<h2>Smart Product, Payment & Shipping Controls Without Complexity</h2>
Take command of your store’s experience with precision rules that automatically:
<ul>
<li>Show/hide products, prices, or add-to-cart buttons based on who’s shopping.</li>
<li>Restrict payment and shipping methods by order value, customer type, or location.</li>
<li>Personalize displays without touching code – configure once and forget.</li>
</ul>
Eliminate checkout friction and create tailored shopping journeys for every visitor.
<h3>How It Works</h3>
Visibility Vault intelligently adjusts your store in real-time by analyzing three core aspects of each visitor:
<ol start="1">
<li>Customer Identity 
The system first identifies who is shopping, whether it’s a guest visitor, a specific registered customer, or a user belonging to particular roles like wholesalers or VIP members. This allows you to create rules like hiding prices from guests or showing exclusive products only to premium subscribers.</li>
<li>Geographic Location 
Using accurate geolocation data, Visibility Vault detects each customer’s country automatically. This enables geographic restrictions, letting you hide certain products in specific markets or offer location-based payment methods.</li>
<li>Shopping Context 
The plugin continuously monitors what customers have in their carts – including order value, product categories, and item quantities. This allows dynamic adjustments like disabling payment options for low-value orders.</li>
</ol>
The system combines these data points to enforce your rules precisely, creating a seamless, personalized shopping experience while maintaining your business requirements behind the scenes. All this happens automatically after your initial setup – no manual intervention needed.
<h3>Features</h3>
<ol start="1">
<li>Role-Based Catalog Control 
Hide/show entire product categories or individual items for different user roles (e.g., display wholesale-only products, hide clearance items from VIPs).</li>
<li>Geo-Targeted Catalog Control 
Automatically show/hide products by country (e.g., comply with regional regulations, run country-specific promotions).</li>
<li>Smart Button Replacement 
Transform “Add to Cart” into custom actions (e.g., “Get Quote” for B2B users, “Pre-Order Now” for coming soon items).</li>
<li>Cart-Adaptive Payment Gateways 
Dynamically enable/disable payment methods based on cart value (e.g., block COD for orders under $50) or product types.</li>
<li>Cart-Adaptive Shipping Methods Restrict shipping methods based on order total, customer role, product type, or location (e.g., disable free shipping below $100).</li>
<li>VIP-Exclusive Access 
Create private product collections visible only to specific customer tiers (e.g., early access for “Gold Member” users).</li>
<li>Bulk Category Restrictions 
Apply visibility rules to entire product categories or tags with one click (e.g., hide “Seasonal” category after holidays).</li>
<li>Time-Limited Visibility 
Schedule product displays (e.g., hide Black Friday deals post-event) using start/end dates.</li>
<li>Conflict Resolution System 
Priority-based rule hierarchy ensures correct application (e.g., country restrictions override user role exceptions).</li>
</ol>
Rule Based Catalog Management
Create and manage multiple rules to restrict products, prices, or add-to-cart buttons by user roles, specific customers, and countries. Configure each rule to hide entire products, only prices, or just buttons, with flexible targeting across individual products, categories, or global settings.

