Mailena for WooCommerce

Description

Mailena for WooCommerce connects one WooCommerce shop with one brand in Mailena, an external newsletter service. Once connected, Mailena can read your published products so that you can insert them into newsletters with current prices, images and links.

Mailena and this plugin are developed by SXT Media, Austria. WooCommerce is a trademark of its respective owner; this plugin is not affiliated with or endorsed by WooCommerce or Automattic.

The plugin is deliberately small:

• It only provides product data, read-only. It never changes products.
• It does not transfer customers, orders, carts, user accounts, coupons or tracking data.
• It adds nothing to your shop frontend: no scripts, no styles, no cookies, no checkout fields.
• It does not create WooCommerce REST API keys. Mailena reads products through three dedicated, signed REST routes of this plugin.
• Nothing is sent to Mailena before you enter a connection code.

The plugin itself is free. Using Mailena requires a Mailena account, and Mailena may require a paid subscription.

Further functions for WooCommerce shops are being prepared; they are not part of this version.

Supported products

• Simple products: fully supported.
• Variable products: provided as one product with the lowest-priced purchasable variation (all price fields from that same variation) and the price range of all purchasable variations. Variations are not provided individually.
• External/affiliate products: provided with their target URL and button text.
• Grouped products and product types of other extensions (for example subscriptions or bundles): provided with their raw data and type; Mailena may skip them.

Prices are the base prices in the shop currency as a guest visitor sees them in the catalog (tax display according to the shop settings). Currency conversion, customer, role or quantity prices of other extensions are not supported. Compatibility with other plugins is not guaranteed.

External service

This plugin connects to the external service Mailena (operated at app.mailena.io).

• What is sent and when:
  • When you click Connect: the code (to https://app.mailena.io/api/connectors/woocommerce/v1/connect/inspect) to look up company and brand, then the code, a random installation ID, site address, home address, shop name, the address of the plugin’s REST routes and the WordPress, WooCommerce and plugin versions (to /connect/register).
  • When the settings screen is opened (at most every 5 minutes) and on “Update status”: a signed status request (/connections/{id}).
  • When you disconnect, deactivate or uninstall the plugin: a signed revocation (/connections/{id}/revoke).
• What Mailena reads from your shop after the connection: product data of published, not hidden products without password (name, link, SKU, short description, images with alternative texts, prices, sale prices and periods, stock status, tax status, modification date) and general shop information (name, addresses, language, time zone, currency, tax display settings, versions, number of products). Mailena reads this data at the first import, automatically about every 24 hours, when someone starts a sync in Mailena and to check prices before sending a newsletter.
• Purpose: inserting your products into newsletters in Mailena.
