WooCommerce hosting questions
Helpful answers before you set up your store.
What is WooCommerce hosting?
WooCommerce is the open-source ecommerce platform for WordPress. WooCommerce hosting combines WordPress with the storage, database capacity, processing power and management tools an online store needs.
Do I pay extra to use WooCommerce?
No. The core WooCommerce plugin is free to use. Your Ecenica plan covers the hosting and resources needed to run it, rather than a WooCommerce platform fee. Optional paid themes and plugins, plus payment processing fees, are separate.
Will WooCommerce be installed for me?
Yes. New hosting orders placed through this WooCommerce page receive WordPress with WooCommerce installed. Orders placed through the Managed WordPress page continue to receive standard WordPress setup.
Can I build my shop with free themes and plugins?
Yes. Start with a free WooCommerce-compatible theme and use the core tools to add products and manage orders in WordPress. Add free plugins when they suit your shop.
Can I add a paid theme or plugins later?
Yes. Choose a paid theme for a different look or paid plugins for features such as bookings, subscriptions or advanced shipping. Buy only what your shop needs, directly from the provider.
Can I accept Stripe and PayPal payments?
WooCommerce supports payment extensions for providers including Stripe and PayPal. You choose and configure the extension and provider account; approval, transaction fees and provider terms are separate.
Can I use other payment gateways?
Yes. WooCommerce can connect to other providers through payment gateway extensions. Check that your chosen provider supports your country and account before setup.
Can I set shipping options for different areas?
Yes. Configure shipping zones and methods for the areas you serve. Carrier integrations or advanced rules may require an extension.
Can WooCommerce track product stock?
Yes. Enable stock management to track product quantities and update availability as orders are placed.
Can I set tax rates in WooCommerce?
WooCommerce lets you configure tax settings and rates for your store. The right rates depend on where and what you sell, so check with a qualified tax professional.
Can I sell digital products or services?
WooCommerce can be extended for physical and digital products, services, bookings and subscriptions. Some features require a separate extension, which may have its own cost.
Which plan is right for my store?
Any plan gives you WooCommerce installed and ready to build on. Business and BusinessPro add Redis object cache, which reduces repeated database work as your store grows. BusinessPro also adds staging and cloning, so you can test changes on a copy before they go live. Compare the full details in the plan table, or contact us and we'll help you choose.
Can you migrate my existing WooCommerce store?
Yes. Annual Managed WordPress plans include a professional migration. Tell us that the site uses WooCommerce so we can plan for its database and order data.
