WooCommerce Product Updates

WooCommerce POS now supports Remote Tap-to-Pay, letting you turn an Android phone into a card reader for your tablet. The two devices talk to each other over your store's Wi-Fi network, so you don't need a separate Bluetooth card reader at every checkout station.

On the phone, open Card Reader Mode under Settings > Payments. The phone shows a 6-digit pairing code. From your tablet, start a card reader connection. The phone appears in the discovered readers list with the same code. Tap to confirm, ring up the sale on the tablet, and the phone prompts the customer to tap...

Square for WooCommerce 5.3.3 adds a new Woo Admin dashboard notice that alerts you when your WooCommerce product catalog hasn't synced with Square recently, so you can catch issues before they affect inventory.

The Subscriptions Health Check tool gives merchants a clear view of subscriptions that may not be renewing as expected — so you can review them and take action from the subscription edit screen.

Find it at WooCommerce > Status > Subscriptions. It runs on a nightly schedule and can be triggered manually at any time. No automatic changes are made to your subscriptions.

The tool surfaces two categories:

Supports auto-renewal — subscriptions currently set to manual renewal where the customer has a saved payment token on a gateway that supports automatic billing. These are the ones most likely to warrant a closer look.
