NEW! Collecting Information from Buyers of Specific Items (Plus/Professional)
There are two ways to collect information from the buyers of fixed-price items - and either or both can be used on a specific item.
Item Variant Options - fixed price items can be setup to collect two variants (eg color/size). The item is offered as a single item with buyers selecting their option choices from dropdown menus. Item Variants are most often used for options like:
- Color/Size of merchandise
- Date/Time of ticketed performances
- Price differentials (large/small, adult/student)
Item Custom Fields - fixed price items can be setup with up to two custom fields for buyers of the item to provide info about their purchase. Item custom fields are most often used to collect info such as:
- Name of student/team buyer is supporting
- Personalization (monogram, engraving, gift message)
- Student/Grade/Teacher/Classroom
