FAQ

Is this a full WooCommerce replacement?

No. It is intentionally focused and simple for quick store launches.

Does it calculate taxes or shipping?

No. V1 intentionally excludes inventory, tax, and shipping logic.

How do order notifications work?

Configure your Stripe success URL to return to your site with signed params:
?yuzoco_order=success&yuzoco_product=PRODUCT_SLUG&yuzoco_session=ORDER_ID&yuzoco_nonce=…&yuzoco_token=…

When that URL is loaded, the plugin sends a notification email to the configured admin email.
