You can add paid or free options to your products/services using several options like radio buttons, checkbox, drop-down fields, custom text inputs, etc.

Let’s see how to activate and utilise this feature. Here is what we are going to share with you:

• How Vendors Can Create Product Add-ons
• Creating Add-ons For Individual Products
• Points to Remember

How Vendors Can Create Product Add-ons

Go to Vendor Dashboard. Click on Settings.

Click on Add-ons.

Click on Create New Add-on

Now you need to add,

Name: Add a name for your add-ons to differentiate from other add-ons. It will not be visible on the website. By default, this is filled in for you.

Priority: If there are multiple add-ons, this number will define in what order they will be displayed. But for individual add-ons this number will be 10.

Product Categories: Add the product category you want this add-on to be applicable to. This will help you in the seasonal and time-specific add-ons.

Now click on “Add Field” button.

It will give you some new options.

• Multiple choices – Shows a list of options the user can choose from. Display as dropdowns, images, or radio buttons.
• Customer-defined price – Shows a field where users can enter a numerical value that is added to the product price.
• Quantity – Shows a spinner where users can input a number.
• Checkboxes – Shows a checkbox or checkboxes that can be ticked/unticked by a customer.
• Short text – There are five in-built types. This shows a text field where users can enter either any text; just letters; just numbers; both; or an email address only.
• Long text –  Shows a text field where users can write multiple lines of text (character limit possible).
• File upload – Allows users to upload a file.
• Heading – Add a heading between add-ons to group them into sections.
• Title – Format the title as a Label or Heading, or hide it.
• Add a description – Displays more information about the add-on underneath the heading.
• Required field – Prevents product from being added to cart if an option is not selected.
• Options – Add a label for each option as well as a price if needed. Calculate the price as flat-free, Quantity based or Percentage Based. To remove an option row, click the button ‘X’.

click on “Publish” to finish.

Note: Customers, have to click on the product to get the Add-ons option.

Creating Add-ons For Individual Products

So far, the add-ons we have created were global add-ons. That means that add-on was applicable to all the products. But there is an option for creating add-ons for an individual product as well.

To do that, just go to the “Edit” page of the product. Then scroll down. There you will find the Add-on option. Edit those options to make an individual add-on for that particular product.

Points to Remember

If a vendor or admin create an Add-on, that Add-on will be applicable only for that store of vendors or admins. However, an admin can view all the add-ons created by all the vendors. But vendors can only view their own add-ons, they can not view the add-ons of other vendors.

That is it for Product Add-ons. Enjoy!
