How to Connect WooCommerce with Konvo

Sync your WooCommerce store with Konvo and unlock AI-powered eCommerce automation.

The WooCommerce integration connects your online store directly to Konvo, giving you access to powerful features that go beyond basic messaging. Once connected, Konvo can track revenue and conversions from your campaigns, trigger automated post-purchase flows, and use your customers' order data to personalise their experience — all from a single platform.


What the WooCommerce Integration Unlocks

Connecting WooCommerce to Konvo enables the following capabilities:

  • Revenue and conversion attribution — see exactly how much revenue your broadcasts and automated flows are generating, tracked directly against your WooCommerce orders

  • Post-purchase automation — trigger automated WhatsApp flows when an order is paid or when it ships, keeping customers informed at every step

  • Widget integration — connect your Konvo chat widget seamlessly to your WooCommerce store so customer data flows between both platforms

  • Customer segmentation — use order history, purchase frequency, and product data to segment your customers and send more targeted, relevant communications


What You'll Need

  • Admin access to your Konvo account

  • Admin access to your WooCommerce store (WordPress admin panel)

  • Your WooCommerce store URL


Part 1 — Set Up WooCommerce Before Connecting

There are two things you need to do inside your WooCommerce store before connecting to Konvo. These are quick but important — skipping them can cause the integration to fail.

Step 1: Check your Permalinks structure

Konvo requires your WooCommerce store's Permalink structure to be set to Post name. If it's set to anything else, the API connection will not work correctly.

To check and update this:

  1. In your WordPress admin panel, go to SettingsPermalinks

  2. Under "Common Settings", select Post name

  3. Click Save Changes

💡 Tip: If you're not sure what your current permalink structure is, it's always safe to switch it to Post name — this is the recommended setting for most WooCommerce stores and won't affect your existing content.

Step 2: Download and install the Konvo plugin

The WooCommerce integration works through a plugin that you install manually in WordPress. Here's how:

Download the plugin:
First, download the Konvo plugin file from the following link:

Install the plugin in WordPress:

  1. In your WordPress admin panel, go to PluginsAdd New Plugin

  2. Click Upload Plugin at the top of the page

  3. Click Choose File and select the .zip file you just downloaded

  4. Click Install Now

  5. Once installed, click Activate Plugin

Once activated, the Konvo plugin is ready inside WooCommerce. Now it's time to complete the connection from the Konvo side.


Part 2 — Connect WooCommerce in Konvo

Step 3: Open the Integrations section

In Konvo, go to Settings (left-hand sidebar) → Integrations. You'll see a grid of all available integrations.

Step 4: Find WooCommerce and click Connect

Locate the WooCommerce card and click Connect. A dropdown will appear asking for your store details.

Step 5: Enter your store URL and connect

In the dropdown that appears, enter your WooCommerce store URL — this is the full URL of your WordPress site (for example, https://yourstore.com). Then click Connect.

This will redirect you to your WooCommerce store to complete the authorisation.

Step 6: Approve the connection in WooCommerce

Your WooCommerce store will open and display an authorisation screen asking you to approve the Konvo app. Click Approve to grant Konvo access to your store data.

Once approved, you will be redirected back to Konvo automatically.

Step 7: Confirm the connection in Konvo

What Gets Synced

Once connected, the following data flows from WooCommerce into Konvo:

  • Customer profiles — names, email addresses, and phone numbers linked to your WooCommerce customers

  • Order history — all past and current orders associated with each customer

  • Order status — paid, shipped, completed, cancelled, and other statuses

  • Purchase data — products purchased, order values, and purchase frequency

This data is accessible directly from within any conversation in Konvo. Open a contact profile and you'll see their full WooCommerce order history — no need to switch between platforms.


What Your AI Can Do with WooCommerce

Once WooCommerce is connected and your AI Processes are configured, your AI can handle common eCommerce requests automatically:

  • Checking order status — the AI retrieves live order data and responds instantly

  • Cancelling an order — the AI processes cancellation requests without human intervention

  • Updating a shipping address — the AI modifies delivery details on existing orders

  • Processing refunds — the AI initiates refunds based on your configured policies

  • Creating new orders — the AI can place orders on behalf of customers when needed

For full setup instructions on each of these actions, refer to the AI Processes guides.


Post-Purchase Flows and Automations

The WooCommerce integration enables event-triggered automation flows through Konvo. You can set up automated WhatsApp messages that fire based on specific WooCommerce events:

  • Order Paid — send an instant order confirmation to the customer on WhatsApp as soon as payment is received

  • Order Shipped — notify the customer automatically when their order has been dispatched, including tracking details if available

These flows work in the same way as Shopify post-purchase flows and can be fully customised based on your business needs and customer journey.


Managing Your Integration

Once WooCommerce is connected, go to Settings → Integrations and click Settings on the WooCommerce card. From there you can:

  • Configure — adjust the integration settings

  • Refresh Permissions — re-authorise the connection if it stops syncing correctly

  • Disconnect — remove the integration entirely. Your Konvo data will not be deleted, but order data will stop syncing and the AI will no longer have access to live WooCommerce information

💡 Tip: If your WooCommerce data stops syncing after connection, try Refresh Permissions before disconnecting — this resolves most sync issues without needing to go through the full setup again.


✅ Done! Your WooCommerce store is now connected to Konvo and syncing your customer and order data in real time.
