WooCommerce is one of the most powerful eCommerce platforms you can use. Out of the box it’s got loads of functionality, but clients often request additional upgrades, including:

Dynamic Pricing

https://woocommerce.com/products/dynamic-pricing

This feature allows you to add bulk discounts, role-based pricing and much more.

You can configure bulk discounts for each product in your store by creating a table of quantities and discount amounts. Choose from fixed price adjustments, percentage adjustments or set a fixed price for the product. You even have the option to choose roles the pricing rule should be applied for.

Decide how to tally the quantities used in the quantity pricing table, which you can do based on the cart quantity of the product, each individual variation, and each cart line item (which is particularly useful when using Product Add-ons — more on those later), or based on the specific categories in the cart.

Cart Notices

https://woocommerce.com/products/cart-notices

This allows you to display dynamic, actionable messages to your customers as they check out, giving you a chance to increase sales by targeting people who have already shown an interest in your products.

Improve the shopping experience, and improve your sales margins with cart notices.

Product CSV Import Suite

https://woocommerce.com/products/product-csv-import-suite/

Import, merge, and export products and variations to and from your WooCommerce website using a CSV file (a simple text file that contains a list of data).

This will allow you to save time when you’re creating and updating complex products and managing your product catalogue. Product CSV Import Suite lets you import thousands of products and supports complex products and custom data from Bookings, Product Vendors, Brands, a Google Product Feed and more.

Product Bundles

https://woocommerce.com/products/product-bundles

Offer personalised product bundles to your customers, including bulk discount packages and assembled products.

This can encompass every product bundle you could ever need to offer — from creating discount packages to selling custom skateboards, computers, furniture, and even personalised cupcake boxes!

Make sure your customers always come back for more by giving them a personalised shopping experience on your site.

Product Add-ons

https://woocommerce.com/products/product-add-ons/

This feature allows you to offer add-ons like gift wrapping, special messages or other options for your products.

From adding a personal engraving to giving the option to upgrade to premium fabric, customising products is another great way to set your business apart from the competition and keep customers coming back for more. With Product Add-Ons, you can offer special options to your customers with the greatest of ease.

Product Add-Ons allow your customers to personalise products while they’re shopping on your online store. Skip the follow-up email requests and give customers what they want before they’ve finished checking out.

Product Recommendations

https://woocommerce.com/products/product-recommendations/

Wouldn’t up be great if your eCommerce site could provide smarter up-sells, cross-sells, and “frequently bought together” recommendations? How about measuring their impact with in-depth analytics?

That’s exactly what you get with the Product Recommendations feature. You can offer more intelligent up-sells and cross-sells, and even create your own, rule-based recommendation engines. Improve the shopping experience across your entire store, with relevant recommendations placed at strategic locations, and then measure their impact and optimise your strategies with in-depth analytics.

Back In Stock Notifications

https://woocommerce.com/products/back-in-stock-notifications

Keep your customers engaged by notifying them when your products are restocked.

With Back In Stock Notifications, you can:

  • Add waitlists for sold out products that anyone can join.
  • Send automated emails to your customers when their favourite products are restocked.
  • Recover lost sales, build customer loyalty, and gain deeper insights into your inventory.

Postcode address validation

https://woocommerce.com/products/postcodeaddress-validation

Postcode address validation allows you to streamline your checkout process by having your customer validate or lookup their address during checkout. By selecting their address from a dropdown list, it saves them having to fill out the entire thing.

This is another great way to simplify your checkout process, improving customer satisfaction and improving your bottom line!

Newsletter subscription

https://woocommerce.com/products/newsletter-subscription/

Allow your customers to subscribe to MailChimp, MailerLite, Sendgrid, Sendinblue, Campaign Monitor, and other providers’ mailing list(s) via a widget or by opting in during checkout.

Having a mailing list is absolutely essential if you’re selling things online because you can target customers that you’ve previously engaged with before, sending them seasonal deals and special offers on an automated basis.

Woo Subscriptions

https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-subscriptions

This feature allows customers to subscribe to your products or services and pay on a weekly, monthly or annual basis.

With WooCommerce Subscriptions, you can create and manage products with recurring payments — payments that will give you residual revenue you can easily track and count on.

WooCommerce Subscriptions allows you to introduce a variety of subscriptions for physical or virtual products and services. Create product-of-the-month clubs, weekly service subscriptions or even yearly software billing packages. Add sign-up fees, offer free trials, or set expiration periods.

Subscription-based models are great for businesses because they provide a more steady, reliable revenue and allow for better financial and inventory management.

Apple Pay/Google Pay

This feature helps you streamline the checkout process for customers on your website by inserting a Google/Apple Pay button.

When someone makes a purchase, Apple Pay/Google Pay uses a device-specific number and unique transaction code, preventing the need for card details to be filled out on the site and increasing your conversion rate.

Apple Pay and Google Pay are used by around 327 million people worldwide, and they greatly improve the checkout experience of customers, giving them peace of mind about the security of their card details and greatly reducing the bounce rate (when people quickly leave your website) for your checkout page.
