How to Set Up Option Levels
What are Option Levels?
Option levels allow customers to modify an individual option selection, such as specifying "double" for a topping/ingredient or "no" to exclude a given topping/ingredient.
Sample Applications:
- Cheese on a Pizza: No, Easy, Normal, Extra
- Green Peppers on a Chef Salad: No, Easy, Normal
- Spice Level on a Burrito: No, Normal, Super, Red Hot
How are Option Levels displayed on my menu?
Option levels are set up on option groups where multiple options are allowed. Here's how it looks like on a Cheeseburger's condiments option group:
How do I set up Option Levels on my Paytronix Order & Delivery menu?

- Extra Cost: Adds a fixed cost to the option price (e.g., adds $1)

How do I attach an Option Level to a menu item?
So, you have created your very first Option Level and want to attach it to a menu item? Let's use the Cheeseburger condiment example.
- Create an option group for the menu item (if you don't have one yet) by clicking "Add Option". Make sure to Allow Multiple Selections. Enter your desired options and hit "Create Option"
- Click the "Levels" drop-down menu, and select the option level you just created (e.g., Condiments)
-
The Option Level is now assigned to the option group. Save everything by clicking " Save Menu Item" at the bottom of the page.
