FAQ

-
What are the options for selling product samples?
WooCommerce Product Sample is incredibly flexible and gives you full control over how sample products are sold in your store.
- Offer free product samples or charge for each sample (with options to set the price globally or per category/product/variation)
- Enable samples globally or per category/product/variation
- Change the ‘Order Sample’ button text
- Choose whether to display the ‘Order Sample’ button on shop and category pages, as well as on the single product page
- Make sure you don’t lose money on product samples by setting a maximum sample quantity per order. You can choose whether this applies to the entire order, or set a different maximum sample limit per product variation
- Choose a tax and shipping class for your WooCommerce product samples (either globally or per category/product/variation)
- Manage product sample stock separately from the full product
-
Which product types can I create samples for?
WooCommerce Product Sample works for all product types. For example, you can offer samples for:
- Simple products
- Variable products – with controls to set a different price and other options for each individual variations
- Virtual and downloadable products – for example, if you want to offer a shorter music or video sample to convince customers to buy the full-length version
-
How will I know when I receive an order for a free sample product?
When a customer orders a product sample, the product is clearly labelled as a sample in the cart and checkout. By default, “- Sample” is added after the product name (e.g. “White Wall Tile – Sample“). You can change the Sample label to anything you like.
The same label will be displayed after the product name in the order notification emails to customers and the store owner, and on order-related pages in the WordPress admin. This ensures that it is always clear that the customer has ordered a sample and not the full product.
-
Can I customize or disable the email reminder to customers who have ordered a sample?
The WooCommerce Product Sample plugin comes with an email reminder which can be sent to customers shortly after their receive their sample order. The purpose of the email is to remind them to order the full version of the product, and to make this easy for them. As a result, it can significantly increase your sales from free sample customers.
You can customize the following parts of the email:
- Enable or disable the email. (Note: The email is disabled by default when you first install WooCommerce Product Sample. This is because while we have added some suitable wording to get you started, we understand that you may want to customize it to your needs.)
- The email subject, heading, and wording
- The number of days after ordering product samples that the email is sent
-
Can I force customers to order a certain number of product samples?WooCommerce Product Sample has a maximum quantity feature built-in. This lets you set the maximum number of sample products that can be purchased per order. When you set a maximum quantity, you can control the logic of how it is calculated. The options are:
- Set a maximum number of samples per order
- Set a maximum number of samples per category
- Set a maximum number of samples per product/variation
-
Can I show the sample price on shop pages?
The sample price will appear in the ‘Order sample’ button. You can change the wording using the Button Text option on the WooCommerce Product Sample plugin settings page.
If you want to show this price in your archives (shop, catalog pages), we recommend using Variations Prices for WooCommerce. This lets you modify the variation price display to include the sample price or text like: “From %min% (free samples)”
-
Will it work with my theme and other plugins?
We have tested our products with a range of free and premium themes and are confident it will look great with your theme. Our plugin support includes helping with theme-related conflicts. However, theme issues are very unlikely because we use default WooCommerce classes & styles wherever possible vs custom styling.
-
What are the purchasing options?
Clicking the Buy button above will take you to the purchase options. You can purchase an annual software license, and cancel at anytime.
Annual licenses are renewed once a year. As long as you have an active license, you will receive support, plugin updates and new features. If your license ever expires then you can continue using the plugin, but won’t receive any further updates or support.

Does the plugin work in my language?
Yes! Our plugins are designed to work with any WordPress translation plugin such as WPML, WeGlot and TranslatePress. This makes it easy for you to translate the text into any language and use it on multilingual websites.
