Create and edit item modifiers

Item modifiers are customizable options for your items (toppings, add-ons, or special requests) that can be applied at checkout. You can also set requirements for how many modifiers can be selected at checkout. For example, you can create a modifier set of sandwich toppings, and restrict it so that maximum three toppings can be selected.

Modifiers applied to items will display on your customer receipts, in your item library, and in the item details report.

Before you begin

You have two options for creating item modifier sets:

• Create modifiers from the Square Dashboard on a laptop or desktop computer
• Create modifiers directly from the Square POS apps

Make sure you’ve created at least one item in your item library before assigning an item modifier to an item. Learn more about how to create and edit items with Square.

Modifiers aren't compatible with barcode scanners, regardless of whether the item is sold by weight or not.
