These guys are scumbag clowns! Stripe wanted me to re-verify my account details, after being verified with them for years. I provided details and this went on for 2 weeks, with them accusing me of having another Director, despite me providing them with a copy of the company Annual Report. I finally had enough of their over-hyped security and run around, and wanted to delete my account. Turns out you have to delete your account with WooCommerce, and so after 4 days of run around with WooCommerce they cannot even reply to my deletion request. They call their support "Happiness Engineers" - these people are lazy, dishonest crooks, who make it WAY TOO DIFFICULT to delete your account, and do not reply after 4 days! I HATE Woocommerce / Stripe - so useless. Use PayPal or ANYONE ELSE - these guys are clowns!

Woopayment review scammer
Woopayment is the worst platform ever, i have migrated my stores on this platform during Q4. I made many sales but after 1 week woopayment decided to refund all my customers without asking any additionnal info ( I sent all my company info proof), so i lost all money from customers but also all the money from the products I delivered. Now my is in difficult while it was running well for 4 years. BE CAREFUL AND NEVER USE THEIR PLATFORM.

Beware of WooPayments: Lack of Transparency and Misleading Promises
This review is specifically about WooPayments, the payment service offered under WooCommerce. Currently, they are holding $12,000 of our business’s funds with no clear indication of when it will be released. I signed up expecting daily payouts, as advertised, but after one initial payment, everything stopped.
When I reached out for clarification, the customer representative had the audacity to say, "We will decide when to release the money. We don’t disclose either the process or the reason. If you don’t like it, go find a different solution." This blatant disregard for transparency and customer concerns is beyond unprofessional.
Their vague response cited “internal protocols” and directed me to hidden terms buried in their policies—none of which were disclosed upfront during onboarding. For small businesses, cash flow is critical, and having such a large sum withheld without explanation is simply unacceptable.
If you’re considering WooPayments, I strongly advise against it. Their practices could seriously harm your business, especially if you depend on timely payouts. I’m switching to a more reliable provider like PayPal or Square, and I hope this review helps others avoid the same frustration and financial stress.

I ordered from site built on "WOOCOMMERCE"
I ordered from site built on woocommerce never ever gonna buy something from them, and after that I will regularly check the site before buying... do not make mine mistake.
HISTORY:
Should I be worried about more money stolen from my card or not? Shop was percyjackson after browsing i found that the quality is much worse than on aliexpres and also almost nothing arrives (reddit users etc) IT IS NOT AN OFFICIAL SITE AS THEY SAY INSTEAD IT IS A SCAM BUILT ON WOCOMMERCE! I got scammed for 22.83eur, I'm worried if mine card details are safe I already contacted the bank about this issue and im waiting for an response it was like that: I wrote to the support after waiting 30mins (not received order info e-mail, - nothing) after 15 mins i received e-mail from them. There was mine letter but it was sended from their e-mail it was just copy-pasted, also both photos (screenshots, which i took was "glued" to the letter) later I found on their site order tracking link Multiple times I tried entering mine e-mail, but nothing happened. Some time passed by maybe from 1 hour to 1.5hour, I received an e-mail from woocommerce - (it said about mine order that it is beeing processed, but the order number was different, from given first time after payment). So if im correct some thiefts are sitting on a woocommerce site there they had created a website percyjacksonshop.com and they are scamming perople, or maybe even woocommerce are scamming people together? there are also fake reviews on this scam percyjacksonshop site - after I started searching for the info I found some interesting stuff for example on reddit forum.. Do not mess with those guys it is not worth Your time and nerves...

Thanks for reaching out! To provide instant help, below is an answer from our hopefully helpful AI assistant. If you still need help, please reply to this email to reopen your ticket and our team will get back to you.
Hi, thanks for reaching out to Woo Support!
I'm sorry to hear about your experience with the Percy Jackson shop. Unfortunately, WooCommerce.com cannot block or take action against individual sellers or websites using our open-source software. However, I can suggest a few steps you can take to try and resolve this situation:
Contact the Store Owner: If you haven't already, try reaching out to the store owner directly through their website. Look for a contact page or help option.
Contact Your Bank or Credit Card Company: Report the transaction to your bank or credit card company and dispute the charge. They usually have a process for handling such disputes and may open a fraud investigation if necessary.
Contact the Hosting/Domain Company: You can also try contacting the hosting company or domain registrar for the site. This might be more effective if you have already attempted the previous steps and can provide a record of your attempts to resolve the issue.
Regarding your credit card information, it's a good idea to monitor your account for any unauthorized transactions and consider contacting your bank to discuss additional security measures.
I hope that helps! If you have any additional questions or my answer wasn't helpful, please respond to this email.

No idea why there are bad reviews for…
No idea why there are bad reviews for woocommerce. It's been great for our business. We use it to sell online. It's super cheap to run adn flexible, has great SEO and is transaparent. I think some of these reviewers are expecting a Shopify experience but forgetting that this is a self hosted product that costs 1/20th of Shopify.

WORST PLATFORM to sell on
WORST PLATFORM to sell on! Even though I have a valid registered business, they booted me from their platform without a valid reason, and then KEPT the money that MY CUSTOMERS had paid via their interface. FRAUDULENT SCAMMERS! STAY AWAY!

WooCommerce is the greatest Shop System…
WooCommerce is the greatest Shop System for WordPress. They are really pricy and you need a lot of plugins but they are worth it! They are run by the WordPress founders.
