Customers often remember a detail after checkout: an engraving, a gift message, a size, or a delivery instruction. The custom note lets them add it to their Shopify order during the edit window, saved with the order for your team.

Why a custom order note helps

Personalization and Engraving

Made-to-order and custom brands collect engraving text, material, or finish details per item, straight from the customer.

Gift Messages

Customers add recipient names, personal messages, or delivery instructions after checkout without emailing support.

Sizing and Fit

Apparel and accessory shops capture size, color, or fit preferences when customers swap products.

B2B and Wholesale

Buyers attach PO numbers, account references, or shipping instructions tied to the order.

How customers add a custom note

1

Open the order edit page

The customer opens their order in the Revize Customer Portal during the edit window.
2

Find the custom note section

The note section shows a pre-filled template (if you set one) so customers see structure instead of a blank box.
3

Write the note

The customer types their details. A character counter shows how much space is left.
4

Save with the order

The customer clicks Save. The note is stored on the order, ready for your team to read.

How the custom note works

What customers can do:
  • Add or edit the note any time during the edit window
  • Follow a pre-filled template you define
  • Review the note before paying when prompted
How it appears in Shopify:
  • Saved as an order custom attribute
  • Shows in the order’s Additional details in Shopify admin
  • Parseable by Shopify Flow, Recharge, and your 3PL exports
The custom note is information for your team, not an automated action. It does not change pricing, products, or shipping on its own.

Configure the custom note

Custom note settings: highlight mode, highlight position, and require note review
Display the note as its own card instead of an accordion item, so it stands out on the order edit page.Highlight position:
  • Above portal: the note card sits above the order edit section
  • Below portal: the note card sits below the order edit section
When customers change their order, the next Pay Now click shows a review modal. They can update the note or continue with what they have. No fields are forced.
Set a starting template so customers see a structure to fill in (for example: Product, Sizing, Gift message, Anything else). It appears in the note field and customers can edit it. Configured under Translations → Customer Portal → Add custom note.
All copy lives under Translations → Customer Portal → Add custom note, per language:
  • Title (optional): the section heading
  • Description (optional): shown above the text area
  • Pre-filled template (optional): appears in the note field, editable by customers
