Variant Binding

We mean business first and foremost.

3D product customization is indeed stylish, but here at Angle 3D we treat the back-end of your business just as professionally.

What is Binding?

Angle 3D Configurator is built to work effortlessly with your existing Shopify e-commerce. Chances are, you are already familiar with Shopify variant options and how to manage them. Binding allows you to automatically link your Shopify variant options to the customization options set up in the 3D configurator. What does this mean? Pricing and stock tracking for specific variants of your products are promptly reflected in your configurator! In addition, binding also provides an elegant solution to Shopify's variant limit.

Variant Binding VS Bundle Binding

Both variant binding and bundle binding allow you to link Shopify's variant options to the customization options set on the 3D configurator.

Bundle binding allows you to group several product together and sell them as a single unit. Also, bundle binding additionally provides a convenient solution to Shopify's 100 variants limit for product. Please note that the bundle binding feature is only accessible via the Enterprise plan. → Set up Variant Binding
