<p>MyD Notifications is a paid add-on that works natively with this plugin. Every time an order status changes in WooCommerce, the matching WhatsApp message fires automatically. No manual work, no extra setup beyond an API key from the MyD dashboard.</p>

<p><strong>Arik Sahaj Checkout</strong> turns WhatsApp into a real WooCommerce checkout flow. Unlike basic “click-to-chat” plugins, this plugin creates a real WooCommerce order (a <em>shadow order</em>) the moment a customer clicks the WhatsApp button protecting your inventory from overselling while the customer completes the conversation on WhatsApp.</p>
<h4>Why a “Shadow Order”?</h4>
<p>When a customer clicks the WhatsApp button, the plugin:</p>
<ol>
<li>Creates a real WooCommerce order with the selected product, quantity, and variations</li>
<li>Reduces stock immediately (atomic no race conditions)</li>
<li>Opens WhatsApp with a pre-filled message including the Order ID</li>
<li>Suppresses transactional emails so admin and customer aren’t notified prematurely</li>
</ol>
<p>The result: your inventory is protected, your dashboard has a clean record of every WhatsApp inquiry, and you never oversell.</p>
<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Real WooCommerce Orders</strong>: Every click creates a trackable WooCommerce order</li>
<li><strong>Atomic Inventory Protection</strong>: Stock reduced via <code>wc_reduce_stock_levels()</code> — safe under concurrent load</li>
<li><strong>Variable Product Support</strong>: Captures size, color, and other variation selections</li>
<li><strong>High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) compatible</strong>: Full support for WooCommerce HPOS</li>
<li><strong>Cart & Checkout Blocks compatible</strong>: Works alongside the WooCommerce Blocks experience</li>
<li><strong>Popup-Blocker Safe</strong>: Opens WhatsApp tab synchronously on click; never blocked</li>
<li><strong>Honeypot Anti-Spam</strong>: Built-in bot protection without CAPTCHA</li>
<li><strong>Rate Limiting</strong>: Per-IP and per-user, configurable, with HTTP 429 responses</li>
<li><strong>Customizable Message Templates</strong>: Use placeholders for product name, order ID, total, variations, date</li>
<li><strong>Flexible Button Positioning</strong>: Before, after, or replace the Add to Cart button</li>
<li><strong>Configurable Order Status</strong>: Choose any valid WooCommerce status for shadow orders</li>
<li><strong>Email Suppression</strong>: Shadow orders never trigger admin/customer emails</li>
<li><strong>Block Theme Support</strong>: Compatible with Twenty Twenty-Four and other block themes</li>
<li><strong>Translation Ready</strong>: Full i18n/l10n support</li>
<li><strong>Multisite Compatible</strong>: Network activation with per-site settings</li>
<li><strong>Accessibility-First</strong>: ARIA attributes, keyboard navigation, <code>prefers-reduced-motion</code>, high-contrast mode</li>
<li><strong>RTL Support</strong>: Right-to-left languages fully supported</li>
<li><strong>WP-CLI Compatible</strong>: Plugin activation via <code>wp plugin activate</code> works correctly</li>
</ul>
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<ol>
<li>Customer browses your shop and selects a product</li>
<li>Clicks “Order via WhatsApp”</li>
<li>Plugin creates a real WooCommerce order with status of your choice (default: On Hold)</li>
<li>Stock is reduced automatically</li>
<li>WhatsApp opens in a new tab with a pre-filled message including the Order ID</li>
<li>Customer messages you on WhatsApp you reference the Order ID in your WooCommerce dashboard</li>
</ol>
<h4>Perfect For</h4>

<h3>Privacy Policy</h3>
<p>This plugin does not collect or transmit any personal data to external services. All order data is stored locally in your WordPress/WooCommerce database, which you control.</p>
<p>The plugin stores the following data on each shadow order:</p>
<ul>
<li>Customer IP address (standard WooCommerce field for fraud prevention)</li>
<li>Customer user agent (standard WooCommerce field for fraud prevention)</li>
<li>Product ID, variation ID, quantity, and variation attributes selected</li>
<li>Order timestamp</li>
</ul>
<p>For logged-in customers, the order is attached to their WordPress user account. Anonymous customers have no personally identifying data stored beyond IP/user agent (which WooCommerce stores for all orders, not just shadow orders).</p>
<p>No data is sent to any third-party service. The WhatsApp deep link (<code>wa.me</code>) opens on the customer’s device using only the destination number and message text you configure the plugin does not contact WhatsApp’s servers itself.</p>
<h3>Requirements</h3>
<ul>
<li>WordPress 6.0 or higher</li>
<li>WooCommerce 7.0 or higher (tested up to 9.5)</li>
<li>PHP 7.4 or higher</li>
