T-shirts, candles or whatever your product Woo has you covered with unlimited products, no limits. There are also endless product types from something simple, to a ground products, variable products or even digital downloadable products. From variations for small to large or choosing a color is only the beginning. Plus, you have control over each and every single product in your online store. Managing inventory has never been easier with WooCommerce with their inventory management that allows you to set stock levels, backorders and email notifications when a item’s stock is getting too low.
Payment gateways in your shopping cart have many options. From Paypal and major credit cards but also you can accept checks, COD or cash on delivery and a bank transfer.
