Overview

About this plugin

Transform Browsers Into Buyers

Velocity Wishlist is a feature-rich, performance-optimized wishlist solution for WooCommerce stores. Allow your customers to save products they love and return to purchase them later – proven to increase conversion rates and customer engagement.

Unlike most wishlist plugins, Velocity Wishlist works seamlessly for guest visitors. Session-based wishlists automatically migrate to customer accounts when they register – never lose a potential sale.
