<p>Additional Terms for WooCommerce helps store owners add an extra agreement checkbox to the WooCommerce checkout page. Use it for return policies, refund conditions, cancellation terms, privacy notices, age confirmations, delivery notices, warranty acknowledgements, payment method notices, or any other policy that customers should review before purchase.</p>
<p>The plugin is designed to be simple to configure while still giving store owners control over how the terms appear during checkout.</p>
<h4>What you can do with the free version</h4>
<ul>
<li>Add an additional terms and conditions checkbox to WooCommerce checkout.</li>
<li>Make the checkbox required or optional.</li>
<li>Show a custom validation message when required terms are not accepted.</li>
<li>Link the checkbox label to a selected terms page using the <code>{{additional-terms}}</code> smart tag.</li>
<li>Display linked terms content in a modal, in a new tab, or directly above the checkbox.</li>
<li>Enable or disable the checkbox without deleting the saved settings.</li>
<li>Display the checkbox on the classic WooCommerce checkout shortcode.</li>
<li>Add the dedicated Additional Terms block inside the WooCommerce Checkout Block.</li>
<li>Save customer acceptance details in WooCommerce order notes.</li>
<li>Use the plugin on multilingual stores with translation-ready strings and support for WPML and Polylang workflows.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Common use cases</h4>
<p>Additional Terms for WooCommerce can be useful when your store needs customers to acknowledge specific policies before checkout, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>Refund and cancellation policies.</li>
<li>Subscription terms.</li>
<li>Product warranties.</li>
<li>Age-restricted product notices.</li>
<li>Shipping delays or delivery conditions.</li>
<li>Digital download terms.</li>
<li>Liability waivers.</li>
<li>Privacy and GDPR-related notices.</li>
<li>Return policy exceptions.</li>
<li>Special product or service conditions.</li>
<li>Payment-method-specific terms, such as bank transfer instructions, cash on delivery notices, manual payment disclaimers, financing terms, or payment gateway requirements.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Built for classic and block-based checkout</h4>
<p>The plugin works with both WooCommerce checkout approaches. On stores using the classic <code>[woocommerce_checkout]</code> shortcode, the checkbox can appear automatically near the WooCommerce terms and conditions area. On stores using the WooCommerce Checkout Block, you can place the Additional Terms block inside the checkout layout and move it to the preferred position.</p>
<h4>Keep a record of accepted terms</h4>
<p>When customers place an order, their additional terms acceptance is saved with the WooCommerce order. This gives store owners a clearer record of which checkout agreement was accepted during purchase and can help with internal review, customer support, and dispute prevention.</p>
<h4>Upgrade to Additional Terms Pro</h4>
<p>Need more advanced checkout agreements? Additional Terms Pro gives WooCommerce stores more flexibility, more control, and better record keeping for complex checkout policies.</p>
<p>With Additional Terms Pro, you can:</p>
<ul>
<li>Create unlimited additional terms checkboxes for different policies, notices, waivers, and acknowledgements.</li>
<li>Set default checkbox states for optional agreements.</li>
<li>Display accepted additional terms directly inside WooCommerce order emails.</li>
<li>Attach a PDF receipt of accepted terms to WooCommerce order emails.</li>
<li>Show an acceptance summary on the WooCommerce order details screen.</li>
<li>Use advanced conditional logic to show terms only when they are relevant.</li>
<li>Display terms based on products, categories, tags, shipping locations, user roles, shipping classes, product types, payment gateways, weekdays, and WooCommerce Brands.</li>
<li>Add payment-method-specific agreements for options such as bank transfer, cash on delivery, manual payment methods, financing, or custom gateways.</li>
<li>Link checkboxes to content from a selected post type, not only standard WordPress pages.</li>
<li>Use Hidden Cart Matching for custom checkout layouts where products may be hidden or modified by the theme or checkout builder.</li>
<li>Export and import plugin settings when moving terms configuration between stores.</li>
<li>Generate structured Terms and Conditions content using the guided Terms Generator.</li>
<li>Receive premium updates and priority support through WooCommerce.com.</li>
</ul>
<p>Additional Terms Pro is a strong fit for stores that need product-specific policies, payment gateway notices, subscription terms, regional notices, warranty acknowledgements, age confirmations, custom checkout agreements, or clearer documentation of what customers accepted during checkout.</p>

<h4>Important note</h4>
<p>This plugin helps you present and record checkout agreements, but it does not provide legal advice. Always review your terms and policies carefully, and consult a qualified legal professional when needed.</p>
