Purchase WooCommerce Zapier¶
To use WooCommerce Zapier, you will need to purchase the WooCommerce Zapier extension from the Woo Extension Store.
Zapier Account¶
You will also need a Zapier Account.
Zapier Offers Both Free and Paid Plans
WooCommerce Zapier can be used with a free Zapier plan, however, advanced functionality such as Premium Apps and Multi-step Zaps (to use Filter and Paths) are only available for paid plans.
Free plans also limit the number of tasks per month, so WooCommerce stores with higher order volumes will be more likely to need a paid Zapier plan.
For further pricing information see Zapier’s Plans & Pricing page.
If you don’t have one, you can sign up on the Zapier website. Select the Sign Up button or just enter your information in the available form.
