# Globo Product Options, Variant

Unlimited custom product options for every store. Let customers personalize products with a live preview.

Shopify limits each product to 2,048 variants. Globo Product Options helps you overcome this limitation by adding unlimited custom product options, such as text fields, file uploads, dropdowns, checkboxes, color swatches, and more.

With flexible product options and personalization features, you can let customers customize products to their preferences, create personalized items, and add extra charges for selected options. You can also assign specific option sets to the products where they are needed.

#### Key Features:

* **Multiple product option types:** Text input, file upload, color swatch, variant image, dropdown, checkbox, and more.
* **Add-on pricing:** Add an additional cost when customers select specific options.
* **Conditional logic:** Show or hide options based on customers' previous selections.
* **CSV import & export:** Import and export product options and variants using CSV files.
* **Product personalization:** Let customers personalize products with text, images, custom fields, and live previews.

## Start here

If you’ve just installed the app, follow these three steps below in order. They’ll guide you through setting up your first product option and getting it displayed on your live product page.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### [Install the app](/options/getting-started/install-the-app.md)

Install the app from the Shopify App Store, approve the required permissions, and choose a plan or start your free trial.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### [Quickstart](/options/getting-started/quickstart.md)

Create your first option set, add an option, and choose which products the option set should apply to.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### [Enable the app embed](/options/getting-started/enable-the-app-embed.md)

Enable the app embed in your active theme so your product options can appear on the storefront. Options won’t be displayed until the app embed is enabled.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Important:** Two things must be in place before an option can appear on your storefront:

* The **app embed** is enabled on your active theme.
* The option set has a **product rule** that matches the product you’re viewing.

If your options aren’t showing up, check these two settings first. See [Options are not showing up](/options/help/troubleshooting.md) for more troubleshooting steps.
