install and configure

  • Hello everyone… I have some very specific questions… I was watching https://woocommerce.com/

    And from what I read, you have to either have a hosting provider such as wordpress.com or apparently you can also set up your own server?

    Whether it is your own server or a provider, it is basically a wordpress server with the woocommerce plugin? Do you have to have the knowledge of setting up the store in WordPress and creating the store?

    The other thing, WooCommerce has subscription payment? For example, I bought a plan of 10 dollars for 12 months, does WooCommerce carry out the administrative part of charging the 10 dollar fee every month for 12 months? see if one month the payment is not made?? generate a service outage, etc.?

    And finally, where can I see the payment gateways you have to configure?

    What are the associated costs? the supplier’s payment and is there any other charge?

    Thank you so much!

    Hello @torno!

    And from what I read, you have to either have a hosting provider such as wordpress.com or apparently you can also set up your own server?

    Yes, that’s the beauty of WooCommerce, you can run on your own server with complete control over your data.

    Whether it is your own server or a provider, it is basically a wordpress server with the woocommerce plugin?

    Also yes.

    The other thing, WooCommerce has subscription payment?

    Yes, but not by default, you’ll need this extension. WooCommerce, at its core, is simply a set of extended features of WordPress itself. For instance, instead of traditional blog posts, you have products, which are essentially modified versions of posts. Similarly, instead of post comments, you have reviews, which are modified comments.

    For example, I bought a plan of 10 dollars for 12 months, does WooCommerce carry out the administrative part of charging the 10 dollar fee every month for 12 months? see if one month the payment is not made?? generate a service outage, etc.?

    The WooCommerce Subscription extension is very capable, but for a definitive answer, you should contact the WooCommerce team directly. You can reach them through this link: https://woocommerce.com/my-account/contact-support/

    This forum is primarily for WooCommerce core topics. : )

    And finally, where can I see the payment gateways you have to configure?

    There are tons of payment integrations that work with WooCommerce, here are the ones I suggest sticking with since you plan to have subscription-based products: https://woocommerce.com/document/subscriptions/payment-gateways/

    What are the associated costs? the supplier’s payment and is there any other charge?

    WooCommerce is completely free, as for the payment gateways, it depends on the service, but most services won’t charge you extra because you’re using WooCommerce.

    Cheers!

    sabes cual de esta lista puede funcionar para Chile?

    All of the following extensions should, in theory, support Chilean merchants:

    I suggest reaching out to the team behind the payment gateway you’re interested in to get a definitive answer.
