With this feature, you can add extra charges to specific product options your customers select. This gives you full control over how each option affects the final price of a product.
What are extended product options? Extended product options are additional choices you offer your customers beyond the standard product details. These can include things like custom text, number inputs, size selections, color swatches, file uploads, and more. Each option can have its own extra price, which is added on top of the product base price when a customer makes a selection.
Why does this matter? As a store owner, different options often come with different production costs. For example, adding a custom text engraving or a premium color swatch may cost more to fulfill. Dynamic pricing lets you charge the right amount for each option so your business stays profitable without any manual calculation.
InkyBay supports the following extended product option types: Text, Long Text, Number, Single Choice Drop Down, Single Choice Radio, Single Choice Swatch, Multiple Choice Checkbox, Multiple Choice Swatch, Custom Size Free Size, Custom Size Fixed Width, Custom Size Fixed Height, and File Attachment.
