Is there any way to make a product have a text box modifier and allow it to change the price?

Hi,

 

I own an embroidery business and I would like to allow customers to add their names to the back of certain garments, I am currently using variations for size selection, what should I do to allow customers to choose sizes, choose if they want to have their name on the back of our garments, what it is, and I need it to increase the price of the original garment.

 

Thanks.

Hey @PirieEmbroidery

To address your needs, I recommend using modifiers for online orders specifically.

Here's a step-by-step guide:

Step 1: Create a List Modifier for Name Tag

  1. Sign in to your Square Dashboard and navigate to Items & Orders > Items > Modifiers > Create a Modifier.
  2. Enter a name (e.g., โ€œDo you want a custom embroidered name tag?โ€).
  3. Select List Modifier as the Modifier Type.
  4. In the New Modifier field, type Yes, and specify the additional price for this option (e.g., $10.00).
  5. In the next New Modifier field, type No and leave the price field blank.
  6. Click Save.



Step 2: Create a Text Modifier for Name Entry

  1. On the Modifiers page, click Create a Modifier.
  2. Enter a name (e.g., โ€œEnter name here if purchasing a custom embroidered name tagโ€).
  3. Click Save.

Note: Text modifiers do not have associated prices, which is why this is a separate step from the List modifier.


Step 3: Apply Modifiers to Your Item

  1. Go to Items & Orders > Items > Item Library.
  2. Select the item you want to modify to open the Edit Item page.
  3. Under Modifiers, click Add and select your created modifiers.
  4. Click Save.
  5. Reopen the item to access the Edit Item page again.
  6. Next to your List Modifier, click the three dots (โ€ฆ) and select Customise.
  7. On the Customise Modifiers page, set both Required Modifiers and Maximum Modifiers to 1.
  8. Press Save.


This setup allows customers to select their size, decide if they want to add a name tag for an additional cost, and enter the name they want embroidered.

Please see the screenshots below for reference:

For in-person orders, consider creating an additional item or modifier (e.g., โ€œCustom Embroidered Name Tag Add-onโ€). Add this to the sale at checkout, and include a note with the requested name.

I hope this helps! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
