Turn a chat message into a one-click checkout. CartLink Generator for WooCommerce lets you build a cart for a customer — products, quantities, even custom prices — and share it as a single link. When they open it, the cart is pre-filled and they go straight to checkout. No searching, no adding to cart, no friction.

It’s built for the way people actually sell today: over WhatsApp, Instagram DMs, Telegram, Messenger, email and live chat. Instead of telling a customer “search for product X, add 2, then find product Y,” you send them one link that does it all — cutting 3–4 steps out of the buying journey and driving faster conversions.

Generate the link in the admin, then share it instantly with the built-in WhatsApp, Telegram and email buttons, or let your customer scan the auto-generated QR code in person or from a printed flyer.

Why store owners use it

Chat commerce & social selling — send a ready-to-buy cart link in any conversation.
Direct “Buy Now” links — skip the cart page entirely and land the customer on checkout.
Custom quotes & negotiated prices — set a per-product price or a fixed subtotal discount for a specific customer.
Sales reps & wholesale — prepare an order for a client and let them confirm with one tap.
Campaigns & flyers — drop a QR code on print or social and send scanners straight to a pre-filled cart.
Know who paid — every link shows “opened” and “ordered” status, so chat sellers never have to ask “did you check out?”.

Key Features

Create and share dynamic cart or checkout links with pre-filled products and quantities.
Set custom prices per product or a fixed subtotal discount for the whole cart.
Add custom fees (name, quantity, price — e.g. “Tip for chat operator”) that are applied to the generated cart at checkout.
Custom link slugs — /cartlink_autogenerate/summer-box/ instead of a random id. Availability is checked as you type; a slug stays locked while its link is active and can be reused after expiry only when you confirm it.
Pre-filled checkout — attach the customer’s name, email and phone to the link and the checkout opens with those fields already filled (classic and block checkout).
Coupon links — attach a coupon code and it is applied automatically when the link opens, while other coupons stay blocked on generated carts.
Order tracking — see whether each link was opened and which order it turned into, right in the Recent links table. The order gets a note (and meta) pointing back to the link.
One-click sharing to WhatsApp, Telegram and email, plus native mobile share.
QR code generated for every link — perfect for in-person and print.
Recent links management screen: review, copy or revoke any link you’ve created.
Live total preview while you build the cart.
Fast autocomplete product search (searches by name and SKU).
Choose link expiry (1 day, 7 days, 30 days, 1 year) with automatic cleanup of expired data.
Redirect customers to the Cart or Checkout page.
Menu placement as a top-level item or under the WooCommerce submenu.
Flexible storage: file-based pseudo-transients or native WordPress transients.
HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage) compatible.

Use Cases

WhatsApp & Instagram sellers — reply to “I want these two” with a single checkout link.
Live chat / support teams — turn a support conversation into a completed sale.
B2B & wholesale — pre-build an order at agreed prices and send it for one-tap confirmation.
Promotions — share a discounted, ready-to-buy cart for a limited-time offer.
In-person & print — print the QR code on a flyer, menu, or packaging insert.

Usage

Access CartLink Generator from the WordPress admin dashboard.
Use the autocomplete search field to find products and add them to the cart configuration.
Adjust quantities, custom prices, or apply a fixed subtotal discount as needed. Use Add fees to attach extra charges (e.g. a tip or service fee) with a name, quantity and price.
Pick how long the link should stay valid. Optionally click Slug (auto) to give the link a readable URL, and Customer & coupon to pre-fill the customer’s details, attach a coupon or add an internal note.
Click Generate Link, then copy it, share it to WhatsApp/Telegram/email, or show the QR code.
Review and manage everything you’ve created from the Recent links table — including whether each link was opened and which order it became.
