<h2>Components and Packages (Beta)</h2>

<p>We&#8217;ve just released Components and Packages. Components and Packages allow you to sell products that are made up of other products and then edit them live on the sellscreen &#8211; what no lettuce and extra cheese on that burger? No problems!</p>
<p>To enable this new feature, head to the general settings and flick the switch for Components and Packages.</p>
