Checkout Rules – Conditional Checkout for WooCommerce lets you define powerful rules that control how checkout behaves based on cart contents, customer data, shipping destinations, and more.

Instead of hiding fields or countries, the plugin can validate conditions and display a custom notice when customers attempt to place an order, ensuring clarity and compliance with business rules.

The plugin works with both Classic Checkout (shortcode) and WooCommerce Checkout Blocks.

The plugin settings are organized into four dedicated tabs, making it easy to manage different checkout controls independently.

Typical use cases

• Restrict payment methods by cart content, total, or customer role
• Validate shipping destination (country / state) before order submission
• Prevent checkout for specific customers or email domains
• Enforce business rules with clear custom notices
• Apply conditional logic without breaking WooCommerce UX

Conditional Payments

Control the availability of payment gateways based on defined conditions.

Key features:
– Enable or disable specific payment gateways
– Only selected gateways are affected; all others remain unchanged
– Compatible with WooCommerce Payments and third-party gateways
– Conditions are evaluated dynamically during checkout

Conditional Shipping Destinations

Validate customer shipping destinations without hiding any checkout fields.

How it works:
– Select allowed or disallowed countries and states
– Countries and states are NOT hidden from checkout
– Validation runs when the customer places the order
– A custom notice is displayed if the selected destination is not allowed
– Fully compatible with Checkout Blocks

This approach avoids UX issues caused by dynamically hiding country or state fields.

Conditional Shipping, Billing, Note Fields

Define the message shown to customers when a rule prevents checkout.

Capabilities:
– Custom message per rule
– Clear and user-friendly checkout error notices
– Useful for explaining business, legal, or shipping restrictions
– Displayed only when conditions are met

Conditional Rules

Define the logic that determines when a rule should apply.

Supported condition types include:
– Cart total
– Cart quantity
– Cart weight (unit is taken from WooCommerce settings)
– Products in cart (include / exclude)
– Product categories
– Brands (taxonomy-based)
– Shipping class
– Billing country / state
– Shipping country / state
– Customer role
– Customer email (supports wildcard matching, e.g. *@example.com)
– Order status

Multiple conditions can be combined to create advanced rule logic.
