What customers say about our WooCommerce Better Variations plugin

This is the only plugin I've found that handles out-of-stock variations well! With the plugin, the out-of-stock options can be grayed out and made unselectable, or the styling (color and sort order) of the variations can be altered to make the out-of-stock options appear at the bottom of the list and they are clearly shown in a different color with a message. Highly recommended.

Highly recommended.

Better Variations is working well for us at Velospeed.  It's allowing people to see which bikes are actually in stock which we couldn't do before and that helps them make their decision more easily. The whole process of buying the plugin and being able to discuss with you directly was trouble-free and easy.  Thanks!

Pre-sales and Licensing

Will this plugin work with my theme?

All my plugins are independent of the theme being used so there shouldn't be any problems. If you do run into any issues, just let us know and we will take a look.

Do you offer refunds?

Yes, there’s a 14 day money back guarantee. The purpose of this guarantee is to give you plenty of time to assess the plugin to see if it will meet your needs.

During the 14 days, if you’ve got any questions about the plugin and what you are hoping to achieve with it, just raise a support ticket and we’ll get back to you.

You can find out how to register your refund request here.

Is there a free trial?

We don’t offer free trials or backend demos but all products are backed by a 14 money back guarantee so if the plugin isn’t what you wanted, we will issue you with a refund.

This allows you to spend time testing the plugin on your own environment, with your own theme and with your own plugins. It’s the best way to help you be sure that the plugin is what you want.

You can also upgrade your licence at any time – so, if you wish,  you can purchase a Yearly licence initially then upgrade to the Lifetime licence within the first year and just pay the difference.

If you have any questions during your 14 day refund period, you can raise a support ticket and we will get straight back to you.

How long is the licence valid for?

Yearly licences are valid for a year. During that time you are entitled to receive free updates and support. After 12 months, yearly licences will automatically renew. You can cancel at any time.

Lifetime licences are a single, one-off payment. Lifetime licences do not expire and you are entitled to receive all future updates for the plugin.

You can purchase a Yearly licence then upgrade to Lifetime if you wish. Upgrade within the first year to just pay the difference.

Can I upgrade my licence and just pay the difference?

Yes, you can upgrade your licence any time in the first year and just pay the difference. So if you want to upgrade from Basic to Pro or if you want to upgrade from Yearly to Lifetime, you can do so and only pay the difference in price.

Also, if you wish, you upgrade from one product to a bundle that contains that product and also only pay the difference. So you can buy one or more products then upgrade to the All Access Bundle and only pay the difference in price.

What’s the difference between Basic and Pro licences?

The Basic licence entitles you to updates and support for one site; the Pro licence entitles you to updates and support for unlimited sites.

You can try out the Basic licence first then upgrade to Pro at any time. Here’s how to upgrade your licence.

Is the plugin translatable?

Yes, all our plugins are fully translatable and many come with translations in various languages. If you wish to contribute your own translations, we can add those to the core plugin to ensure they don't get overwritten.

The plugins are also compatible with WPML and other popular multilingual plugins like LocoTranslate.

Features

Can the plugin display stock status for individual product variations?

Yes, the plugin displays stock status for each product variation. Customers can see whether a specific variation (e.g., size, color) is in stock or out of stock, improving their shopping experience and reducing cart abandonment.

How does the plugin handle out-of-stock variations?

When a product variation is out of stock, the plugin can automatically display a custom message and/or disable the variation from the dropdown field. You can configure these settings to suit your store’s needs.

Can I customize the out-of-stock messages?

Yes, you can customize the out-of-stock messages displayed to customers. This helps maintain a consistent brand voice and provides clear communication about product availability.

Can I display variations in a grid?

Yes, you can use the plugin to display your variations as a bulk order form so that customers can select quantities for multiple variations and add them all to the cart with one click.
