Build-your-own monthly pet box
Let pet parents pick food + 2 treats + 1 toy + 1 supplement for their monthly box. Tiergain handles the cross-category bundle selection with quantity rules per step.
Breed-specific subscription bundles
Large breed monthly box. Small breed monthly box. Puppy monthly box. Breed-specific bundles convert 28% better because they signal expertise. Tiergain creates breed-specific product pools per bundle.
Free toy in every subscription delivery
Include a new toy in every monthly box. The toy costs you $3 and pets destroy them in a week anyway. Pet parents stay subscribed because the pet gets excited about the delivery.
Subscription upgrade: basic to premium pet box
Basic ($48/month): food + treats. Premium ($68/month): food + treats + supplement + toy. After 2 months, offer the premium upgrade with a free first month of the added items.
Post-purchase subscription conversion from starter kit buyers
After buying the new pet starter kit, offer monthly auto-ship at 12% off. New pet parents need everything on a recurring basis. Converting right after the starter kit pulls 11%.
Pet subscription bundles have the highest retention in e-commerce
Pet food subscriptions retain at 92%. Add treats and a toy to the monthly box and retention goes to 94% because the pet gets excited about delivery day. The toy is not a cost - it is a churn prevention tool.
