Fungies.io

<p><strong>Fungies for WooCommerce</strong> lets you sell digital products through your WooCommerce store while <a href="https://fungies.io" rel="nofollow ugc">Fungies.io</a> handles payments, taxes, and compliance as your <strong>Merchant of Record</strong>.</p>
<p>You keep full control of your storefront. Fungies takes care of the hard parts — payment processing, tax collection, invoicing, and regulatory compliance — so you can focus on your products.</p>
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<ol>
<li><strong>Connect</strong> — Paste your Fungies API keys in WooCommerce <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Fungies</li>
<li><strong>Sync</strong> — Your Fungies products are automatically imported into WooCommerce</li>
<li><strong>Sell</strong> — Customers browse your store and check out via Fungies hosted checkout</li>
<li><strong>Get Paid</strong> — Fungies processes the payment and sends a webhook to complete the WooCommerce order</li>
<li><strong>Stay in Sync</strong> — Orders, refunds, and subscriptions are kept up to date automatically</li>
</ol>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Two-Way Product Sync</strong> — Pull OneTimePayment products from Fungies into WooCommerce AND push WooCommerce products to Fungies as OneTimePayment offers (name, description, price, featured image)</li>
<li><strong>Auto-Sync on Product Save</strong> — Editing a WooCommerce product automatically updates the matching offer in Fungies</li>
<li><strong>Currency Validation</strong> — Detects your Fungies workspace currency and warns if it differs from your WooCommerce store currency</li>
<li><strong>Multi-Item Hosted Checkout</strong> — Carts with multiple products create a Fungies Checkout Element so all line items appear on the hosted checkout page</li>
<li><strong>Detailed Sync Panel</strong> — Clear summary under “Sync Now” showing pull/push counts and per-product errors</li>
<li><strong>Duplicate Protection</strong> — Products pushed from WooCommerce to Fungies will not be re-imported as duplicates on the next pull</li>
<li><strong>Hosted Checkout</strong> — Customers are redirected to a secure Fungies checkout page to complete payment, then returned to your WooCommerce thank-you page</li>
<li><strong>Real-Time Order Sync</strong> — Webhooks keep WooCommerce orders in sync with Fungies payments, including completions, failures, and refunds</li>
<li><strong>Subscription Support</strong> — Handles subscription creation, renewal, and cancellation events from Fungies</li>
<li><strong>Sandbox / Staging Mode</strong> — Test the full flow with staging API keys and Stripe test cards before going live</li>
<li><strong>Secure Webhooks</strong> — All incoming webhooks are verified with HMAC-SHA256 signatures and protected against duplicate processing</li>
<li><strong>WooCommerce Blocks Compatible</strong> — Works with both the classic checkout and the new WooCommerce block-based checkout</li>
<li><strong>HPOS Compatible</strong> — Fully compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (custom order tables)</li>
<li><strong>Opt-In Debug Logging</strong> — Toggle verbose request/response logging in WooCommerce <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Status <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Logs (source: <code>fungies</code>). Errors and warnings are always logged; verbose dumps are off by default to keep log files small and avoid storing third-party API payloads unless you’re troubleshooting.</li>
<li><strong>Dashboard Widget</strong> — See your sync status at a glance from the WordPress dashboard</li>
</ul>
<h4>Why Fungies?</h4>
<p>Fungies acts as your Merchant of Record, which means:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>No payment gateway setup</strong> — Fungies handles Stripe, PayPal, and more</li>
<li><strong>Automatic tax collection</strong> — Sales tax, VAT, and GST handled globally</li>
<li><strong>Invoicing & compliance</strong> — Professional invoices generated for every transaction</li>
<li><strong>Fraud protection</strong> — Built-in fraud detection and chargeback handling</li>
</ul>
<h4>Use Cases</h4>
<ul>
<li>Sell software, ebooks, courses, or any digital product</li>
<li>Add a WooCommerce storefront to your existing Fungies catalog</li>
<li>Let Fungies handle payments and taxes while you manage the shopping experience</li>
</ul>
<h4>Third-Party Service: Fungies.io</h4>
<p>This plugin connects your WooCommerce store to the <strong>Fungies.io</strong> platform, an external third-party service operated by Fungies Inc.</p>
<p><strong>What data is sent to Fungies:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>During <strong>product sync</strong>, the plugin sends your API keys to the Fungies API to retrieve your product catalog.</li>
<li>During <strong>checkout</strong>, customers are redirected to the Fungies hosted checkout page. Their email address and country code are passed as URL parameters.</li>
<li>During <strong>webhook processing</strong>, Fungies sends order and payment data (order ID, payment status, amounts, subscription details) to your WordPress site.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Service endpoints used:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Production API: <code>https://api.fungies.io/v0</code></li>
<li>Staging API: <code>https://api.stage.fungies.net/v0</code></li>
<li>Hosted checkout: <code>https://{your-store}.app.fungies.io</code></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>A Fungies account is required</strong> to use this plugin. You can sign up at <a href="https://fungies.io" rel="nofollow ugc">fungies.io</a>.</p>

