Running a WooCommerce store in 2026 means competing with thousands of online shops vying for the same customers. The difference between a store that stagnates and one that grows consistently? The right extensions.
WooCommerce’s core is intentionally lean. It handles products, carts, and checkout. But the real sales power comes from extensions that add upselling, bundling, loyalty programs, social proof, and recurring revenue capabilities to your store.
After testing dozens of extensions across real client stores, we’ve narrowed down the best WooCommerce extensions for boosting sales in 2026 — organized by the specific sales problem each one solves.

1. Product Bundles — Increase Average Order Value Instantly
Product bundling is one of the simplest, most effective ways to increase average order value (AOV). Instead of selling items individually, you offer them together at a slight discount — customers feel they’re getting a deal, and you move more inventory per transaction.
WooCommerce Product Bundles (by WooCommerce)
The official WooCommerce Product Bundles extension is the gold standard for product bundling. It lets you create assembled products from individual items in your catalog, with full control over pricing, shipping, and stock management.
Key features:
- Create fixed bundles or let customers mix-and-match items
- Per-item pricing or flat bundle pricing
- Smart shipping — ship bundled items together or individually
- Bulk discounts for quantity-based purchasing
- Subscription bundles (when paired with WooCommerce Subscriptions)
Why it boosts sales: Stores using product bundles consistently report a 15-30% increase in AOV. The psychological trigger is simple: customers perceive bundled pricing as a deal, even when the discount is modest. When a customer adds a $49 bundle instead of a $29 single item, that’s an immediate 69% increase in that transaction’s value.
Pricing: $79/year for a single site. Higher tiers available for 5 and 25 sites.
YITH WooCommerce Product Bundles
A solid alternative from YITH with a free version available. The premium version adds advanced pricing rules, per-item discounts, and the ability to set minimum/maximum quantities per bundle item.
Best for: Store owners who want to test bundling with a free version before committing, or those who need more granular per-item pricing control within bundles.
Pricing: Free version available. Premium starts at $69.99/year.
2. Upsells and Sales Funnels — Convert More at Checkout
Getting a customer to checkout is the hardest part. Once they’re there, the right upsell or cross-sell offer can add 10-25% to your revenue without acquiring a single new customer.
CartFlows
CartFlows has become the go-to sales funnel builder for WooCommerce. It replaces the default checkout with optimized, conversion-focused funnels that include order bumps, one-click upsells, and downsells.
Key features:
- Drag-and-drop funnel builder (works with Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder)
- One-click post-purchase upsells (no re-entering payment info)
- Order bumps on the checkout page
- A/B testing for checkout pages and upsell offers
- Dynamic offers based on cart contents
- Checkout field optimization to reduce abandonment
Why it boosts sales: CartFlows users report average conversion rate increases of 20-30% on checkout pages alone. The one-click upsell feature is especially powerful — after a customer completes a purchase, they see a targeted offer they can accept with a single click. No friction, no re-entering card details. It’s the same strategy Amazon uses, and it works because the customer is already in buying mode.
Real-world example: An online supplement store added a one-click upsell offering a discounted protein shaker with every protein powder purchase. Result: 34% of customers accepted the upsell, adding $12.99 to each order.
Pricing: Free version available with basic features. Pro starts at $79/year.
UpsellWP
A newer, lightweight alternative focused specifically on upsells and cross-sells. UpsellWP keeps things simple with rule-based upsell triggers and clean offer displays.
Key features:
- Frequently bought together recommendations
- Cart upsells triggered by cart value or specific products
- Post-purchase one-click upsells
- Customizable offer templates
Best for: Stores that want straightforward upselling without building full sales funnels. Lighter footprint than CartFlows if you don’t need the funnel builder.
Pricing: Free version available. Pro starts at $69/year.
3. Wishlists — Capture Intent and Drive Return Visits
Wishlists do something no other extension category does: they capture purchase intent even when the customer isn’t ready to buy. A customer adding an item to a wishlist is telling you exactly what they want. That data is gold for remarketing.
YITH WooCommerce Wishlist
The most popular WooCommerce wishlist plugin, with over 900,000 active installations for the free version. The premium version turns wishlists into a full remarketing engine.
