: both apps build quantity breaks, product bundles, mix-and-match bundles and product-page upsells, apply the discount through Shopify Functions at checkout, and let you A/B test offers. Kaching goes wider on add-ons; Releasit goes deeper on testing and preview.

What both apps do

• Quantity breaks and volume discounts with percentage, fixed-amount or set-price tiers
• Fixed bundles, multipacks, mix-and-match and variant bundles
• Product-page upsells and one-click add-ons
• BOGO and free-shipping offers
• Discounts applied by Shopify Functions at checkout, with no duplicate variants or draft orders
• A/B testing of offers
• Custom CSS and HTML, drag-and-drop styling, multi-currency and multi-language stores
• Built for Shopify badge, which means the app passed Shopify's performance and admin-integration review

Where Releasit Bundles is stronger

• A/B tests with custom traffic splits are included on the free plan, so a new store can test two offers before paying anything.
• Live preview on 14 theme layouts before an offer is published.
• A built-in conversion funnel (impressions, clicks, add-to-cart, orders) and a top-offers report in the app.
• Native sync with Releasit COD Form & Upsells for stores that take cash on delivery.

Where Kaching Bundles is stronger

• Add-on offer types: free gifts, gift wrap, product add-ons, warranties and shipping protection.
• Shopify POS support.
• More page-builder integrations: EComposer, Foxify, Instant and Replo as well as GemPages and PageFly.
• A companion cart drawer and subscriptions app from the same developer.
• Four years on the App Store and 6,158 reviews, against Releasit Bundles' launch in April 2026.

Releasit Bundles is the newer app, but it is built by the team behind Releasit COD Form & Upsells, which has 2,493 reviews and a 4.9 rating, and the Releasit suite is used by more than 100,000 merchants.

Why merchants switch from Kaching to Releasit Bundles

Merchants who move from Kaching to Releasit Bundles usually do it for one of four reasons: the bill, the free plan, testing on day one, or the cap.

1. The bill is a fraction of the price at scale

At $10,000 in extra monthly revenue, Releasit Bundles costs $14.99 a month and Kaching costs $59.99, a saving of $540 a year. At $50,000 or more, Releasit's Unlimited plan is $19.99 and Kaching's top tier is $299, a saving of $3,348 a year on monthly billing or $2,448 on annual billing, for the same quantity-break and bundle offers.

2. You can run bundles for free until they pay for themselves

Releasit Bundles' free plan includes every feature and covers up to $1,000 a month in extra revenue. A new store can launch quantity breaks, measure the lift and only start paying once bundles generate more than $1,000 a month. Kaching's trial lasts 7 days.

3. A/B testing is built in from the first offer

Releasit lets you split traffic between two versions of an offer, for example a 2-pack at 10% off against a 3-pack at 15% off, and shows which one wins on conversion rate and revenue. The test runs on the free plan, so pricing decisions are based on your store's data rather than guesswork.

4. Predictable billing as you grow

Releasit's plans step up in fixed $5 increments to a $19.99 Unlimited tier with no revenue cap, so a strong month never pushes the bill above $19.99. Kaching's price keeps stepping up with revenue, through $99, $149 and $199 to $299 a month at $50,000 or more, and some of its low-rated App Store reviews describe bills that changed from month to month. If a store passes its plan cap, Releasit honours the order that crosses it, then pauses offers until you pick a higher plan; the bill never moves on its own.

Other Kaching Bundles alternatives worth considering

If Releasit Bundles is not the right fit, six other Shopify apps cover the same ground as Kaching; each is strongest for a different kind of store.

Ratings and review counts are from the Shopify App Store on 5 October 2026 and change daily. Pumper's and Bundler's free tiers are described in each app's own listing; check the current cap before you install.

When Kaching Bundles is still the right choice

Kaching Bundles remains the better app for stores that depend on its add-on offers or its wider integration list, and at low volumes the cost difference is under $15 a month.

• You sell gift wrap, warranties or shipping protection as upsells. Releasit Bundles does not list these offer types. Kaching does, in the same app.
• You use Shopify POS. Kaching lists POS support; Releasit Bundles does not.
• Your product pages are built in EComposer, Foxify, Instant or Replo. Kaching has native integrations with all four. Releasit Bundles currently lists GemPages and PageFly.
• You already run Kaching Cart or Kaching Subscriptions. Keeping bundles in the same family avoids a second support contact.
• You want the longest track record. Kaching launched in August 2022 and has 6,158 App Store reviews with a 5.0 rating; Releasit Bundles launched in April 2026.

If none of these applies, the two apps do the same job on the product page and Releasit Bundles does it for less.

How to switch from Kaching to Releasit Bundles

Switching takes about ten minutes for a store with a handful of offers. Both apps can stay installed while you rebuild, as long as only one has a live offer on a given product.

1. List your live Kaching offers. Note each offer's products, tiers and discount values, for example "Buy 2 save 10%, buy 3 save 15%" on your best-selling collection.
2. Install Releasit Bundles & Upsells from the Shopify App Store.
3. Rebuild the first offer as a quantity break. In Releasit Bundles, create a Quantity Breaks offer, pick the same products and enter the same tiers. The help centre guide to quantity breaks walks through each field.
4. Match the design in the live preview. Choose one of the 14 layouts, set colours and fonts to your theme, and check the product page preview before publishing.
5. Pause the Kaching offer on those products, then publish the Releasit offer. Running both on the same product would show two widgets.
6. Place a test order to confirm the discount applies at checkout.
7. Repeat for the remaining offers, then uninstall Kaching from Settings > Apps and sales channels.
8. Set up one A/B test on your highest-traffic product, for example the current tiers against a slightly deeper third tier, and let it run for at least two weeks.

If an offer does not look right after the move, Releasit's support team can help through the in-app chat.
