FFL-compliant checkout for WooCommerce.

No. Standard setup does not require a developer. The plugin installs from the WordPress plugin directory; configuration is a Google Maps API key and a few WooCommerce settings. Stores with custom checkout work or unusual catalogs may want a developer involved — the typical install does not.

The Google Maps API key powers the dealer locator inside checkout — the map and dealer list customers see when picking an FFL. You generate the key in the Google Cloud console under your own Google account; the key stays in your account and is referenced by AutomaticFFL.

Two things, both included. The full FFL database covers every active FFL in the country, synced daily from ATF records — your customers can ship to any of them. The FFL certificate network is a subset of thousands of those dealers for whom we already have scanned FFL certificates on file. When a customer picks an in-network dealer, certificate and license details can travel with the order. No emails or faxes to chase.

Yes. AutomaticFFL supports both classic WooCommerce checkout and the block-based checkout. You don’t have to migrate from one to the other to get dealer selection in checkout.

When order attachment is enabled, AutomaticFFL can record the selected dealer’s FFL license number, expiration date, EZ Check link, and certificate link on the order. That gives the team fulfilling the order the dealer details they need without searching through checkout session data.

WooCommerce does not natively support shipping a single order to two destinations, so we built Save For Later. When a customer’s cart contains both FFL-required items and standard products, AutomaticFFL groups the cart automatically. The customer checks out one group first — say, the firearms going to their selected FFL dealer — and is then presented with the second group as a follow-on checkout. The flow works in either direction (firearms first or regular items first), and customers never have to rebuild a cart or manage two separate sessions manually.

Ammo is handled at the product level and the state level. You can flag ammo separately from firearms, and the workflow supports per-state ammo rules so restricted-state ammo can route to an FFL where required.

For a standard catalog: install, drop in the Google Maps API key, mark FFL-required products, and run a test checkout. From install to test order in one sitting is the realistic expectation.

The 30-day trial gives you the full WooCommerce integration to evaluate. After the trial, the integration moves onto the standard AutomaticFFL plan. No credit card is required to start the trial.