Key features:
- Customizable “Add to Wishlist” buttons on product and shop pages
- Guest wishlists (no login required)
- Shareable wishlists via social media and email
- Automatic email notifications when wishlist items go on sale
- Admin dashboard showing most-wished-for products
- “Ask for an estimate” feature for wishlists
Why it boosts sales: According to Metrilo’s ecommerce research, wishlists increase conversion rates by up to 26.5% when paired with price-drop notifications. The logic is straightforward: if someone adds an item to a wishlist, they want it. A sale notification gives them the push to convert. Beyond individual conversions, shareable wishlists effectively turn every customer into a referral channel — birthday and holiday wishlists shared with friends and family bring entirely new visitors to your store.
Pricing: Free version available. Premium starts at $94.99/year.
TI WooCommerce Wishlist
A budget-friendly alternative with a strong free version. Integrates well with most themes and offers clean, customizable wishlist pages.
Best for: Stores on a tighter budget that want essential wishlist functionality without the advanced remarketing features of YITH.
Pricing: Free version available. Premium starts at $49/year.
4. Points and Rewards — Build Loyalty That Pays
Acquiring a new customer costs 5-7x more than retaining an existing one. Points and rewards programs give customers a tangible reason to come back, turning one-time buyers into repeat customers.
YITH WooCommerce Points and Rewards
A comprehensive loyalty program extension that lets you award points for purchases, reviews, referrals, and account actions. Customers redeem points for discounts on future orders.
Key features:
- Customizable points-per-dollar earning rates
- Points for purchases, reviews, account creation, referrals, and birthdays
- Tiered reward levels (Bronze, Silver, Gold)
- Point expiration to create urgency
- Admin controls to manually adjust point balances
- Integration with YITH’s other extensions for a unified experience
Why it boosts sales: Research from Bond Brand Loyalty shows that 79% of consumers say loyalty programs make them more likely to continue doing business with a brand. Points programs work on two psychological levels: the endowed progress effect (customers feel they’re making progress toward a reward and don’t want to “lose” accumulated points) and loss aversion (point expiration creates urgency to return and spend). Stores with well-implemented points programs see 20-30% higher customer lifetime value compared to stores without them.
Pricing: $159.99/year.
WooCommerce Points and Rewards (by WooCommerce)
The official WooCommerce extension for points and rewards. Simpler than YITH’s offering but integrates seamlessly with WooCommerce core.
Key features:
- Award points for purchases and writing reviews
- Customizable points-to-discount conversion
- Maximum discount limits per order
- Bulk award or deduct points for all customers
Best for: Stores that want a straightforward points program without complex tiered rewards or gamification elements.
Pricing: $129/year for a single site.
5. Subscriptions — Build Predictable Recurring Revenue
One-time sales are great. Recurring revenue is better. Subscriptions transform your WooCommerce store from a transactional business into one with predictable, compounding monthly revenue.
WooCommerce Subscriptions
The industry-standard subscription extension, built and maintained by the WooCommerce team. It handles everything from simple recurring product deliveries to complex SaaS-style billing with trial periods and variable pricing.
Key features:
- Simple and variable subscription products
- Free trial periods and sign-up fees
- Subscriber account management (upgrade, downgrade, pause, cancel)
- Automatic payment retries for failed renewals
- Proration for mid-cycle plan changes
- Synchronized renewal dates for cohort billing
- Integration with 25+ payment gateways for automatic renewals
Why it boosts sales: Subscription-based businesses grow revenue 5-8x faster than traditional businesses, according to Zuora’s Subscription Economy Index. The math is compelling: if you have 200 subscribers paying $29/month, that’s $5,800 in monthly recurring revenue (MRR) you can count on before you make a single new sale. It changes your entire business model from constantly chasing new customers to building a growing base of predictable income. Even physical product stores can benefit — subscription boxes, replenishment subscriptions (think coffee, supplements, pet food), and membership-based access to exclusive products all work well.
Real-world example: A specialty tea shop launched a monthly tea subscription box at $34.99/month. Within six months, subscriptions accounted for 43% of total revenue and reduced their customer acquisition spending by 35% since subscribers required no re-acquisition.
Pricing: $239/year for a single site. This is the most expensive extension on our list, but for businesses where subscriptions make sense, the ROI is substantial.
SUMO Subscriptions
A budget alternative available on CodeCanyon with a one-time lifetime purchase. Covers the core subscription features most stores need.
Key features:
- Simple and variable subscriptions
- Trial periods and sign-up fees
- Synchronized renewals
- Subscription pause and cancellation
Best for: Stores looking for a one-time purchase option instead of yearly licensing. Feature set is more limited than WooCommerce Subscriptions but covers the essentials.
