Why WooCommerce
The world's most popular e-commerce platform
WooCommerce powers over 36% of all online stores worldwide. Its deep integration with WordPress, open-source flexibility, and massive ecosystem make it the go-to choice for merchants of every size.
WordPress Ecosystem
Built on top of WordPress, WooCommerce inherits a massive plugin ecosystem, a mature theming layer, and a community of millions of developers. Integrations are virtually limitless.
Unmatched Flexibility
Open-source at its core, WooCommerce gives you full control over every aspect of your store. Its hooks and filters architecture means any behavior can be extended or overridden with a custom plugin.
What I Build
What I build for WooCommerce
From payment processing to inventory management - I build WooCommerce plugins that solve real merchant problems with production-ready code.
Payment Gateways
Custom payment gateway integrations for any PSP. Secure tokenization, webhook handling, refund flows, and PCI-compliant checkout experiences built to WooCommerce standards.
Shipping Calculators
Custom shipping rate calculators with carrier API integrations, zone-based pricing, weight and dimension rules, real-time rate lookups, and label generation.
Product Customizers
Custom product option builders, configurators, and personalization tools. Let customers build their own products with dynamic pricing, conditional logic, and visual previews.
Checkout Modifications
Custom checkout fields, multi-step checkout flows, conditional field display, order validation rules, and post-purchase actions that streamline the buying experience.
Subscription Plugins
Recurring payment handling, subscription lifecycle management, plan switching, prorated billing, renewal reminders, and customer self-service portals for subscription-based stores.
Inventory Management
Stock tracking, warehouse integrations, low-stock alerts, bulk import/export, supplier management, and multi-location inventory sync plugins for complex fulfillment needs.
REST API Integrations
Connect WooCommerce to ERPs, CRMs, PIM systems, marketing platforms, and any external service using the WooCommerce REST API and custom endpoints with proper authentication.
Technology Stack
Built with the right tools
Every WooCommerce plugin I build uses platform-native technologies and follows WordPress coding standards for maximum compatibility and long-term maintainability.
PHP
The backbone of WordPress and WooCommerce. 20+ years of PHP experience means clean, performant, and secure code following PSR standards and WordPress best practices.
WordPress Hooks & Filters
Deep expertise in WordPress's action and filter system. Every plugin hooks into the right places - no core modifications, no fragile overrides, just clean extensibility.
WooCommerce API
Full command of WooCommerce's internal APIs - from product CRUD and order management to shipping zones, tax calculations, and the checkout pipeline.
REST API
Custom REST API endpoints, webhook integrations, and third-party service connections built on WordPress's REST API infrastructure with proper authentication and validation.
JavaScript
Modern JavaScript for interactive storefront features, AJAX-powered admin interfaces, and dynamic checkout enhancements. jQuery where WordPress expects it, vanilla JS where it shines.
MySQL
Optimized database queries, custom tables where needed, proper use of WordPress's $wpdb abstraction, and efficient data handling for high-traffic WooCommerce stores.
Development Process
How I build WooCommerce plugins
A structured, transparent process from initial concept to production deployment - ensuring every plugin meets the highest standards of quality and reliability.
Discovery & Scoping
We start by defining the exact problem the plugin needs to solve. I review your store setup, WooCommerce version, existing plugins, and business requirements to create a detailed technical specification.
Architecture & Planning
I design the plugin architecture around WordPress coding standards and WooCommerce best practices. Hook strategy, database design, API contracts, and admin interface wireframes are all mapped out before a line of code is written.
Development & Testing
Iterative development with regular check-ins. Every feature is unit tested and manually verified across multiple WooCommerce and WordPress versions. Security audits are performed throughout.
Deployment & Support
Clean delivery with full documentation, installation instructions, and admin configuration guides. I provide ongoing maintenance, compatibility updates for new WooCommerce releases, and dedicated support.

FAQ
WooCommerce plugin questions answered
Which WordPress and WooCommerce versions do you support?
I target WordPress 6.4+ and WooCommerce 8.0+ for new plugins, ensuring compatibility with the latest releases. I also support the WooCommerce HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage) system and the block-based checkout introduced in recent versions.
Can you build plugins compatible with popular page builders?
Yes. I build WooCommerce plugins that work seamlessly with Elementor, Gutenberg blocks, and other popular page builders. I use WordPress's block editor API and standard hook patterns to ensure compatibility across different site-building approaches.
Do you publish plugins on the WordPress Plugin Directory?
I can publish on both the official WordPress Plugin Directory and distribute plugins privately through custom update servers. For directory submissions, I handle the review process, ensure coding standards compliance, and manage ongoing updates through the WordPress.org SVN repository.
How do you handle WooCommerce plugin updates and compatibility?
I test every plugin against WooCommerce beta releases before they ship, so compatibility issues are caught early. Maintenance packages include proactive updates for new WooCommerce and WordPress versions, security patches, and PHP version compatibility - keeping your plugin running smoothly without surprises.
