Most WooCommerce stores lose sales to friction, not price. These five plugins each fix a different leak: product bundles increase order value, wishlists capture later intent, store credit smooths refunds, role-based pricing serves wholesale tiers, and size charts reduce fit uncertainty. Start with the one that matches the step where your analytics shows the biggest drop-off.
Key takeaways
- Don’t install all five plugins at once. Identify the step in your funnel with the biggest drop-off first.
- WPC Product Bundles is the strongest default for most stores because it raises order value without requiring return visits.
- WPC Smart Wishlist recovers shoppers who need to leave and come back, especially on mobile or multi-session purchases.
- Store credit and role-based pricing are niche conversion levers; they work when returns, loyalty or wholesale pricing are already part of your model.
- Size charts reduce returns as much as they increase conversion for apparel, footwear and fit-sensitive products.
How I Judged These WooCommerce Conversion Plugins
I judged each plugin the way a store owner would: install on a staging clone, configure from the admin, and run a test order. The pass/fail came down to four criteria, not the size of the feature list.
- Setup time: I timed from upload to a working test. A plugin that needed theme hooks or code failed.
- Cart/product flow compatibility: I tested against default WooCommerce cart, product page, and checkout with simple and variable products, AJAX add-to-cart, and coupons.
- Measurable effect: I looked for a direct lever—either reducing drop-off (wishlist saves, size charts, store credit) or increasing average order value (bundles, role-based pricing).
- Maintenance burden: I checked update history, file footprint, and whether a non-technical owner could keep settings straight after I handed it over.
WPC Product Bundles for WooCommerce
WPC Product Bundles is the first plugin to try when average order value or cross-sell is weak. The plugin turns selected products into a single catalog offer, so buyers add one item instead of three separate ones.
A skincare shop can group a cleanser, serum, and moisturizer into one set. A tool supplier can pair a drill with batteries and a charger. The bundle appears as one product page and one add-to-cart action.
- Refill sets and multi-step routines for supplements and skincare
- Starter kits and accessory combos for electronics and tools
- Mixed cases and recurring packs for food and drink
Best for stores where customers already buy complementary items but product pages do not group them into a single purchase.

WPC Smart Wishlist for WooCommerce (Premium)
Use WPC Smart Wishlist when your analytics shows mobile sessions that add items but never complete checkout, or when shoppers treat your catalog as a research list before a separate purchase. The plugin lets customers save products for later from the product page, so intent stays attached to their account or session instead of disappearing with the tab.
Shoppers can save multiple items into a wishlist and return to them without re-finding each product. That helps stores with multi-session purchases or catalogs where buyers compare options before committing.
WPC Smart Wishlist for WooCommerce (Premium)
Adds a save-for-later path so shoppers can return to items instead of losing the session.
Logged-in users get a more consistent wishlist across devices. Guest sessions depend on the store's cookie and account setup, so test the mobile-to-desktop flow before relying on it.
WooCommerce Store Credit
Use WooCommerce Store Credit when refunds or returns are routine and you want to keep that money in your store. The plugin tracks balances and lets customers apply credit to future orders instead of sending funds back to a card.
- Create the credit Add a credit balance to the customer's account after a refund or promotion. You control the amount and reuse rules.
- Customer views the balance The balance appears in the account area so the shopper sees it without a code.
- Apply at checkout The customer chooses how much credit to apply. The rest stays on the account.
Apparel, jewelry, and subscription stores get the most from this because exchanges and partial refunds are routine there. A size return becomes credit for the right size; a damaged item becomes credit for a replacement. You keep the next sale without losing the returned amount.
WooCommerce Store Credit
Turns refunds into retained revenue by letting customers apply store credit at checkout. Best for stores where returns, exchanges, or subscription pauses create balance questions.
Role Based Pricing for WooCommerce
Role Based Pricing for WooCommerce is for wholesale, trade, member, or loyalty pricing, not a general consumer store. If you sell the same price to every visitor, this plugin adds complexity without a conversion payoff.
Set different prices by user role from the WooCommerce admin. Logged-in customers then see their role price in the cart and checkout, so retail pricing never confuses a quote.
Role Based Pricing for WooCommerce
Applies role-specific prices to your catalog so logged-in wholesale or member customers see their own rates.
WPC Product Size Chart for WooCommerce
Use WPC Product Size Chart when fit anxiety stops the buy on apparel, footwear, rings, or any item where a wrong size means a return. The plugin adds size information to product pages so shoppers can check measurements before adding to cart.
WPC Product Size Chart for WooCommerce
Adds size information to product pages so shoppers confirm measurements before adding to cart.
Place the chart where shoppers look while choosing a variant, such as near the size selector or in a product tab. The goal is to answer the fit question before the shopper leaves the page to check another site.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best WooCommerce plugin to increase average order value?
Start with WPC Product Bundles for WooCommerce. It turns selected products into a single add-to-cart unit, which raises the value of each completed order. If your store already has repeat traffic but low close rate, WPC Smart Wishlist is a secondary option.
How do product bundles reduce cart abandonment in WooCommerce?
Bundles reduce the number of decisions a shopper has to make before checkout. Instead of adding three separate items, the buyer adds one grouped offer with a single add-to-cart button. This works best for refill sets, starter kits, and stores where customers already buy complementary products.
Can WooCommerce store credit be used for refunds?
Yes. WooCommerce Store Credit keeps refund value on the customer account as a balance instead of sending it back to the payment method. The customer can apply that balance to a later order. This is most useful for stores that handle frequent returns or exchanges.
Which WooCommerce plugin is best for wholesale or B2B pricing?
Role Based Pricing for WooCommerce is the focused pick for wholesale, trade, and member pricing. You set different prices per user role, and logged-in customers see their own rate in cart and checkout.
Do size charts actually reduce clothing returns in WooCommerce?
They reduce the fit uncertainty that causes many return requests. WPC Product Size Chart adds size information to the product page so shoppers can check measurements before ordering. The data has to match your actual product variants; generic charts often increase returns.
Are these WooCommerce conversion plugins difficult to set up?
Most of these five install like standard WooCommerce plugins and need configuration, not custom code. Testing on a staging site with a simple and variable product is enough to catch common setup mistakes. Role Based Pricing for WooCommerce needs more role testing before launch.
