Overview

About this plugin

Instant Buy & Skip Cart for WooCommerce adds a one-click Buy Now button that skips the cart page entirely and sends customers straight to checkout.

By default, WooCommerce sends every customer through the cart page before checkout. That extra step works fine for stores with multi-item baskets, but for single-product stores, digital downloads, or promotional campaigns, it’s often just friction — and friction is where sales get lost. According to research from the Baymard Institute, a lengthy or overly complicated checkout process is one of the leading reasons shoppers abandon their cart before completing a purchase.

This plugin removes that friction. Click Buy Now, skip the cart, land on checkout — done. It works on Single Product pages as well as Shop, Category, and Tag pages, so the faster path to purchase follows customers wherever they start browsing, not just on individual product listings.

Whether you sell physical products, digital downloads, subscriptions, or a single featured product, this plugin gives you a simple, no-code way to speed up your WooCommerce checkout flow.
