<p>Product Accessories transforms your WooCommerce product pages by adding a dedicated accessories tab that showcases relevant products to your customers. Instead of hoping customers discover complementary items on their own, this plugin strategically presents the right products at the perfect moment – when they’re already committed to making a purchase.</p>

<h2>How It Works</h2>
<h3>For Store Owners</h3>
<p>Set up takes just minutes. Edit any product, click the new Accessories tab, and either manually select products or create smart rules that automatically include relevant items. The plugin handles the rest, displaying your choices in an attractive, mobile-responsive layout that encourages additional purchases.</p>
<h3>For Your Customers</h3>
<p>When browsing your products, customers see a new “Accessories” tab alongside Description and Reviews. Inside, they find organized, relevant product suggestions they can add directly to their cart without leaving the page. No more hunting through categories or wondering what else they might need.</p>
<h2>Perfect For These Scenarios</h2>
<p><strong>Electronics Stores</strong> – Show phone cases when customers view phones, or display compatible chargers and batteries with power tools.</p>
<p><strong>Beauty and Wellness</strong> – Suggest brushes with makeup, or recommend complementary skincare products that work together.</p>
<p><strong>Automotive Parts</strong> – Display installation tools, related components, or maintenance items alongside primary parts.</p>
<p><strong>Home and Garden</strong> – Present plant food with plants, or show matching furniture pieces and accessories.</p>
<p><strong>Fashion and Jewelry</strong> – Recommend matching accessories, care products, or coordinating items.</p>
<h2>Two Ways to Showcase Products</h2>
<h3>Curated Lists (Manual Selection)</h3>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-18734005779380" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/product-accessories-curated-products.png?w=896" alt="" width="896" height="506" /></p>
<p>Hand-pick exactly which products to show. Perfect when you want complete control over recommendations or when showcasing premium partnerships and featured items.</p>
<h3>Smart Rules (Automatic Selection)<br />
<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-18734005779381" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/product-accessories-automatic-rules.png?w=896" alt="" width="896" height="621" /></h3>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-18734005810335" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/product-accessories-rule-options.png?w=896" alt="" width="896" height="483" /></p>
<p>Create intelligent rules that automatically include products based on categories, tags, prices and brands. Products matching your criteria appear automatically, keeping your accessories current without ongoing maintenance.</p>
<h2>Advanced Search Makes Setup Easy</h2>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-18734005779382" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/product-accessories-product-lookup.png?w=896" alt="" width="896" height="765" /></p>
<p>Finding the right products to recommend is simple with our Advanced Lookup feature. Search by name, filter by category or browse by product type. Select multiple items at once and add them to your accessories list in seconds.</p>
<h2>Flexible Display Options</h2>
<p>Choose between vertical tabs (great for multiple accessory categories) or horizontal tabs (perfect for simpler layouts). Control how many products show per page, whether to display product counts, and where the accessories tab appears relative to other product information.</p>
<h2>Customer-Focused Design</h2>
<p>Your accessories appear in clean, organized tabs that customers can easily navigate. Each recommended product shows its image, title, current price, and stock status, with a direct “Add to Cart” button for immediate purchase. The layout automatically adapts to mobile devices, ensuring a smooth experience across all devices.</p>
<h2>No Technical Skills Required</h2>
<p>The entire setup happens through your familiar WordPress admin interface. No coding, no complex configurations, and no theme modifications needed. If you can edit a WooCommerce product, you can set up professional product recommendations.</p>
<h2>Built for Performance</h2>
<p>Product Accessories uses optimized database queries and follows WooCommerce best practices to ensure your site remains fast. Smart caching integration means your accessories load quickly without impacting your site’s performance.</p>
<h2>Why This Matters for Your Business</h2>
<p>Every product page is an opportunity to increase sales, but most stores miss this chance. Product Accessories ensures you never leave money on the table by making it effortless for customers to find and purchase everything they need in one visit. When customers can easily discover complementary products, they spend more, return more often, and have a better overall shopping experience.</p>
<p>The plugin pays for itself by converting visitors into higher-value customers, reducing the cost per acquisition while increasing customer lifetime value.</p>

Product Accessories

<p>Display curated or rule-based accessories/complementary products in product tabs on your store.</p>

<h2><strong>Offer Shoppers Alternative Products</strong></h2>
<p>When a product is out of stock or no longer available, clients may leave your store without making a purchase. The <strong>Alternate Product Recommendations for WooCommerce</strong> plugin offers a solution. When products are not available, the plugin offers your customers alternate products to consider. When products are in stock, the plugin offers customers additional products to purchase.</p>
<h2><strong>Benefits</strong></h2>
<p><strong>Customer satisfaction</strong></p>
<p>Offering an alternative product lets your customers know that you care about their shopping experience.</p>
<p><strong>Keep customers shopping and buying</strong></p>
<p>A customer offered an alternative may be interested in that product and may buy it. Hopefully, they will continue to shop on your site instead of leaving in frustration when an item is out of stock.</p>
<p><strong>Reduce cart abandonment</strong></p>
<p>If a customer already has items in their cart and discovers that something they intended to buy is out of stock, they might leave your site. Offering an alternative to keep them on your site will hopefully also lead to them buying the items in their carts and/or the recommended alternate item.</p>
<h2><strong>Features</strong></h2>
<p>1.<strong> Alternate Product Recommendation Types</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>No Longer Available</strong> – If you choose this option, then you can display only the message saying the product is no longer available/recommend single/multiple alternate products.</li>
<li><strong>Recommend Alternate Product</strong> – If you choose this option, then you can recommend single/multiple alternate products.</li>
</ul>
<p>2. Alternate products can be shown in two different designs.</p>
<p>3. Recommended Products can shown in either Carousel/Slider type.</p>
<p>4. Option to display the SKU on Recommended Products.</p>
<p>5. SKU can be displayed Before/After the Product Price.</p>
<p>6. Site admin can track the products viewed & purchases made by this plugin.</p>
<p>7. You can set the threshold to update the visit count if the user views the same product multiple times.</p>
<h2><strong>How does it work?</strong></h2>
<h3><strong>Product no longer available</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li>A user will normally see a notice saying an item is <strong>“No longer available for purchase”</strong> when they visit the product page of an out-of-stock item.</li>
<li>With the <strong>Alternate Product Recommendations for WooCommerce </strong>plugin, users will see the same notification with an alternate single item, or multiple items, to consider in its place.</li>
</ul>
