<h2>Add External Links for Product Retailers or Distributors to Your Products</h2>
<p>External / Affiliate products are a great feature of WooCommerce, but they have one major limitation: you can’t sell a product yourself <strong>and</strong> link to the same product on a retailer or distributor’s website. This extension removes that limitation, and also allows you to list <strong>multiple retailers</strong> rather than one affiliate link.</p>
<p>Easily setup retailers or distributors for products in your store, including a URL to their website, then assign them to individual products. Customers can then purchase the item directly on your store, or they can visit the retailer or distributor’s website to purchase.</p>
<p>Perfect for products sold through <strong>multiple sales channels</strong>, such as a book available directly on-site, through Amazon, for Kindle, and Nook.</p>

<h3>Easily Add Retailers / Distributors</h3>
<p>Add your retailers or distributors quickly and then assign them a default link. After they’ve been added, you can assign them to products and set a unique URL per product. This is useful to link the product directly to the related product on the retailer’s / distributor’s website.</p>
<figure id="attachment_152645" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-152645" style="width: 550px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/woocommerce-product-retailers-adding-retailers.png"><img class="size-medium wp-image-152645" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/woocommerce-product-retailers-adding-retailers.png" alt="WooCommerce Product Retailers Add Retailer" width="550" height="267" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-152645" class="wp-caption-text">Add & View Retailers / Distributors</figcaption></figure>
<p>Add retailers to specific products:</p>
<figure id="attachment_152645" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-152645" style="width: 550px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/woocommerce-product-retailers-adding-retailers.png"><img class="size-medium wp-image-152645" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/woocommerce-product-retailers-adding-retailers.png" alt="WooCommerce Product Retailers Add Retailer" width="550" height="267" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-152645" class="wp-caption-text">Add & View Retailers/Distributors</figcaption></figure>
<p>You can now also use buttons rather than a drop-down menu to display retailers to your customers by simply clicking “Use Buttons” while creating your product:</p>
<figure id="attachment_156909" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-156909" style="width: 550px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/woocommerce-product-retailers-use-buttons1.png"><img class="size-medium wp-image-156909" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/woocommerce-product-retailers-use-buttons1.png" alt="WooCommerce Product Retailers buttons" width="550" height="485" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-156909" class="wp-caption-text">Using Buttons for Retailers</figcaption></figure>
<p>You can even opt to only show retailers when your product is out of stock, letting you generate referral revenue instead of backorders!</p>
<p>This allows you to sell products directly, or generate revenue via your affiliate / referral links with other retailers (such as Amazon). Give customers purchasing options without losing out on revenue!</p>

Product Retailers

<p>Allow customers to purchase external products directly on your site, or from a selection of retailers.</p>

<h2 style="color: #f5247d"><b>Help customers find the right fit</b></h2>
<p>When browsing online, customers often face a tough choice: several products look similar, but which one is truly the best for their needs? Without a way to compare, shoppers get stuck in “analysis paralysis” and may abandon their carts entirely.</p>
<p>Products Compare for WooCommerce solves this by giving your customers a simple, structured way to weigh their options. By letting shoppers line up products side-by-side, you remove confusion and help them feel confident about hitting “Add to Cart.”</p>
<h2><b>Let customers select products to compare</b></h2>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3113961" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/screen-shot-2018-05-16-at-1-38-45-pm.png?w=620" alt="Compare products on category pages" width="620" height="382" /></p>
<p>With this extension, customers will see the option to compare products directly on category pages. Customers can select the options they’re considering to see important details side-by-side.</p>
<p>On category pages, customers can tick a box or click a button to compare items instantly. Instead of opening multiple tabs or jotting down notes, they can build their own shortlist in just a few clicks.</p>
<p>For example, a clothing store could let shoppers compare different jackets by material, size availability, and customer ratings. An electronics retailer could highlight the differences in features, specs, and prices across competing models.</p>
<h2><b>Show detailed comparison tables</b></h2>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3113963" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/screencapture-avivas-test-site-local-products-compare-2018-05-16-13_38_59.png?w=620" alt="Comparison tables from Products Compare" width="620" height="596" /></p>
<section class="product-compare-details">Once shoppers make their selection, the plugin generates a clean, easy-to-read chart. Key details like:</p>
<ul>
<li>Price</li>
<li>Ratings</li>
<li>Stock levels</li>
<li>Descriptions and attributes</li>
</ul>
<p>…are all lined up in one place. This makes it clear which product delivers the best value, quality, or availability — and gives shoppers confidence to complete their purchase.</p>
</section>
<section class="product-compare-placement">
<h2><strong>Add comparison anywhere in your store</strong></h2>
<p>The comparison tool isn’t limited to category pages. Add it to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Sidebars or widgets on product pages</li>
<li>Custom landing pages with curated product groups</li>
<li>Search results or promotional pages</li>
</ul>
<p>Even better: the customer’s comparison list follows them around your store. If they added a product on a category page, they’ll see it again later, ready to compare with anything new they discover.</p>
</section>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3113964" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/screen-shot-2018-05-16-at-1-47-07-pm.png?w=620" alt="Compare Products widget" width="620" height="375" /></p>
<p>It doesn’t stop at the category page – any page can include the option to compare products. The products a customer has already viewed will stick around, so they can easily add more options as they find them across your store.</p>
<section class="product-compare-benefits">
<h2><strong>Why use Products Compare?</strong></h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Increase conversions</strong> by giving customers the clarity they need to decide</li>
<li><strong>Reduce returns</strong> — customers make better-informed choices the first time</li>
<li><strong>Boost trust</strong> by presenting products transparently and side-by-side</li>
<li><strong>Improve experience</strong> for larger catalogs where products can blur together</li>
