Add a checkbox and multiple options to a WooCommerce product page

Updated: February 23, 2023 / Plugin Tutorials, Plugin Updates

Learn how to add a checkbox, multi-select fields & more options for a WooCommerce product page with the FREE plugin! Let's find out how to add a checkbox, radio, text fields, and multiple product options better than default variations and WooCommerce attributes can offer!

The WooCommerce variations lack the option to choose the field type, and attributes appear only as additional information. Is there a way to add a new field like a checkbox or more product options to a WooCommerce product?

Yes! What's more, you can enrich the WooCommerce product page with custom fields and multiple options with a free plugin. Let's begin!

How to add product options in WooCommerce?

Why is it so useful?

Were I to answer this question only with a few words, I’d say: it certainly enriches your product.

Undeniably, adding as much information as possible makes your product page more attractive. This way the user may personalize the item as per his preferences. At the same time, by allowing him to do it, you gain a competitive edge. As a result, you sell more and consequently - earn more. As easy as that!

Today, I will show you a free plugin to customize your WooCommerce products by adding additional custom fields (checkbox, radio, multi-select, multi-checkbox, and more)!

Add a checkbox to the WooCommerce product

Sometimes you would like to add a simple checkbox to the WooCommerce product page:

WooCommerce add checkbox to product
WooCommerce product checkbox

What's more, it would be great to add such a checkbox with a few clicks! For example:

Add a checkbox to the WooCommerce product

You can do that with a free plugin. I will tell you about it in a while. But you can get it right away. Download the product page customizer →

Let's now see the multi-checkbox field that you may add with the plugin!

Multiple checkbox field type: examples

If you need more options for customers to choose from, it's better to add a multi-checkbox field.

Food delivery restaurants 🍔 🍟

Firstly, food ordering websites and apps. Multi checkboxes work great for any takeaway restaurant, which offers online food delivery. Give your customers the possibility to add extra toppings to their pizzas, check the allergies or intolerance they suffer from, or mark all the extras they are craving for.

Clothing 🩳 👙 👚

Secondly, online shops for clothing personalization. Let your customers personalize their clothes. Allow them to add some inscription on a shirt, cap, or socks. Prepare a multiple-choice list with items they can modify, as desired. Let's see the WooCommerce product with a checkbox for product variations:

Of course, you may add a simple checkbox to the WooCommerce product with variations too:

Questionnaires and surveys 📋 🗳️

Thirdly, questionnaires and checklists. Ask your customers how they found out about your business. Was it a TV commercial? A word-of-mouth recommendation? Prepare a multiple-choice questionnaire and find out.

Reward customers for their loyalty 🙂

In addition to all of the above, you can also reward your customers for their loyalty. In other words, add some extra gifts to their orders. Let them choose from one or more available options. Do you want to reward them with a discount code or a physical item? Remember you can always check some answers by default and set the minimum and maximum number of checked boxes.

How to add multiple product options in WooCommerce?

Ok, so let’s see how you can add this field type to your WooCommerce product page. First things first: download the Flexible Product Fields plugin.

You can choose from 18 different field types available in the free version of the plugin, including the multiple checkbox fields.
