About this plugin
Akkedli Connector bridges your WooCommerce store with the Akkedli platform to eliminate fake orders and drastically cut return-to-sender rates — especially for Cash-on-Delivery (COD) merchants.
The Problem
COD stores lose thousands in fake orders, wrong addresses, and customers who deny placing orders. Manual phone verification is slow, expensive, and doesn’t scale.
The Akkedli Solution
- A customer places an order on your store
- Akkedli instantly sends a WhatsApp message asking the customer to confirm
- The customer taps Confirm or Cancel — takes 5 seconds
- Your WooCommerce order status updates automatically
No more calling customers. No more shipping to fake addresses. Ship only confirmed orders.
Key Features
- Automated WhatsApp Verification — Customers confirm orders instantly via WhatsApp
- Real-Time Status Sync — Order status changes in WooCommerce are instantly reflected in Akkedli
- Reduce Fake Orders — Stop shipping to unverified customers and save on returns
- Custom Order Status — New “Confirmed by Akkedli” status to easily track verified orders
- One-Click Setup — Connect your store in seconds from the Akkedli Dashboard
- HPOS Compatible — Full support for WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage
