<h2>Add External Links for Product Retailers or Distributors to Your Products</h2>
External / Affiliate products are a great feature of WooCommerce, but they have one major limitation: you can’t sell a product yourself and link to the same product on a retailer or distributor’s website. This extension removes that limitation, and also allows you to list multiple retailers rather than one affiliate link.
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.
Perfect for products sold through multiple sales channels, such as a book available directly on-site, through Amazon, for Kindle, and Nook.

<h3>Easily Add Retailers / Distributors</h3>
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.
<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>
Add retailers to specific products:
<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>
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:
<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>
You can even opt to only show retailers when your product is out of stock, letting you generate referral revenue instead of backorders!
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!

Product Retailers

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

WP BackOffice

Link directly to a specific WooCommerce product variation using get variables – yoursite.com/your-single-product/?size=small&color=blue. This is useful if you want to send an email to customers and send them directly to a specific variation without them having to enter it in themselves.
Usage/Examples:
Attach: ‘?[variation_name]=[variation_value]‘ to the end of your product link to have the variations automatically appear on the user’s screen.
<ul>
<li>mysite.com/product/happy-ninja/?color=blue</li>
<li>mysite.com/product/happy-ninja/?color=blue&size=small (additional variations should be separated by ‘&’)</li>
<li>mysite.com/product/happy-ninja/?color=blue+green (where the variation value is “Blue Green” with the space replaced by a ‘+’)</li>
</ul>
Features:
<ul>
<li>No configuration needed, just install and start using</li>
<li>Supports an infinite number of variations</li>
<li>Fails gracefully, if the option or value doesn’t exist, the default value will appear instead</li>
<li>Default selected variations work if no product is specified in url</li>
<li>100% case insensitive</li>
<li>Works with any variation settings you have ie. custom images, prices etc.</li>
</ul>