Pricing: $49 one-time (lifetime license via CodeCanyon).
6. Reviews and Social Proof — Let Your Customers Sell for You
Social proof is the most powerful conversion tool in ecommerce. 93% of consumers say online reviews influence their purchasing decisions (Podium). Products with reviews convert at 270% higher rates than products without them (Spiegel Research Center).
ReviewX
ReviewX upgrades WooCommerce’s basic review system into a full-featured, conversion-optimized review engine with multi-criteria ratings, photo/video reviews, and review reminders.
Key features:
- Multi-criteria review ratings (rate products on multiple attributes)
- Photo and video reviews from customers
- Google rich snippet integration for star ratings in search results
- Automated review reminder emails after purchase
- Review filtering and sorting for shoppers
- Store owner responses to reviews
Why it boosts sales: Multi-criteria reviews provide more detailed social proof than simple star ratings. When a customer can see that a laptop bag scores 4.8/5 on durability but 3.9/5 on style, they get genuinely useful information — which builds trust and reduces returns. Photo and video reviews are especially powerful: according to PowerReviews, reviews with photos increase conversion by 67% compared to text-only reviews. Google rich snippets put star ratings directly in search results, increasing click-through rates by up to 35%.
Pricing: Free version available. Pro starts at $59/year.
YITH WooCommerce Advanced Reviews
YITH’s review extension focuses on collecting more reviews through automated reminders and incentivizing reviews with discount coupons.
Best for: Stores that prioritize review collection volume and want to automate the entire review-gathering process.
Pricing: $79.99/year.
How to Choose the Right Extensions for Your Store
You don’t need all 12 extensions. Here’s a decision framework based on where your store is today:
If You’re Just Starting Out (Under $5K/Month Revenue)
Start with two extensions that give you the most immediate impact:
- CartFlows Free — Optimize your checkout and add basic order bumps
- YITH WooCommerce Wishlist Free — Capture purchase intent at zero cost
These two free tools improve both conversion rate and repeat visit rate without any investment.
If You’re Growing ($5K-$25K/Month Revenue)
Add extensions that increase order value and build loyalty:
- WooCommerce Product Bundles — Lift your AOV by 15-30%
- CartFlows Pro — Unlock one-click upsells and A/B testing
- ReviewX — Build social proof that compounds over time
If You’re Scaling ($25K+/Month Revenue)
Layer in recurring revenue and loyalty programs:
- WooCommerce Subscriptions — Build predictable monthly revenue
- YITH Points and Rewards — Maximize customer lifetime value
- YITH Wishlist Premium — Turn wishlists into a remarketing engine
Maximizing Extension ROI: Implementation Tips
Installing extensions is the easy part. Getting real results requires strategic implementation.
Bundle Strategy
Don’t just bundle random products. Analyze your order history to find products that are already frequently purchased together, then bundle them with a 10-15% discount. This works because you’re reinforcing existing buying behavior rather than trying to create new behavior.
Upsell Timing
Test upsells at three points: product page (“Frequently bought together”), cart page (“Add this for $X more”), and post-purchase (one-click upsell). Most stores find post-purchase upsells convert highest because the buying decision is already made.
Review Generation
Send review request emails 7-14 days after delivery — enough time for the customer to use the product, but soon enough that the experience is fresh. Offer a small incentive (loyalty points or a 5% coupon) for photo reviews specifically.
Points Program Design
Set your points-to-dollar ratio so customers earn a meaningful reward within 2-3 purchases. If the first reward is 10 purchases away, most customers will disengage before they get there. Point expiration of 6-12 months creates urgency without feeling punitive.

Final Thoughts
The best WooCommerce extensions for boosting sales in 2026 share a common thread: they work with human psychology rather than against it. Bundles tap into deal-seeking behavior. Upsells capitalize on buying momentum. Wishlists capture intent for later conversion. Points programs create loyalty loops. Subscriptions build predictable revenue. Reviews provide the social proof that removes purchase hesitation.
Start with the extensions that address your store’s biggest bottleneck. If your AOV is low, start with bundles and upsells. If customer retention is the issue, invest in points and subscriptions. If you’re not collecting reviews, that’s free money you’re leaving on the table.
The stores that grow fastest in 2026 won’t be the ones with the biggest ad budgets — they’ll be the ones that extract the most value from every visitor and every customer relationship. These extensions are how you do exactly that.
