### What is Mini: Custom Fields? <a href="#what-is-mini-restock-and-waitlist" id="what-is-mini-restock-and-waitlist"></a>

Mini: Custom Fields allows merchants to easily add personalization and customization options to their product pages, enabling customers to provide custom input before checkout.&#x20;

With flexible field types like **text boxes**, **dropdowns**, **checkboxes**, **date pickers**, and **file uploads**, merchants can collect **engraving notes**, **gift messages**, **order-specific** details, and more. These fields can be set at the **variant level** and configured to include **extra charges** for customizations, helping merchants offer tailored products while increasing average order value.
