Customizations
Customizations allow you to let your customers choose options that will "Customize" a product.
Example: Allow your customers to have a message inscribed on your Product for an additional $10
Customizations can't be imported via CSV due to their complexity. But they can be copied to other Products.
To add the same customization to multiple products, follow this guide: Copy Customizations From One Product To Others
How to add Customization to your Product
Click on your Product to enter the Settings. Then click on, or scroll down to, Customizations.
Here you can create the customization to allow customers to select or provide their customization for the Product.
Creating the Customization
- Enter the Title of the Customization.
- Choose which Type of Customization this will be. See an explanation of each Type below.

- One-Time Charge for customizing many products but only charging the customer once.
- Per Item Charges will charge for customization of each product.

Limitations
- Customizations are not to be used when inventory needs to be tracked on the customization. For example you should not use Customizations for letting customers select a color or size (unless you are not tracking inventory based on color and size)
- Configurable, Bundle and Grouped products will not show any Customizations from their Variations, Bundle Items or Grouped Products.
- Grouped Products can not have Customizations
- You can not add Swatches to Customizations, only Variations can have Swatches
- Customizations can not have "Dependencies" i.e. if you select option A, it will then present you with options B and C, but selecting option X will present you with options Y and Z.
