Product pages need to do many things at once. They have to present the product, show images, explain details, display variants, build trust, and guide customers toward purchase. When recommendations are added to the page, they need to support that experience without making the layout feel crowded.
The Compact layout in Frequently Bought Together is designed for stores that want to show bundle recommendations in a cleaner and more streamlined way. By displaying bundle products in a single row, it helps merchants keep product suggestions visible while reducing the amount of vertical space used on the page.
This can be especially useful for stores with detailed product pages, multiple product options, or themes where space is limited. Compact allows the bundle offer to stay close to the main product, making it easier for customers to notice the recommendation without interrupting their browsing flow.
For customers, this means a faster and simpler way to review suggested products. They can quickly understand which items are being recommended together and decide whether the bundle fits their needs, without having to scroll through a large recommendation block.
For merchants, Compact offers another way to adapt Frequently Bought Together to their storefront design. It helps the widget feel more integrated into the product page, while still keeping the recommendation clear, visible, and ready to convert.
Merchants can select this layout from Visual styles → Layout in the Frequently Bought Together preferences page.
