Why is the checkout price different from the bundle widget?

The widget's prices are a preview. Checkout decides the real price. These are the usual reasons they differ.

Updated November 5, 2026

The widget's prices are a preview, and checkout decides the real price. They match in normal use. A difference usually comes from one of these settings.

Reasons and fixes

  • Compare-at price. With Use product compare-at price on, the widget's saving starts from the compare-at price. Checkout starts from the real price. The price paid is the same, but the saving looks smaller at checkout. For example, the widget says 30% saved and checkout says 15% OFF. See the steps below.
  • Hidden decimals. Show prices without decimals only changes the widget. $19.50 can show as $20.
  • Rounding left on. If Pricing rounding was on when you turned on Show prices without decimals, checkout still rounds and the widget doesn't. See the steps below.
  • Buy X get Y with mixed variants. Without a Quantity selector, the widget counts the cheapest unit as free. Checkout takes free units from the line with the most units first. With different variant prices, the two can differ.
  • Other currencies. Amount off and Fixed price convert with Shopify's exchange rate. Small differences are normal.
  • Subscriptions. Subscribe orders also get your subscription app's own discount.
  • The cart changed. The quantity moved to another offer. Read What happens when a shopper changes the quantity in the cart?
  • Another discount. A code or automatic discount also applies.