</ul>
<h3>Product Sync</h3>
<p>Every sync runs two phases on the same triggers:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Pull (Fungies to WooCommerce)</strong> — <code>GET /v0/offers/list</code>, then for each offer create or update a matching WooCommerce product (name, description, image, price, currency).</li>
<li><strong>Push (WooCommerce to Fungies)</strong> — for each published WooCommerce product, build a OneTimePayment product and offer body, then either <code>PATCH</code> an existing one or <code>POST</code> a new one.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Triggers</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Sync Now button</strong> in WooCommerce <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Fungies</li>
<li><strong>WP-Cron</strong>, hourly</li>
<li><strong><code>woocommerce_update_product</code> / <code>woocommerce_new_product</code></strong> hooks (push only, debounced 5 seconds)</li>
</ul>
<h4>Loop and duplicate prevention</h4>
<ul>
<li><code>_fungies_offer_id</code> on a WooCommerce product marks it as Fungies-originated <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> skipped during push.</li>
<li><code>_fungies_pushed_offer_id</code> on a WooCommerce product marks it as already-pushed <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> skipped during pull.</li>
<li>A runtime <code>is_pulling</code> flag prevents WooCommerce update hooks from firing while the pull writes to the database.</li>
<li>A 5-second per-product transient lock debounces rapid-fire saves.</li>
<li>If a <code>PATCH</code> returns 404 “Product not found” (e.g. after switching from staging to production keys), stale IDs are cleared and the product is recreated in the current workspace.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Currency handling</h4>
<p>The plugin auto-detects the Fungies workspace currency. If your WooCommerce currency does not match, the push phase errors out with a clear message — products are never pushed at the wrong currency.</p>
<h4>Meta keys reference</h4>
<ul>
<li><code>_fungies_offer_id</code> — Fungies offer ID this WooCommerce product mirrors (set on pull).</li>
<li><code>_fungies_currency</code> — currency the offer was priced in (set on pull).</li>
<li><code>_fungies_checkout_url</code> — pre-built single-offer hosted checkout URL (set on pull).</li>
<li><code>_fungies_pushed_product_id</code> — Fungies product ID for a WC-originated product (set on push).</li>
<li><code>_fungies_pushed_offer_id</code> — Fungies offer ID for a WC-originated product (set on push).</li>
<li><code>_fungies_pushed_at</code> — timestamp of last successful push.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Checkout URL Generation</h3>
<p>When a customer clicks <strong>Place Order</strong>, the plugin produces a different Fungies hosted checkout URL depending on how many distinct offers are in the cart.</p>
<h4>Step 1 — Collect offer IDs</h4>
<p>For each cart line item, the builder resolves a Fungies offer ID by checking, in order:</p>
<ol>
<li><code>_fungies_offer_id</code> (product was pulled <strong>from</strong> Fungies).</li>
<li><code>_fungies_pushed_offer_id</code> (product was pushed <strong>to</strong> Fungies from WooCommerce).</li>
</ol>
<p>Each unit (quantity) becomes one entry in the resulting offer-IDs array. Items without either meta key are logged and skipped.</p>
<h4>Step 2 — Build the URL</h4>
<p><strong>Single offer</strong> (1 distinct offer ID, quantity 1) — no API call is needed. The plugin redirects directly to:</p>
<pre><code><store_url>/checkout/<offer_id>?fngs-customer-email=...&fngs-customer-country=...
</code></pre>
<p><strong>Multiple offers</strong> (2 or more, or quantity > 1) — the plugin calls <code>POST /v0/elements/checkout/create</code> with all collected offer IDs, then redirects to:</p>
<pre><code><store_url>/checkout-element/<element_id>?fngs-customer-email=...&fngs-customer-country=...
</code></pre>
<p>The element ID is also stored on the WooCommerce order as <code>_fungies_checkout_element_id</code> for traceability. When the customer lands on the hosted checkout, Fungies promotes the element into a checkout session and the URL becomes <code>…/checkout-element/<element_id>/checkout/<session_id></code> — every cart product is visible in the order summary.</p>
<h4>Why two URL shapes?</h4>
<p>The single-offer URL is stateless — no API call, no rate-limit cost, no extra latency. The multi-offer flow has to use the Checkout Element endpoint because Fungies’ single-offer URL only carries one offer ID. Before v2.1.6, multi-item carts would silently lose every line item except the first.</p>

Lemon Squeezy

<h3>Sell digital products on WordPress</h3>
<p>If you want to sell digital products on WordPress today, it’s going to take a lot of tools, time, and effort to get something off the ground. Even if you have a simple product, it will often require bloated plugins to launch a store and start making sales.</p>

Lemon Squeezy is focused on helping creators sell their digital products — everything from digital downloads (eBooks, PDFs, design assets, photos, audio, and videos), subscriptions, and software licenses — without the hassle. The ability to manage your products, customers, taxes and VAT, discounts, email lists, and more is all perfectly packaged into every Lemon Squeezy store.</p>
<p>Our all-in-one, no-code platform is everything you need to start making money with your digital products. It’s blazing fast, super secure, and beautifully-designed with <strong>you</strong> in mind.</p>
<p><span class="embed-youtube" style="text-align:center; display: block;"><iframe loading="lazy" class="youtube-player" width="750" height="422" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wcFSb5EMiI0?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en-US&autohide=2&wmode=transparent" allowfullscreen="true" style="border:0;" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox"></iframe></span></p>
<h3>Relax, we got you covered</h3>

<h3>Why use Lemon Squeezy over WooCommerce or Easy Digital Downloads?</h3>
<p>Glad you asked! Although these are powerful plugins, they both can be cumbersome to use, leaving WordPress creators to manage plugin updates, security, payments, taxes, customer accounts, extensions, and GDPR laws. On top of that, it can be difficult to manage customers, products, and orders via the often-crowded WordPress admin.</p>
<p>We created Lemon Squeezy specifically so you don’t have to think about <em>any</em> of those headaches. Using the Lemon Squeezy app, you can launch your store, create & market products, manage customers & subscribers, and more – all within a beautifully-designed interface tailor made for digital products.</p>

<p>Having the ability to release updates to your WordPress digital products is essential. This gives your customers the ability to get the latest features and bug fixes.
