About this plugin
KB External Store Buttons for WooCommerce lets you send shoppers straight to where you actually sell — Amazon, Flipkart, WhatsApp, or any external store — instead of (or alongside) the standard Add to Cart button.
Rather than hardcoding a fixed set of marketplaces, the plugin gives you a Marketplace Manager. Define any marketplace once with its own name and icon, then simply paste the matching URL on each product. No plugin update is needed when a new marketplace becomes popular — just add it.
Key features
- Marketplace Manager — add, rename, reorder, enable/disable or remove any marketplace from one screen.
- Built-in icons — WhatsApp, Amazon and Flipkart for the default marketplaces, plus a set of generic store/cart/bag/gift/globe/link/phone icons and a Custom SVG option for the marketplaces you add.
- Global button colours — set the default background, text and hover colours for your marketplace buttons.
- WhatsApp buttons — send a pre-filled order message (product name, price and link) to your number.
- Per-product URLs — each product (and each variation) gets a URL field for every enabled link marketplace. Leave a URL empty to hide that button for that product.
- Variable product support — buttons update automatically when a shopper picks a variation.
- Privacy-friendly click analytics — track aggregate clicks by marketplace, product and variation with 7/30/90-day and all-time reports, plus Daily / Weekly / Monthly line-chart views. No visitor IP addresses, user agents or plugin cookies are stored.
- Optional Add to Cart hiding — hide Add to Cart on the product page and/or shop listings, independently of the buttons.
- Direct “Buy Now” button — an optional one-click button that adds the product (respecting the chosen quantity and variation) and sends the shopper straight to checkout.
- Live preview — see your buttons update as you edit the settings.
- Adjustable button size and an option to show or hide icons.

Built for stores that sell elsewhere
Affiliate stores, catalogue sites, brands that list on multiple marketplaces, and businesses that take orders over WhatsApp can all use the same buttons without touching code.
Privacy and External Services
Click analytics is stored locally in your WordPress database as daily aggregate counters by product, variation and marketplace. The plugin does not store visitor IP addresses, user agents, user IDs or individual click records, and it does not set analytics cookies. Analytics can be disabled and aggregate data can be cleared from the Analytics tab.

Other marketplace buttons open the external URLs configured by the store owner. The plugin does not load remote scripts or styles and does not make server-side requests to those marketplaces.
