Collect WooCommerce files after purchase
A customer can be ready to pay before their final artwork is ready. Collecting files after payment lets the order proceed while keeping the remaining work attached to that order.
A useful post-payment workflow
- Define the artwork and instructions required for the product.
- After confirmed payment, send the customer a private checklist.
- Allow drafts so they can return with the final file.
- Review each submission and request specific corrections.
- Release the approved information to production.
OrderReady implements this workflow for WooCommerce. The free plugin includes private links, drafts, encrypted file collection and individual reviews. Pro adds automatic follow-up and production packages.
When to use another approach
If the file determines the price or must be inspected before accepting payment, collect it before checkout or use a quote workflow. OrderReady’s post-payment checklist is intended for orders whose commercial details are already agreed.
