Connections are optional unless you enable the related feature and save credentials. **Stripe (card and wallet payments)** When you enable Stripe under **MarvCart Settings Payments**, MarvCart uses Stripe to process card payments (Payment Elements or Checkout Sessions), and optionally Klarna / Afterpay–Clearpay when those BNPL options are enabled in the same settings screen. Data sent to Stripe when a customer pays (or when the merchant refunds an order): order amount and currency, line-item descriptions, customer name/email from checkout, and payment method details handled by Stripe.js / Stripe APIs. Webhook events may also be received from Stripe to confirm payment or refund status. Stripe.js (`https://js.stripe.com/v3/`) loads on your checkout page only when Stripe Payment Elements is enabled and configured. Service provider: Stripe — [Terms of service](https://stripe.com/legal), [Privacy policy](https://stripe.com/privacy) **PayPal (online checkout)** When you enable PayPal under **MarvCart Settings Payments**, MarvCart talks to PayPal’s REST API (live or sandbox) to create/capture payments and, if configured, to verify webhook notifications. Data sent when a customer pays with PayPal: order amount and currency, order reference/ metadata, and buyer details required by PayPal for checkout. Refund and capture status may be synchronized via PayPal webhooks. Service provider: PayPal — [User agreement](https://www.paypal.com/us/legalhub/useragreement-full), [Privacy statement](https://www.paypal.com/us/legalhub/privacy-full) **Freemius (Pro upgrade checkout)** On the **MarvCart Upgrade** admin screen, the free plugin may load Freemius Checkout(` https://checkout.freemius.com/`) so a site owner can start a MarvCart Pro purchase. This is admin-only and is not used on the public storefront. Data sent during checkout is handled by Freemius (account email, billing details, and license/plan selection as entered in the Freemius dialog). Service provider: Freemius — [Terms](https://freemius.com/terms/), [Privacy policy](https://freemius.com/privacy/) **Outbound webhooks (your URLs)** Under **MarvCart Settings Advanced Webhooks**, you can register URLs you control( for example Zapier or Make). When enabled, MarvCart sends order event payloads to those URLs. This is optional, configured by the site owner, and does not use getmarvcart. com servers. The destination’s terms and privacy policy are those of the service you choose. ### Copyright MarvCart WordPress Plugin, Copyright 2024–2026 MarvCart and Whittfield Holmes MarvCart is distributed under the terms of the GNU GPL v2 or later. ## Screenshots [⌊MarvCart dashboard — sales summary, recent orders, and setup progress⌉⌊MarvCart dashboard — sales summary, recent orders, and setup progress⌉[ MarvCart dashboard — sales summary, recent orders, and setup progress [⌊Setup wizard — creates shop, cart, checkout, and account pages with Gutenberg blocks⌉⌊Setup wizard — creates shop, cart, checkout, and account pages with Gutenberg blocks⌉[ Setup wizard — creates shop, cart, checkout, and account pages with Gutenberg blocks [⌊Products — catalogue list with pricing, stock, categories, and variations⌉⌊Products— catalogue list with pricing, stock, categories, and variations⌉[ Products — catalogue list with pricing, stock, categories, and variations [⌊Product editor — description, pricing, gallery, variations, custom tabs, and digital downloads⌉⌊Product editor — description, pricing, gallery, variations, custom tabs, and digital downloads⌉[ Product editor — description, pricing, gallery, variations, custom tabs, and digital downloads [⌊Locations — optional pickup hours, slot length, lead time, and capacity rules⌉⌊ Locations — optional pickup hours, slot length, lead time, and capacity rules⌉[ Locations — optional pickup hours, slot length, lead time, and capacity rules [⌊Orders — payment status, fulfillment details, and order workflow filters⌉⌊Orders— payment status, fulfillment details, and order workflow filters⌉[ Orders — payment status, fulfillment details, and order workflow filters [⌊Payments — Stripe Payment Elements, PayPal, and manual methods on one screen⌉⌊ Payments — Stripe Payment Elements, PayPal, and manual methods on one screen⌉[ Payments — Stripe Payment Elements, PayPal, and manual methods on one screen [⌊Sales reports — revenue, orders, top products, and location breakdown⌉⌊Sales reports— revenue, orders, top products, and location breakdown⌉[ Sales reports — revenue, orders, top products, and location breakdown [⌊Coupons — percentage or fixed discounts applied at checkout⌉⌊Coupons — percentage or fixed discounts applied at checkout⌉[ Coupons — percentage or fixed discounts applied at checkout ## Installation 1.

