Product catalogs: variants, bundles, and collections
Manage physical and digital products, variant SKUs, bundles, collections, and image galleries in Mrfqy — with honest advice on catalog structure.
A messy catalog creates messy fulfillment. Mrfqy's product model separates what you sell (products), how it ships (physical vs digital), how it varies (size/color SKUs), and how you merchandise it (collections and bundles). Understanding these layers early prevents duplicate SKUs, overselling, and confused customers at checkout.
Physical vs digital products
Physical products decrement inventory on fulfillment and require shipping zones, weight fields, and courier integration. Digital products skip shipping and deliver via secure download links after payment.
Do not duplicate listings for the same item in physical and digital forms unless they truly differ in price and fulfillment — use one product with clear type instead.
Mrfqy tracks COGS and profit per SKU on supported plans, so classify products correctly from day one for accurate dashboard margins later.
Variants, SKUs, and inventory
Variants represent sellable combinations — size M / color Red each gets its own SKU, price override, barcode, and stock count. Parent products hold shared description and gallery images.
Use human-readable SKU codes aligned with your warehouse labels (e.g., TSHIRT-M-RED) so pickers do not guess. Mrfqy inventory sync prevents checkout when stock hits zero if tracking is enabled.
Track inventory at variant level for fashion; track at product level only for unique handmade pieces where quantity is always one.
Bundles and promotional grouping
Bundles sell multiple SKUs as one cart line — Ramadan gift sets, skincare routines, or printer plus ink. Price the bundle below sum-of-parts enough to motivate purchase but above combined COGS.
