Do I need to install a plugin on my WordPress site?

No. Bookbag connects using the built-in WooCommerce REST API. You just generate API credentials in WooCommerce → Settings → Advanced → REST API and enter them in Bookbag.

Which WooCommerce version does Bookbag support?

Bookbag supports WooCommerce 3.5 and above, which covers the vast majority of active installations. The integration uses stable v3 REST API endpoints.

Can Bookbag update order statuses in WooCommerce?

Yes. Within the action rules you configure, Bookbag can update order statuses (e.g., mark as refunded) and add order notes that appear in your WooCommerce admin.

How does Bookbag identify which order a customer is asking about?

Bookbag asks the customer for their order number or email address, then queries WooCommerce with those details to retrieve the correct order before responding.

Does WooCommerce work with Bookbag's email channel?

Yes. Bookbag can handle WooCommerce support requests arriving via email just as it does via chat — looking up order data and replying with accurate information directly in the email thread.
