Who this is for: studio operators (admin panel) · Plan: all plans · Product: Podyx V2
If your base service is the airline ticket, add-ons are where the studio actually earns. They are the extras a client stacks on top of a session: an engineer, extra gear, editing time, a second camera, a podcast trailer.
Add-ons do two things at once. They give clients full flexibility to build a session around their exact needs and budget, and they lift the value of every booking for you. A lean base price gets clients in the door; thoughtful add-ons are how you grow the order from there.

🛠 Create an add-on
Click Add new.
Set a name, description, and price, plus a price unit (Per Session, Per Hour, or Project) so the total reads correctly at checkout.
Save. Reorder and set Active or Inactive as needed.
✅ Default add-ons
If certain add-ons almost always go with a service, mark them as defaults on that service (in the service editor). They are pre-selected whenever it is booked, saving clicks for the typical order, and the client can still change them.
💡 Only default the extras most clients genuinely want, so totals never feel like a surprise.
⬆️ Service upgrades
Upgrades are add-ons tied to a specific service that pop up the instant a client selects it, a contextual upsell at the best possible moment. Attach them at the bottom of the service editor and customize the prompt text. Preview how it reads in the booking flow before you rely on it.
🧠 Why add-ons matter
This is your margin: the base covers the space, add-ons carry the profit.
Flexibility wins bookings: clients pay only for what they need, so price is rarely a dealbreaker.
Higher average order: small extras compound across every session.
Natural upselling: defaults and upgrades do the suggesting for you.
Done well, add-ons turn a flat price list into a flexible menu that quietly grows revenue on every booking.
⚠️ Things to double-check
The price unit matches how you actually charge (session, hour, or project).
Default add-ons are only the ones most clients truly want.
Upgrade prompts read smoothly in a test booking.
✅ Summary
Add-ons give clients control and give you margin. Default the common ones, use upgrades for a well-timed nudge, and let the extras do the selling so every booking is worth more.
