About this plugin
Kudora brings three things most stores end up buying separately — discount rules & smart coupons, gift cards and loyalty points & rewards — together in one plugin, with nothing locked behind a paid version. It works with the classic cart and checkout and with the Cart and Checkout blocks, and supports WooCommerce’s High-Performance Order Storage.
Turn off any module you do not need under WooCommerce → Settings → Kudora.
Smart coupons & discount rules
- Product discounts — percent off, amount off or a fixed price for chosen products, categories or tags. Shown as sale prices in the shop and in the cart.
- Bulk / tiered pricing — quantity ranges (per line, per product or across products) with an optional pricing table on product pages.
- Cart discounts — percent or amount off, limited to products you choose, with an optional maximum.
- Buy X get Y (BOGO) — free, percent off or amount off; same or different products; repeat; cheapest or most expensive item; optional automatic “add the free product to the cart”.
- Bundle prices — “any 3 for $25”.
- Free shipping rules.
- Conditions for every rule and coupon: cart subtotal and quantity, products, categories, tags, coupons used, logged in, user role, email or domain, first order, number of orders, total spent, previously bought products or categories, billing/shipping country, day of the week, time of day, dates, loyalty tier and points balance.
- Priority, exclusive rules, schedules, usage limits, “not with coupons”.
- Promotion notices — “Add $12.00 more to get free shipping!”.
- Smart coupons on top of WooCommerce coupons: start date, weekday and time-of-day schedule, conditions, auto-apply, coupon links (?coupon=CODE ), Buy X get Y coupons, free-product coupons, maximum discount for percentage coupons, status and times-used columns, and a usage history on each coupon.
- Coupon generator — create hundreds of unique codes from a template coupon (optionally one per email) and download them as CSV.
Gift cards
- Turn any simple or variable product into a gift card: preset amounts, custom amounts (min/max) or variations as denominations.
- Customers add the recipient, sender, a message, a delivery date and pick a design, with a live preview of the card.
- Codes are created only after payment and emailed to the recipient — immediately or on the chosen date — with a PDF attachment and a printable page with a QR code. The buyer is told when it was delivered.
- Customers redeem the code in a gift card field or simply in the coupon field, in the classic checkout and the Checkout block. Partial use and several cards per order are supported; the card pays after tax and can cover shipping.
- Balances are updated in one atomic database step, so the same money can never be spent twice.
- Cancelled or failed orders give the money back to the card; admins can refund to the card or issue store credit from the order screen.
- Expiry dates, restrictions to products or categories, physical cards, and payment methods allowed for buying gift cards. Gift cards never pay for gift cards.
- Balance check block and shortcode, and a Gift cards tab in My Account where customers can also save a card to their account.
- Admin: codes with balance, spent and expiry; full history of every card; manual and bulk creation; balance adjustments; designs (colour or image); sales report; outstanding balance; CSV import and export.
Loyalty points & rewards
- Points per currency spent, on products after or before discounts, or on the order total; points are given when the order is paid or completed.
- Earning rules: award extra points or multiply points for chosen products when conditions match.
- Unlimited tiers with badge colours and earning multipliers. Tiers can follow lifetime points (spending keeps the tier) or the current balance.
- Bonus points for creating an account, the first order, product reviews (verified buyers) and birthdays.
- Pay with points at checkout — the customer chooses how many, or the best discount is applied automatically — with a point value, a maximum discount, a minimum and a maximum number of points per order, and excluded products.
- Rewards catalog: customers turn points into a coupon for an amount off, a percentage (with a cap), free shipping or a free product, with tier requirements and per-customer limits.
- Referral program: every customer gets a link; friends get a first-order discount and the referrer gets points or a coupon. Self-referrals, repeat customers, small orders and more than a monthly cap are refused.
- Points expiry (oldest points are used first) with a reminder email.
- Refunds and cancellations take back earned points proportionally and return points that were spent.
- My Account “Points & rewards” page with the balance, tier progress (“collect 250 more points to become Gold”), history, rewards and referral link; a loyalty card block; “earn X points” on product, cart and checkout pages.
- Admin: customers and balances with manual adjustments, logs with filters, statistics (earned, redeemed, redemption rate, active customers) and CSV export, points import.
Emails
Gift card, gift card delivered, points earned, tier upgraded, points expiring, reward claimed and referral reward — all editable under WooCommerce → Settings → Emails, with templates you can override in your theme.
Privacy
Kudora registers a personal data exporter and eraser. Erasing removes names, emails, messages and birthdays but keeps gift card balances and points history, which are financial records.
