WC Serial Numbers Pro Introduction

Product Overview

WC Serial Numbers Pro is a license and serial number management plugin for WooCommerce. It automatically sends keys to users upon order completion and provides a REST API for key validation, activation, and de-activation within your app or software; it is also compatible with WooCommerce Subscriptions, allowing for automatic issuance of renewals or extension of licenses. Support for variant products and multiple usage scenarios (digital products, software, game keys, gift cards/recharge codes, physical product serial numbers, etc.). The plugin has built-in Generator Rules/auto-generation, CSV/TXT import/export, low-stock alerts, reports and My Account key display, and database encryption for keys to enhance security.

Key Features

• Autocode and Display: The key will be written to the order and displayed in the email / "My Account" after the order is completed, and the display fields can be customized.
• REST API activation/authentication: Provide endpoints and forms/short codes for easy validation, activation, deactivation and version checking within the software.
• subscription-compatible: Used in configuration with WooCommerce Subscriptions to support the issuance or extension of licenses by renewal policy.
• Generator Rules and Automatic Generation: The Pro version supports batch key generation by rule, or using an automatic random generation source.
• Batch import/export: Supports CSV/TXT import; export can select fields, filter by order/product.
• Low Stock Alerts and Reports: Set up threshold email alerts to view key usage and inventory reports.
• Secure encrypted storage: Keys are stored in an encrypted manner to reduce the risk of leakage.

Target audience and usage scenarios