Sell from a built-in catalogue, cart, and checkout, with products and orders managed in wp-admin. ### Does the free version expire? No. The free plugin is fully functional with no time limits. ### How do I create product variations? Edit a product and open the **Variations** meta box. Define attribute names and comma-separated options (e.g. Size: S, M, L), click **Generate variations**, then bulk-edit prices and stock. Use `{parent_sku}-{Size}-{Color}` SKU patterns for automatic SKUs. ### How do I accept card payments? Open **Settings Payments**, enter your Stripe and/or PayPal keys under **Online payment gateways**, and enable the methods you need. Payment Elements keeps card checkout on your site. Cash and bank transfer remain under **Manual payment methods** on the same screen. ### How do digital downloads work? With **MarvCart Pro**, mark a product as digital, attach files from the media library, and configure download limits under **Settings Digital files**. Customers receive secure links after purchase. ### How do product breadcrumbs work? MarvCart can show **Home / Shop / product** breadcrumbs on native product pages. Choose **one** source: * **Your theme** — leave **Settings Catalogue Breadcrumbs** off (default), or disable breadcrumbs in your theme. * **MarvCart plugin** — turn on **Settings Catalogue Breadcrumbs** when your theme does not provide them. * **Breadcrumbs block** — add the block in the editor for custom placement; it works independently of the catalogue setting. The plugin does not hide theme breadcrumbs automatically. If both are enabled, you may see duplicates until you turn off one side. Theme developers can call `marvcart_product_breadcrumbs_enabled()` before rendering theme breadcrumbs, or use the `marvcart/commerce/show_breadcrumbs` filter. See https://getmarvcart.com/docs/breadcrumbs/ for setup and integration examples. ### Where is the full blocks reference? See **MarvCart Shortcodes** in wp-admin for copy-ready shortcodes and block usage, or visit https://getmarvcart.com/docs ### Where are the Pro setup instructions? Install the separate **MarvCart Pro** plugin for marketing, reports, and advanced operations. Payment setup (Stripe/PayPal) is in the free plugin under **Settings Payments**. See https://getmarvcart.com/docs for the full guide. ### How do I extend MarvCart in code? MarvCart exposes WordPress action and filter hooks (for example `marvcart/cart/*`,` marvcart/checkout/*`, `marvcart/order/*`, and `marvcart/product/breadcrumbs`). See https://getmarvcart.com/docs for the developer reference. ### Will MarvCart slow down my whole site? No. Storefront CSS and JavaScript load only on MarvCart pages — product pages, your shop/cart/checkout/account pages, and any page that includes a MarvCart block or shortcode. Plain blog or about pages do not get MarvCart assets. Optional feature scripts (product carousel, brands, hero) load only when that block is on the page. Stripe.js loads only on checkout when Payment Elements is enabled. Self-hosted fonts are used instead of a third-party font CDN. ### Can I use MarvCart on multiple sites? The free plugin works on unlimited sites. Pro licenses are tiered: Single, 5 Sites, or Unlimited. ### Can I migrate from WooCommerce? Yes. Use **MarvCart WooCommerce migration** in wp-admin. The tool is included in this plugin and is fully functional. WooCommerce must be installed for the importer to detect source data. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “MarvCart” is open source software.
