About this plugin
WP Stripe Cart is the simple way to sell products on WordPress with a real shopping cart — without the weight of WooCommerce.
Most Stripe plugins force a choice: a heavy full eCommerce platform you have to configure and maintain, or a single “Buy Now” button with no cart at all. WP Stripe Cart sits exactly in between. You get a genuine multi-item cart and checkout — customers can add several products, adjust quantities, and pay in one go — while your site stays fast and clean.
Products and prices are managed in your Stripe dashboard and displayed on any page or post with a simple shortcode. Stripe stays the single source of truth, so there is no bloated product database to maintain inside WordPress. Cart, checkout, tax, and order tracking are all handled for you.
Why WP Stripe Cart?
- A real cart, not just a button. Sell multiple items in one checkout — not one-product-at-a-time.
- Lightweight and fast. No page-builder bloat, no dozens of database tables slowing your site down.
- No monthly fees. You only ever pay standard Stripe processing rates.
- Mobile-first checkout. Apple Pay and Google Pay work out of the box for one-tap payments.
- Managed in Stripe. Create and price products in Stripe; display them anywhere with a shortcode.
- Your data stays yours. Order and customer data lives on your own site and in your Stripe account — no third-party store host in the middle.
- Theme-integrated design. Inherits your theme’s colors and typography so the cart looks native.
- Multi-currency ready. Handles multiple currencies with correct formatting.
- Translation-ready. Ships with English and Japanese, and is ready for more.
What can you sell?
WP Stripe Cart works for a wide range of use cases:
- Digital downloads (ebooks, software, templates, music)
- Physical products with shipping
- Services and bookings
- Memberships
- Donations
- Event tickets
Add a product in seconds
Create the product in Stripe, then drop the shortcode where you want it:
[wsc-get-product product_id="prod_XXXXXXXX"]
That’s it — the product renders with an “Add to cart” control, and checkout works immediately.
A simpler alternative to WooCommerce
If you have looked at WooCommerce and felt it was overkill — too many settings, too many extensions, too much overhead just to take a few payments — WP Stripe Cart gives you the checkout you actually need with a fraction of the setup. And unlike single-payment button plugins, you still get a proper cart when a customer wants to buy more than one thing.
