When it comes to eCommerce, WooCommerce is one of the most popular platforms available. It’s easy to use and has a lot of great features.

One thing that it doesn’t have though, is a custom buy now button.

If you want to add a custom buy now button in WooCommerce, there are a few different ways that you can do it. One way is to use a plugin.

There are a few different plugins that you can use, but we recommend using the ‘WooCommerce Custom Add to Cart Button’ plugin. This plugin is free and it’s easy to use.

Another way that you can add a custom buy now button in WooCommerce is by editing the code. This is a bit more complicated and we don’t recommend it unless you know what you’re doing.

PRO TIP: This note is to warn you about the possible risks of adding a custom “Buy Now” button to your WooCommerce store. While this may seem like a great way to increase sales, it could also lead to decreased conversions and higher cart abandonment rates.

Some things to consider before adding a custom “Buy Now” button to your WooCommerce store:

1. Make sure that your “Buy Now” button is prominently displayed and easy to find. If it’s buried on your website, potential customers may not even know that they can buy your products directly from your store.

2. Consider the user experience. Is your “Buy Now” button easy to use? Will it take potential customers too long to add items to their cart and checkout? If so, they may abandon their purchase altogether.

3. Test, test, test! Before you launch your “Buy Now” button, make sure to test it thoroughly. Try adding items to your cart and going through the checkout process yourself to make sure everything works as it should.

4. Monitor your results. Once you’ve launched your “Buy Now” button, keep an eye on your sales and conversion rates. If you see a significant drop-off in either of these metrics

Save the file and upload it to your server. You should now see a custom buy now button on your product pages.

Adding a custom buy now button in WooCommerce is easy to do and there are a few different ways that you can do it. We recommend using a plugin or editing the code.
