# Additional Description for Options

The Additional Description feature in YayExtra allows you to add extra information to each option in your product add-ons.

**Why use it?**

Sometimes, a simple option name isn’t enough to explain what customers are choosing. With Additional Description, you can provide more details to help them understand better and make confident decisions.

**How it works?**

When setting up an option type (like checkbox, radio button, or select), you’ll see a field called Additional Description. Simply enter the extra information you want to show.

This description will appear alongside the option on the product page.
