About
Add a required terms and conditions checkbox to WooCommerce checkout, get explicit consent to your policies, and record every acceptance.
What It Does
This plugin adds an extra terms and conditions checkbox to the WooCommerce checkout page, letting store owners require customers to confirm acceptance of store-specific policies before completing a purchase. It complements the standard WooCommerce terms checkbox by allowing site-specific policies, such as refund rules, privacy notices, or age restrictions, to be agreed to individually. The result is clearer legal consent and better documentation of what buyers agreed to at the point of sale.
Who It's For
This plugin suits WooCommerce stores that need separate, explicit consent for policies beyond the default terms page, such as retailers in regulated industries, subscription box businesses, or stores selling age-restricted or high-risk products. It is also useful for international merchants that must capture policy acceptance for region-specific rules like GDPR acknowledgements or customs declarations. If your store has a single, simple terms page, the built-in WooCommerce checkbox is probably enough.
Who Should Skip It
Stores that only need a single, basic terms and conditions agreement should skip this plugin and stick with the free, native WooCommerce checkout terms field. Anyone needing broader legal compliance tooling, such as cookie consent management or full privacy policy automation, will also find dedicated plugins more capable.
The Bottom Line
Additional Terms for WooCommerce is a focused, well-maintained utility that does one job, adding extra policy checkboxes at checkout, and it does that job with current WordPress compatibility and clean code. The trade-offs are a small install base, a thin rating sample, and zero visible support history, which means you are betting on a single developer. It is a reasonable pick if you genuinely need custom policy consent and do not want a heavier compliance suite.