<h3>Hide Entire Product</h3>
Tailor your store’s catalog by completely hiding products from specific countries. Ensure customers only see items available in their region, reducing confusion and improving conversion rates.
When creating a “Restrict Product” rule, you can:
<ul>
<li>Select countries where the rule should apply – choose specific nations or apply globally</li>
<li>Choose to either show (whitelist) or hide (blacklist) selected products</li>
<li>Target by user roles (e.g., wholesalers) or specific customer accounts</li>
<li>Apply to individual products, entire categories, product tags, or brands</li>
<li>Set custom messages for restricted users or redirect them to another page</li>
</ul>
<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-18734005536214" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/edr-vis-2_778c88.png?w=721" alt="" width="721" height="843" />
<h3>Control Price & Add to Cart Button Visibility</h3>
Precisely manage which customers can view prices or checkout options. Hide sensitive pricing from competitors or show member-exclusive deals while replacing restricted elements with custom messages or alternative actions.
<h4 class="ds-markdown-paragraph">Configuration Options:</h4>
<ul>
<li>Hide prices and/or add to cart buttons</li>
<li>Replace with:
<ul>
<li>Custom text (e.g., “Login to view price”)</li>
<li>Alternative buttons (e.g., “Request Quote”) with custom URLs</li>
<li>Complete removal (show blank space</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h4>Scenario 1: Geo-Based Price Masking</h4>
Description:
Prevent price scraping by hiding prices in competitor-heavy regions, while showing them in target markets.
Rule Configuration:
<ul>
<li>Target: Countries = [China, Germany]</li>
<li>Actions:
<ul>
<li>Hide Price → Show “Request Quote” button (links to contact form)</li>
<li>Remove Add-to-Cart</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Scope: High-margin product categories</li>
</ul>
<h4>Scenario 2: “Contact Us” for Custom Orders</h4>
Description:
Your products require customization (e.g., engraved jewelry, bulk quotes) and can’t be bought directly.
Rule Configuration:
<ul>
<li>Target: Products = [Customizable Items]</li>
<li>Actions:
<ul>
<li>Keep Price Hidden</li>
<li>Replace Add to Cart with:
<ul>
<li>Button Text: “Request Quote”</li>
<li>Link: <code>/quote-form</code></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Scope: Specific products requiring customization</li>
</ul>

<h3>General Payment Method Settings</h3>
Configure default payment gateway availability that applies when no specific restriction rules are met. This serves as your store-wide baseline, allowing you to globally enable or disable payment options like PayPal, credit cards, or bank transfers. These settings are ideal for temporary maintenance (e.g., disabling COD during holidays) or establishing fallback behavior. Changes here affect all customers unless overridden by higher-priority restriction rules.
<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-18734005536277" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/edr-vis-3.png?w=893" alt="" width="893" height="356" />
<h3>Payment Method Restrictions</h3>
Create advanced rules to dynamically control payment options based on real-time conditions. Restrict gateways by:
<ul>
<li>Order value: Disable premium options for small orders</li>
<li>Customer location: Block high-risk payment methods in fraud-prone regions</li>
<li>User Status:Display wholesale payment methods only to approved business accounts</li>
</ul>
Each rule can combine multiple conditions (e.g., disable COD for international orders under $100). Rules use a priority system (1-10) where lower numbers override higher ones when conflicts occur, giving you precise control over which payment methods appear in different scenarios.
<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-18734005536289" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/edr-vis-4.png?w=896" alt="" width="896" height="746" />
<h3>Shipping Method Restrictions</h3>
Build flexible rules that automatically adjust available shipping options based on real-time cart, user, and location conditions. Restrict shipping methods by:
Order value: Disable free shipping for low-value carts (e.g., hide “Free Shipping” for orders under $75).
Customer location: Block specific methods in restricted regions (e.g., hide “Express Delivery” for remote areas or non-serviceable countries).
User status: Show premium delivery services only to logged-in members or VIP users (e.g., “Same-Day Delivery” for Gold members only).
Products in cart:  Automatically disable shipping methods whenever certain products are added to the cart. Example: If a fragile item is in the cart, hide “Standard Shipping” and force “Secure Packaging Shipping”.
Each rule can combine multiple conditions (e.g., disable “Free Shipping” for guest users ordering restricted products in international regions). Like payment rules, shipping rules also use a priority system (1–10) where lower numbers override higher ones, giving you full control over how shipping options appear in different scenarios.

<h2>Display Variations on Single Product Pages</h2>
WooCommerce variations display in a drop-down menu on a single product page. The customer must go to the single product page, choose a variation and add it to their cart. For stores that sell products with more variations, showing product variations as single products reduces friction in the purchasing flow. With Variations as Single Products for WooCommerce customers can instantly add multiple variations to their carts. With this plugin, you can save your customers time and improve their browsing experience. You can also hide the parent product from product listing pages.
<h2>Settings</h2>
<ul>
<li>Go to > WooCommerce > Settings > Variations as Products</li>
<li>Enable or disable: Select this checkbox to display variations as single products on product listing pages.</li>
<li>Hide parent products: Select this checkbox to hide parent products on product-listing pages.</li>
<li>Process variations: This button is useful to sync existing variations with the plugin. You will only need to use it once after your initial installation of Variations as Single Products for WooCommerce.</li>
