The one-size-fits-all checkout problem
WooCommerce checkout fields apply to ALL orders. Engraving fields for every product (even non-engravable). Business tax ID shown to consumers. Gift messages for $10 orders. Delivery instructions for digital products. Customers confused. Checkout cluttered. Conversion suffers.
Product-Based Display
Show fields only when specific products in cart. Engraving text for Product #123 only. Not for every order.
Category-Based Logic
Display fields when cart contains category items. Tax ID for wholesale category. Gift message for gift items.
Cart Total Triggers
Show fields when cart meets threshold. Gift wrapping for orders >= $50. Premium options for high-value carts.
Shipping Method Aware
Fields appear based on shipping selection. Delivery instructions only for local delivery. Not for pickup.
Why static fields fail
Existing checkout field plugins add fields to EVERY order with no conditional logic. Engraving text shows for non-engravable products. Business tax ID confuses consumers. Gift messages for $10 impulse buys. Checkout cluttered. Customers abandon. Conversion suffers.
Fields on every order
Existing plugins show all fields to all customers. Engraving for earrings. Tax ID for consumers. Cluttered checkout.
Confused customers
“Why am I seeing business tax ID for a $15 t-shirt?” Irrelevant fields confuse. Cart abandonment. Lost sales.
Conditional Checkout Fields: Smart display
Fields only appear when relevant. Engraving for jewelry. Tax ID for wholesale. Gift message for high-value orders. Clean checkout. Higher conversion.
💍 Real Example: Jewelry Engraving
Before: Field on every order
Customer buys earrings (non-engravable). Checkout shows “Engraving Text” field. Customer confused: “Can I engrave these?” Adds text. Order arrives. No engraving possible. Refund request. Negative review.
After: Smart conditional display
Create field: “Engraving Text” → Condition: Cart contains Category “Engravable Jewelry”. Customer buys earrings → No engraving field (clean checkout). Customer buys bracelet → “Engraving Text” appears. Enters “HAPPY BIRTHDAY”. Order processed correctly. Customer happy.
🏢 B2B Wholesale Tax ID
Setup: Field “Business Tax ID” → Required → Condition: Cart contains Category “Wholesale”
Consumer: Buys retail items → No tax ID field → Clean checkout
Business: Buys wholesale → Tax ID required → B2B order processed with tax exemption
