YITH WooCommerce Multi-Step Checkout - WordPress Plugin

It allows streamline the checkout process by splitting it into multiple steps.

 

Plugin Features

• You can set the checkout type that your users prefer: many A/B split tests have proved that online buyers prefer a neat view without too many fields on the same page when ending the checkout process.
• You can substantially reduce the percentage of abandoned carts caused by a too long checkout page and with too many fields to fill in.
• You can reduce the number of steps and the cognitive effort required to the user by combining some steps of the checkout process into one (Billing & Shipping, Order info & Payment).

A/B split testing on checkout pages (analysis made to find out which checkout structure works better on e-commerce sites) has shown that a multi-step layout is the best option for a better user experience during the purchase process.

A multi-step structure helps customers feel more comfortable during the payment as they understand which step of the process they are in.

During the checkout, customers are generally required to add a lot of details on the same page and this process might seem long and confusing. In one word: overwhelming.

A multi-step checkout helps to sort data and split them into different sections displayed one after the other: this makes it much clearer from the customer’s point of view. It reduces the possibility of messing up information or making errors while filling in the forms. Cart abandonment and other common problems of websites with complex checkouts are greatly reduced.
You can choose among 10 different layouts for the timeline, five of them in vertical style and five of them horizontal. Set the layout that best suits your e-commerce website and the one to show to mobile users.

To make sure that the checkout style can suit every e-commerce theme, you will be able to customize the colors of every step and status (previous, next and current step) and all the texts.

Identify your steps with numbers or icons before the text. You can choose among the many high-quality icons we’ve designed for you or upload your own ones.

Usability tests confirm that a multi-step checkout is much more effective if there are no more than four steps in total. To streamline the process, combine Billing and Shipping Info into one step and Order and Payment Info into another step.

With the AJAX validation you can prevent customers from going on to the next step unless they have completed all mandatory fields.

If your products don’t need to be shipped, just disable the Shipping step and it will not show up in the checkout process.
