WOOCOMMERCE INTEGRATION

WooCommerce Stores Built on WordPress

WooCommerce turns a WordPress site into a store where shoppers browse, choose several items and see item, shipping and tax costs before they pay.

How we set up WooCommerce

The WordPress site your team already edits can take orders too. WooCommerce is the most widely used store plug-in for WordPress and works with a large range of themes, and our WooCommerce development covers new e-commerce projects and existing WordPress sites alike.

Setup covers everything between the first product and the first sale. We make WooCommerce work with your theme or customize it to the look you want, connect payment gateways including PayPal and Stripe, configure taxes, categories and attributes, and upload your products.

Then the store is yours to run, and we make sure you feel confident running it. We train you to manage orders and to read the sales, stock and review reports in the WordPress dashboard, so day-to-day decisions rest on your own numbers.

Payment processors for a WooCommerce store

A developer and a shop owner check an online order on a laptop at a craft shop counter.

Online payments switch on once the pages are final and the products are listed. WooCommerce connects to PayPal, Amazon Pay and other major processors, and if your account uses a different processor, we build the connection to it.

We place a real test order on every payment path before the store opens, so launch day runs smoothly. Most stores add PayPal, Stripe or both, giving buyers ways to pay they already know.

Themes, shipping and reports

Themes decide how the store looks, and shipping decides what a buyer pays at the end. We style the product, cart and checkout pages to match your site, then configure shipping rates by geographic zone, package size, delivery time or any combination of the three.

The reports built into WooCommerce show sales, reviews, stock and overall store performance. Read together, they tell you what is selling, what is running low and which product pages need attention.

Training for the person who runs the store

A store owner learns the order screen on a laptop, a trainer pointing.

A store succeeds when the person running it feels at home behind the counter. We walk you through the front end your shoppers use and the back end you use: adding products, handling an order, issuing a refund and reading a report.

Questions that come up later go to the same web design and development team that built the store, so the answers come from people who know exactly how it was put together.

WooCommerce Integration Questions & Answers

WooCommerce or a hosted platform?

WooCommerce runs on hosting you choose, which gives you full control and room to customize, along with updates to keep up with. A hosted platform runs the store on its own servers for a monthly subscription and takes much of that upkeep off your hands. We build both and recommend the one that fits your catalog and your team.

Which payment gateways work with WooCommerce?

Major gateways including PayPal, Stripe and Authorize.net all have WooCommerce connections. We configure the one that fits your account, and when your processor has no ready connection, we build one for it.

Who keeps WooCommerce updated?

Your choice. We train your staff to run updates, or our maintenance plan keeps WordPress, WooCommerce and your plug-ins current and backed up on a regular schedule.

Technical note for your team

Order storage, extensions and safe WooCommerce updates

Your orders stay safe through every WooCommerce update, because we check each extension and test on a private copy of your store before anything goes live.

Technical details for your team

Orders are the most valuable records in your store, and WooCommerce has changed where it keeps them. It now stores orders in High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS): dedicated tables built for commerce, in place of the shared WordPress post tables.

New stores have it on by default, and older stores turn it on in the advanced settings. WooCommerce flags any extension that is not yet compatible, which shows us exactly which plug-ins to check before an update touches your orders.

Owners who would rather leave servers behind can move to a hosted platform with Shopify themes and checkout extensions, and we migrate the WooCommerce catalog, buyer accounts and orders across. For stores staying on WooCommerce, every update we run follows four steps.

  • We list every extension that reads or writes orders and confirm it supports the new order storage.
  • We test checkout, refunds and reports on a private copy of your store.
  • We switch the new order storage on in that copy first, then on the live store, with a backup between steps.
  • We remove plug-ins nobody uses, so every future update is quicker to test.
