What are Add-on Groups?
Add-on Groups are categories of optional extras that customers can choose from when purchasing a product.
They help organize related add-ons into groups, making it easier for customers to customize their orders.
Examples of Add-on Groups:
- Gift Wrapping
- Extended Warranty
- Accessories
- Custom Engraving
- Extra Services
For example, a laptop product may have an Accessories add-on group containing a mouse, laptop bag, and keyboard.
What are Product Add-ons?
Product Add-ons are additional items, services, or upgrades that customers can purchase alongside a product for an extra cost.
They allow customers to customize their purchase and can increase the value of each order.
Examples of Product Add-ons:
- Gift wrapping (+UGX 5,000)
- Premium packaging (+UGX 10,000)
- Extended warranty (+UGX 20,000)
- Phone case (+UGX 15,000)
- Screen protector (+UGX 8,000)
Example
Product: Smartphone
Add-on Group: Accessories
- Phone Case (+UGX 15,000)
- Screen Protector (+UGX 8,000)
- Fast Charger (+UGX 25,000)
When a customer adds the smartphone to their cart, they can select any of these add-ons before checkout.
