WooCommerce Development

Extendable, adaptable, scalable and eminently customisable, WooCommerce is the open source ecommerce platform for WordPress that today powers 20% of the world’s top 1 million online stores. Through WooCommerce, a complete online shop can be added to any WordPress installation, with an active marketplace of extensions, plugins and API integrations offering further valuable functionality.

Online retailers can leverage WooCommerce’s extensive feature set to easily manage the full ecommerce lifecycle, including setting up product lines and custom taxonomies, providing a wide range of payment methods, and coordinating order management and fulfilment. The ecommerce platform also supports multi-lingual and multi-currency offerings, to grow international reach and engagement.

As the ecommerce partner to WordPress VIP – the fully-managed, enterprise WordPress offering from Automattic – WooCommerce is ideal for organisations of any scale that are looking to build out their online retail proposition. Current WooCommerce clients include leading brand names from across the globe, including Aeropress, Weber, Singer, Dr Scholl’s and our own clients OKdo and RS Components.

Its high levels of customisation across content, functionality and appearance enable it to be tailored to suit the specific needs of different industries, audiences and geographical regions, across physical and digital products and both B2B and B2C markets.

Building on WordPress VIP also brings with it all the benefits of this powerful and flexible platform, including blazing-fast performance, enhanced security, and a comprehensive customer service offering to safeguard the availability and stability of your online store.

A key feature of WooCommerce is its ease-of-use, integrating seamlessly with WordPress and providing a suite of readily-available Gutenberg blocks to enable organisations to rapidly launch a high-quality ecommerce offering. It also supports popular payment methods including major credit cards, bank transfers, cheques, and cash on delivery as standard, with over 140 additional channels available to integrate including Stripe, PayPal, Square, and Amazon Pay.

By partnering with an experienced WooCommerce development agency, retailers can further expand and enhance their platform with a range of product types including physical and digital items, subscriptions, bundles and even appointments. Your WooCommerce development partner can also help you integrate additional features and functionality from a large and active marketplace – another key feature of WooCommerce – ranging from analytics and marketing capabilities to multichannel and point of sale extensions.

WooCommerce is inherently scalable, able to support product ranges running to tens of thousands of SKUs and millions of orders a day. It also integrates with some of the world’s largest shipping and delivery companies including FedEx, USPS and Amazon Fulfilment, to ensure your products reach customers wherever they are across the globe.

WooCommerce is also built with international ecommerce considerations in mind, to support increased reach and geographical targeting. Working together with WordPress, translations across a wide variety of languages can be managed with ease, and product prices can be displayed in a user’s relevant currency to streamline the purchase process.

At Box UK our WordPress and WooCommerce developers are also highly skilled in integrating complex back-office integrations with the platforms, including tax and compliance engines that enable you to adhere to any region-specific requirements when selling your goods.

WooCommerce provides all the features and functionality online retailers need to deliver an intuitive and enjoyable shopping experience, whether they are extending their physical offering to digital channels or migrating an existing ecommerce platform to support continued growth and diversification.

WooCommerce also offers all the advantages of open source software, giving you access to a wide pool of knowledge and expertise when building and maintaining your WooCommerce installation. The open source nature of WooCommerce also powers its marketplace of plugins and extensions, which can help minimise custom development costs.

As it’s built on WordPress, the most popular content management system in the world, you also benefit from a familiar and proven back-end interface, speeding up onboarding and helping to reduce administration costs.
