Order on WhatsApp for WooCommerce: Turn WhatsApp Chats Into Faster Orders
Order on WhatsApp for WooCommerce is a WooCommerce extension that lets shoppers place orders through WhatsApp by adding an “Order on WhatsApp” button across key store pages. It streamlines buying for customers who prefer messaging, while helping merchants capture orders with complete checkout details sent directly in the WhatsApp message.
Built for store owners who want a more conversational checkout experience, this WhatsApp ordering plugin also includes a “Share on WhatsApp” button so customers can quickly share products with friends and family—often leading to more referrals and higher intent traffic.
Key Features of Order on WhatsApp for WooCommerce
Let customers place orders on WhatsApp from multiple pages
Add “Order on WhatsApp” where customers make decisions, including:
- Shop page
- Product pages
- Cart page
- Category pages (where applicable)
- Checkout page option (customers can select WhatsApp ordering during checkout)
A checkout form can appear in a popup when the customer clicks the WhatsApp order button on supported pages, helping you collect essential checkout details before the WhatsApp message is created.
Get full checkout details inside WhatsApp
When a shopper submits the checkout form, the WhatsApp message can include the important order information—such as customer details, product information, and shipping-related data—so you can confirm and fulfill orders efficiently.
Add “Share on WhatsApp” to boost viral product sharing
Alongside ordering, the extension supports a “Share on WhatsApp” button on multiple pages, making it easy for shoppers to recommend products through WhatsApp messages.
“Pay Now” link workflow for pending payments
If a payment is pending, the plugin can support sending a “Pay Now” link via WhatsApp so customers can complete payment more easily after initiating the order conversation.
Control who sees WhatsApp ordering
You can tailor availability with options such as:
- Enable WhatsApp order button only for logged-in customers
- Show WhatsApp ordering only for specific products or categories
- Apply WhatsApp ordering store-wide when desired
Admin-side order creation and order status control
For stores that want stronger operations, the extension includes options to:
- Create orders in the WooCommerce admin when placed through WhatsApp
- Choose a default order status for admin-created WhatsApp orders
Supports variable products
If you sell variations (like size or color), the extension supports variable products so customers can order the correct variation through WhatsApp.
Button Placement, Visibility, and Customization
Display options across your store
You can place the WhatsApp order and share buttons on the pages that matter most for conversions—shop, product, and cart pages—so customers can choose WhatsApp ordering at the moment they’re ready.
Customize the look and feel
To match your store branding, you can customize the WhatsApp button experience, including:
- Button text (label)
- Padding and border radius
- Background color and text color
- Border styling and widths (where available)
- Placement relative to “Add to cart”
- Optional visibility controls like hiding the WhatsApp button on desktop
Optional cart experience controls
Depending on your store strategy, you can also hide the “Add to cart” button on shop and product pages, shifting the primary conversion action toward WhatsApp ordering.
Notifications and Customer Communication
A key advantage of WhatsApp-based ordering is fast customer communication. This extension includes options to help keep customers informed, including:
- Customer notifications upon order confirmation
- Notifications to customers when order status changes
These tools can help reduce follow-up questions and keep the buying flow smooth.

- Stores where customers commonly ask pre-purchase questions (fashion, custom goods, high-consideration products)
- Mobile-heavy audiences who prefer WhatsApp over email forms
- Merchants who want a conversational sales process without abandoning WooCommerce product pages
- Businesses using WhatsApp as a primary sales/support channel and wanting to reduce checkout friction
- Shops that benefit from social sharing and word-of-mouth product referrals
