Included products are a great way to grant access to additional products when customers sign up for a specific product.
This feature allows you to offer bonus products, extra resources, and more as part of your primary product.
In this article, we’ll show you how to include products within other products.
Introduction
Including products allows you to give access to additional products when customers purchase a product from you.
It’s a great way to add extra value - like offering bonuses and additional resources - to your primary product.
Customers will get free access to all included products, along with the main offer, when they purchase this primary product from you.
Customers will see all included products on their dashboard, showing they’re included as part of the primary product they've purchased.
Including products with other products
Here's how to include products within a product:
From your Podia dashboard, click on Products in the sidebar menu.
Click on Edit next to the product you'd like to add included products to.
Navigate to the Details tab.
Locate the Included products option.
Locate or search for the product you want to include and click on it to get it added.
You can't add draft or product bundles as included products.
If an included product has its own included products, those won’t automatically be accessible to customers.
Repeat the process to add as many included products as you'd like.
Included products will automatically be added for all existing customers, and new customers will also receive them when they purchase your main offer.

Example: if Product A includes Product B and Product B includes Product C, Product A won't include Product C.
To grant access to all nested products, you’ll need to manually add each of them to the main product you’re editing.

What happens if someone is removed from the main product?
If someone is removed from the main product, they’ll also lose access to all included products that came with it.
