What This Plugin Does? #

Buy Now for WooCommerce allows you to add a powerful Buy Now button to both single product pages and shop or catalog pages. This lets customers skip the cart entirely and proceed directly to the checkout page, reducing friction and speeding up the buying process. The button can be displayed before, after, or as a replacement for the Add to Cart button, and it is fully customizable through WooCommerce settings to match your store’s design and conversion goals.
