In our previous posts, we had discussed different plugins to which our Booking & Appointment Plugin for WooCommerce was made compatible with. Today we shall focus on an additional plugin which has been added to the list and it is called the WooCommerce One Page Checkout plugin. This compatibility helps to complete the entire online purchase process along with adding booking details on a single page without having to switch to different sections of the website.

Hence the functionality of One Page Checkout plugin and Booking & Appointment Plugin for WooCommerce together helps to reduce time and energy involved in the online booking process, thus making the customers have a wonderful online shopping experience.
