# Switch
A **Switch** is an on/off toggle for a value - customers turn it on with a single click. Use several switches together when more than one choice is allowed.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Plan:** **Switch** is available on the **Platinum** plan and above. On the Free plan you can still try it on one live product with a Premium option set. See [Plans and feature availability](/product-options/getting-started/plans-and-features.md).
{% endhint %}
## When to use a Switch
* **Product features** - turn on gift wrapping or another add-on service.
* **Yes/No questions** - a single clear choice, such as opting in to updates.
## How to add a Switch option
### Step 1: Add the option
Open **1. Add options**, click **Add option**, tick **Switch** under **Choice list** on the **New options** tab, then click **Add options**.
### Step 2: Name it and add values
Enter the **Label on product** (e.g., "Add Gift Box and Greeting Card") and add the **Option values** (e.g., Yes/No). Tick **Required field** if customers must choose before checking out, or **Hide option label** to hide the label.
### Step 3: Save and test
Click **Save**, then open the product page on your store to check that the Switch works correctly.
## Option settings
Set only what you need - all of the settings below are optional. In the **Option values** table, click **Columns** to show **Add-on**, **Help text**, **SKU** or **Quantity** for each value:
* **Add-on** - charge extra for a value (**Extra fee**, Advanced plan and above) or link it to a Shopify variant (**Upsell product**, Platinum and above). See [Manage add-on (additional fee for option)](/product-options/advanced-setup/manage-add-on-additional-fee-for-option.md).
* **SKU** - a SKU for that value. Advanced plan and above.
* **Quantity** - let customers choose how many of that value they want. Platinum plan and above. See [How to Use the "Quantity" Feature for Options](/product-options/advanced-setup/how-to-use-the-quantity-feature-for-options.md).
### Default value
Toggle **Default** for the value that should be pre-selected when the customer opens the product page. Available on the **Advanced** plan and above.
How it looks on your storefront:
### Help text
Add a short note explaining what to choose, shown as a **Tooltip**, **Below the option title**, **Beside the option title**, or **Below the option**. Available on the **Platinum** plan and above.
Example of Help text shown as a Tooltip on the storefront:
### Limit how many values can be selected
Set **Min** and **Max** to control how many values a customer can turn on. If they turn on fewer or more than allowed, OPTIS shows a message below the field, e.g. **Min selector: 2** or **Max selector: 5**. Available on the **Advanced** plan and above. See [Limit Min/Max Selectors](/product-options/faq/limit-min-max-selectors-in-checkbox-button-options-swatch.md).
### Show or hide with Visibility (conditional logic)
Show or hide the Switch based on another option. Available on the **Advanced** plan and above. See [How to set up Conditional logics?](/product-options/advanced-setup/how-to-set-up-conditional-logics.md).
### Layout
In the **Display** tab: set **Option width** (**25%**, **33%**, **50%**, **67%**, **75%** or **100%**) to control how much horizontal space the option takes, and **Option value orientation** (**Horizontal** or **Vertical**) to lay the values out in a row or stack them.
