Create a package or subscription

Open Packages in the left navigation. The screen is titled "Bundles and subscriptions" and has two tabs:

  • Packages — a one-off bundle for a given week, like a family supper for four.
  • Subscriptions — a recurring offer, like a weekly box.

Create a package​

  1. Open Packages and stay on the Packages tab.
  2. Select New.
  3. Add a photo using the picker on the left. You can upload several and drag them to reorder — the starred one is what customers see first on the storefront and on flyers.
  4. No photo yet? Pick one of the four placeholders under Use a placeholder. They show packaging, a laid table, or a pattern rather than a particular dish, so they suit any menu and will not promise customers food you are not cooking. Swap in your own photo whenever you have one.
  5. Give it a clear name and describe exactly what is included.
  6. Set the price and the quantity available.
  7. Add the menu items it contains, with how many of each.
  8. Save.

The photo tools stay in the left column while you fill in the fields beside them, the same way the dish editor works.

Inventory is shared, not separate​

This is the part that catches people out. A package draws down the stock of the items inside it.

If you have 10 pot pies and sell a package containing 2 of them, you have 8 pot pies left to sell individually. Set the package quantity with that in mind, or you will oversell.

Create a subscription​

Same screen, Subscriptions tab.

If you have no plans yet, the tab offers a few worked examples — a weekly family plan, a smaller plan for two, and a monthly batch cook. Pick one, adjust the price and portions to match your kitchen, then save and make it public.

Use a placeholder works here too, with its own images. Where the package ones show a single meal ready to collect, these show the rhythm a plan is really selling — a standing order, a crate that comes back each week, a restocked shelf. As with packages, swap in a photo of your own when you have one.

Describe the rhythm in plain words — how many meals, how often, and which pickup day — because customers are committing to something repeating.

Limits​

Up to 30 packages per menu week.

Before you publish​

Preview the storefront and read the package description as a customer who has never seen your food. "Family Supper — 2 mains, 1 side, serves 4, collect Thursday" beats "Family Supper".
