Virtual products¶
Virtual product is a special type of a Product.
Virtual products are non-tangible items such as memberships, services, warranties. They can be sold individually, or as part of a product bundle.
Like physical products, virtual products can have their own variants, assets or attributes. You can also create catalogs from them, check their completeness and set prices, availability, and stock.

If your user role has the ProductType/Edit permission, you can modify product types and add individual attributes or attribute groups.
To create a virtual product, first, you have to create a virtual product type.

2. From the drop-down list choose "Virtual" type and click Add.
3. Fill in basic product type information.
4. Add fields that describe the product by dragging them from the Field types area to a section on the left, and then configure them.
5. Add attributes by dragging them from the toolbox on the right.

Create virtual product¶
Virtual products are created in the same way as physical ones. To create a virtual product, follow the instruction in Create and edit products. While creating a product, choose the virtual product type that you have created.
