Text Box Modifiers

[TheRealChipA]

Greetings,

First, this is a request that applies to the whole Square ecosystem, to all POS.  But since there is not a feature request board for the item catalog, I chose to add it here since I use Square Restaurants App.

In Square Online, we can add what is called a “text box modifier” to items.  This allows us to collect free-format information from customers for things like gift message, engraving text, and so forth.  As useful as it is Online, this could be equally useful in the in-person environment in our stores.

So, my request is to add text box modifier capability to all Square POS as well, by adding it to the regular item catalog like it already exists in the Online item catalog.  Of course, this is also another very good reason for “one item catalog to rule them all,” but that is the subject of another feature request, I believe.  This is just a baby step toward that grand vision! Ha.

Thanks, all!

I've updated the status to "Open". This step in the Feature Request process will be a time in which other Square Sellers can add their use cases to your idea to make it stronger and demonstrate further how much it is needed. Later on, we'll re-visit the most popular feature requests in the "Open for Votes" status and bring them to our Product Team.

To other Sellers who see this feature, please “like” the post and reply with a use case that your business would have. This will help to signal that this feature request is even more important to address.
