**Thanks for buying WhopForWoo.** Your licence key and the plugin download are on Whop, not in an e-mail: open **whop.com → Bakipy** (left sidebar) **→ Software**. Copy the key, download the zip, then follow the steps below. It takes about five minutes.

## 1. Get your licence key and the plugin

1. Log in to [whop.com](https://whop.com) with the e-mail you used at checkout.
2. In the left sidebar, select **Bakipy**, the store WhopForWoo is sold from.
3. Open **Software**.
4. Under **Your license keys**, select **Copy**. The key looks like `B-XXXXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXX`.
5. Under **Downloads**, select **Download** next to WhopForWoo. Keep the file zipped.

## 2. Install the plugin

1. In WordPress, go to **Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin**.
2. Choose the `whopforwoo.zip` file, select **Install Now**, then **Activate**.

WhopForWoo needs WordPress 6.0+, WooCommerce 7.0+ and PHP 7.4+.

## 3. Activate your licence

1. Go to **WooCommerce → WhopForWoo → License**.
2. Paste your key and select **Activate**.

Without an active licence the plugin only runs in test mode. Updates then arrive in the normal WordPress updates screen.

## 4. Connect Whop and take a test order

1. Paste your Whop **API key** and **Account ID** in **WooCommerce → Settings → Payments → Whop**. See [where to find your Whop API key](https://whopforwoo.com/docs/whop-api-key).
2. Copy the webhook URL shown on that page into Whop and subscribe to `payment.succeeded`. See [Whop webhooks](https://whopforwoo.com/docs/whop-webhooks).
3. Turn on [sandbox mode](https://whopforwoo.com/docs/whop-sandbox), place a test order, then switch to live.

Exclude the checkout page from page caching: a cached checkout stops the payment form from loading.

## FAQ

### Where is my WhopForWoo licence key?

On Whop. Open whop.com, select Bakipy in the left sidebar (the store you bought from), then Software. Your key starts with B- and sits under Your license keys, with a Copy button.

### Where do I download the plugin?

On the same Software page, under Downloads: select Download next to WhopForWoo. You get a zip file to upload in WordPress, do not unzip it.

### My key says it is already used on another site.

Open WooCommerce → WhopForWoo → License on the old site and deactivate it, then activate it on the new one. Your plan sets how many sites can be active at once.

### I can't find the purchase on Whop.

Log in to Whop with the e-mail you used at checkout. Still nothing? Email support@whopforwoo.com with that e-mail and we'll send the key.
