What Is Woocommerce Checkout Add-Ons?
Woocommerce Checkout Add-Ons is developed by WooCommerce and is an eCommerce plugin for WordPress. It belongs to the ecommerce category on WPExclusive, alongside other tools for optimizing store checkouts and product pages.
This extension solves the limitation of the default checkout process by allowing merchants to accept tips, offer gift wrapping, or collect file uploads. It is designed for online store owners who need to modify the final purchase step to capture extra revenue or specific order details, and works seamlessly alongside the core WooCommerce platform.
Checkout Add-Ons Features
Checkout Add-Ons expands your order screen with flexible data collection methods.
Custom Checkout Fields
You can add several different types of fields based on your requirements. The extension supports text fields, radio buttons, file uploads, and select dropdowns. Customers can view and modify these fields during checkout to add tips, gift wrapping, or rush handling to their purchases. Explore similar features in our WordPress ecommerce plugins.
Conditional Logic
Store owners can create conditional add-ons that appear or change based on specific factors. These rules trigger based on the cart subtotal, specific products currently in the cart, or the value of another selected add-on. This ensures customers only see relevant fields during their purchase flow.
Dynamic Order Totals
Checkout Add-Ons dynamically updates order details and the final total at checkout as options are selected or modified. If an add-on carries a flat fee or a percentage cost, the cart total reflects the change instantly. Customers can then view their selected add-ons from order detail pages and confirmation emails.
Export Compatibility
This extension is fully compatible with the WooCommerce Customer/Order/Coupon Export plugin. Two new columns are automatically added to the order export for default or built-in formats. Exported add-on data is also placed in a dedicated XML tag when using the built-in Default or Legacy formats.
Pricing
Check current pricing on the Woocommerce Checkout Add-Ons sales page, as retail costs depend on the license type. WPExclusive members access it as part of their plan.

|---|---|---|---|
| WPExclusive Membership | From $9.99/month | Unlimited | Checkout Add-Ons + full library |
For developers managing multiple sites, a WPExclusive membership covers Checkout Add-Ons plus hundreds of other plugins and themes, usually costing less than one premium license.

Woocommerce Checkout Add-Ons Use Cases
Accepting Tips and Donations
Store owners often want a simple way to collect tips or charitable donations at checkout. Checkout Add-Ons solves this by letting you add a flat fee or percentage-based radio button right above the payment button. Customers can opt-in, increasing their order total before completing the transaction. Find similar options in our WordPress ecommerce plugins.
Offering Premium Services
Merchants selling physical goods frequently offer gift wrapping, express handling, or custom messages. By setting up a text field and a paid checkbox, shoppers configure these extras while finalizing their purchase. The details are saved directly to the order metadata.
Agencies and Developers Managing Multiple Client Sites
Agencies building custom storefronts use Checkout Add-Ons to avoid hardcoding custom fields into child themes. A WPExclusive membership eliminates per-site licensing costs, allowing developers to deploy this extension across dozens of client stores within a single subscription.
