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 price

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!

Additional price for Text Area Option

If you need a multi-line text box for longer custom notes, follow the same steps but select Text Area.

Step 1: Select or Add Text Area

Under the Options section, click on your Text Area option (or click + Add option and select Text Area).

Step 2: Set Your Extra Prices

• Flat Option Fee (Additional price): Enter a flat base fee in the Additional price field (e.g., 1.00). Charged as soon as the customer types into the text area.

• Charge Per Character (Price per character): Enter a price in the Price per character field (e.g., 0.05). Charged for every character typed into the text area.

Step 3: Save Changes

Click the white Save button in the top bar.
