Set up an extra price for Text

You can charge customers an extra fee when they enter short custom text on your product page (for example, adding a name or initials for custom embroidery).


Steps to Set Up Pricing for Text:


Step 1: Open the Optionia App

Go to your Shopify Admin page. Look at the left side, click Apps, choose Optionia - Product Options, and then click Option Sets.

Step 2: Pick Your Option Set

Click on the Option set you want to edit (or click the Create option set button at the top right to start a brand new one).

Step 3: Select or Add Text Option

Under the Options section, click on an existing Text option to edit it (or click + Add option and select Text to create a new one).


Step 4: Add Your Extra Fee

Scroll down until you see the price boxes:

  • Additional price: Type the extra money you want to charge when a customer writes anything (for example: 4 for $4.00).

  • Price per character: Type an amount if you want to charge for every single letter they type (for example: 0.10 for 10 cents per letter).


Step 5: Press Save

Look at the top bar and click the white Save button. That's it!




Note: As soon as your customer types a word on your product page, the extra price will automatically add to their total!
