    Note:

    The normal products can be converted into PWYW products and vice-versa.

    Also, on the seller profile page, the prices for PWYW products don’t display. If you want to display them, add the following code to the seller profile theme:

    {if $pay_what_you_want_active && $value.type == 7} hidden {/if}

    Frontend

    Moreover, after adding all the codes, this is how the frontend will look like:

    If a customer tries to checkout after entering a price lesser than the minimum amount set from the backend, he will receive a message saying:
    “You must pay at least *minimum amount value*”

    This is all about the Pay What You Want feature app.
