One way to create box subscriptions in Ooooby is by using core items. These are the main products that customers subscribe to; for example, a small veg box or a large fruit box. Once a core item is in their basket, customers can also add extra products if you choose to allow this.
Steps to Create a Core Item (Box Subscription)
1. Add a Product
In the Crew Dashboard, go to Products → All Products → Add a Product.
2. Enter Product Information
Fill in the product name, description, and price.
From the Product Type dropdown, select Core Product.
3. Define Core Product Details
Short Code: Assign a simple code for each box (e.g.
LGEfor Large Box,SMALLfor Small Box).Packing Priority: Set the order your boxes should be packed (1 = first, 2 = second, etc.).
Allow Extras in Box: Tick this option if customers should be able to add other products to their order.
4. Save and Duplicate
Click Save when finished.
To create another core item, scroll down and click 'Create Copy', then adjust the details and save.
Photography Tips
Good images make subscription boxes more appealing:
Use different photos for each box size to show the difference in quantity.
Keep the style and lighting consistent across all box photos.
Show the box filled with fresh produce to give customers a clear idea of what they’re buying.
⚠️ Be Aware!
Always use your own photos or royalty-free images. Publishing copyrighted material without permission can land your shop with BIG fines.
