Woocommerce Store Closing

WooCommerce Store Closing plugin is a comprehensive and the most complete store closing system for WooCommerce. Hundreds of online stores use our Store Closing plugin to close their shops to orders for specific periods.

We started to build this plugin with a basic idea, online services need breaks. Except for a very few, most of the online stores need to be closed for certain times. With our plugin, you can close your shop right away with the one-click button. You also can set three different times a day for opening and closing. We even have an upcoming feature for future holiday dates.

RemindMe NEW FEATURE! We enabled RemindMe as a function for the WooCommerce Store Closing plugin. Customers who enter their email addresses into your notification area will receive an email from the RemindMe feature when your store reopens. Click for more details about this great feature

Improving our plugin day by day is our priority. We added lots of new features after we made it great at the closing and opening parts. The plugin has an advanced notification feature, it is possible to use a general one, a daily one, or upcoming, different notifications for different closing types. The countdown for store opening is also a good feature. The Shortcode feature is very useful, it helps you to use a shortcode for notification areas, also if you have multiple languages in your system and your multi-language plugin supports shortcode translations, you can show our message in different languages. The pop-up feature adds a layer to your website and shows your notification about your store situation.

Some products such as subscriptions or prepaid orders need to be available 7×24 even if your store closed. We have designed an exclude system for these situations, you can select a product category to exclude them from Store Closing. This will close your website but products in this category will always be available.

We have fast and effective support for our plugin and our team is checking the latest versions of WooCommerce and WordPress at day one and responding to these changes quickly. We stick with WordPress and WooCommerce defaults, which makes our updates very fast, compatibility is almost %100 with the latest version every time. We’re always up to date and working. Feedbacks are also very important for us. We are improving our code with customer feedback and adding lots of new features with popular requests.

What we offer is more than a basic plugin. We have been developing it regularly for three years and now it is used by over 500 companies worldwide. We are opening and closing WooCommerce stores more than a thousand times every day. If you want a plugin to automatically close your store, our plugin is what you need.
