Step 1: Create a New Option Set

  1. In the left sidebar, click Option Sets

  2. Click Create Option Set

  3. Enter a clear, helpful name

An Option Set is a group of custom fields that appear together on a product page.

If this is your first time opening the app, you may briefly see a syncing message while your Shopify products load. When finished, you’ll see Catalog Sync Complete.

Step 2: Create Your First Option Field

Inside your new Option Set:

Label on Product

Enter the text shoppers will see above the field on the product page. This acts as the title of your option.

Label on Cart

Enter the text that will appear in the cart, checkout, and order details.

Choose an Input Type

Select how shoppers will make their selection:

  • Text

  • Large Text

  • Number

  • Radio Buttons

  • Checkboxes

  • Drop-down Menu

  • Swatches

Each input type has its own settings, which you can adjust as needed.

To add more choices under the same field, click Add Another Option Value.

To add another field to this Option Set, click Add Another Custom Field.


Step 3: Adjust Settings (Optional)

Each field includes additional settings you can customize.

Common settings include:

Each field includes additional settings that control its behavior.

Common settings include:

  • Required — Makes the field mandatory before adding to cart

  • Default Value — Pre-selects a value when the page loads

  • Character Limit — Limits how much text can be entered

  • Placeholder Text — Light text shown inside a field before typing

  • Min/Max — Sets number limits for number inputs

  • Min/Max Selections — Sets limits for checkbox selections

You can leave any setting blank if you do not need it.

More advanced features, such as Conditional Logic, can be explored once you are comfortable with the basics.

Step 4: Assign Your Option Set to Products

At the top of your Option Set screen, you’ll see the assignment section.

This determines where your options will appear.

You can assign options by:

  • Product

  • Variant

  • Collection

  • Vendor

  • Tag

Most beginners start by assigning to a Product.

Select the products where you want your options to display.

Step 5: Save Your Work

Click Save in the upper right corner.

Your options may take a few minutes to appear on your storefront.
