Premium Packaging Shouldn't Be Hidden

Some customers want better packaging — eco-friendly materials, branded boxes, or extra protection. But most stores either include it in product cost or don't offer it at all.

Make it optional. Let customers who value premium packaging pay for it. Those who don't? They still get your standard packaging.

Kraft lets you add a packaging fee as a simple checkbox in the cart. No order notes, no custom code.
