How it sells itself

Helium Customer Fields is your one-stop shop to collect and manage customer data.

Custormer & Cart Attribute helps you to create additional fields on the customer account registration page, account page and cart page. With this app, you can get the necessary data directly from your customers in an easy way. Place fields on the registration page to know age, preferences and interests and all other information you may need.

Key points

  • Approve Wholesale/B2B customers with account approval or email verification
  • Allow customers to edit their own data (name, email, or custom fields)
  • Configure automatic and/or conditional customer tags to organize customer groups
