You can toggle yes or no if participants are required to purchase the item, if discounts apply (which means that if you have applied discounts to the registration price, they will apply to the add-ons as well), if you want the participant to be able to purchase more than one add-on, and whether the price will be a single fixed price or have varying types and price points. You can also indicate if the participant can set their own price or if you will be setting the price.

Add-Ons in the Cart
When a participant adds their course to the Cart, they will see a green button stating Add to Order for any available Add-Ons. You will see the subtotal increase with the Add On amount.


Once they proceed to Checkout, the participant will be able to complete their order, and see the Add-On separately from the registration price in the Order Summary.
Approving a Drop Request with a Cart Add-On

If a participant chooses to drop their registration that has an Add-On, as the Course Admin when going in to Approve the Drop Request (Help Doc on Drop Request and Approving Drop Requests here), you will have the option whether you want to include the Add-On in the Drop Request Approval.

You will see the Add-On as a separate item in the pending Drop Requests, and you can choose to toggle Yes or No to include in the Refund. Once you make your selection, click Approve at the top of the Drop Request.
