MCat WooCommerce Tools (formerly MCat Source) is an all-in-one, lightweight plugin designed to increase your conversion rate, streamline store management, and provide invaluable insights into your marketing performance.
Everything you need is integrated into one fast, completely free WooCommerce plugin.
Key Features & Modules
Cart Upsell & Order Bump: Increase your Average Order Value (AOV) by recommending complementary products directly in the cart or checkout. Includes smart logic (hides if the product is already in the cart) and full support for product variations with direct add-to-cart functionality.
Auto Emails: Send automated follow-up emails to customers a specific number of days after they place an order. Perfect for updating customers about production times. Includes smart anti-spam protections.
Order Source Tracking (“Where did you hear about us?”): Stop guessing which ads work. Adds a discreet question at checkout or the thank-you page. Includes a statistics dashboard and CSV export (compatible with PixelYourSite and UTMs).
Size Recommendation Calculator (Fashion Module): Running an apparel or sports store? Add a dynamic size calculator to product pages. Customers enter their weight and height, and the system recommends the perfect size. Configurable per category.
Free Shipping Bar: Motivate customers to buy more. A fully customizable progress bar in the cart or checkout shows how much is left to qualify for free shipping.
Quick Emails in Orders: Save time on customer service. Configure up to 5 custom buttons in the order edit sidebar to send tracking links or status updates with a single click.
Store Management Tools (Admin Only): Speeds up daily work by displaying hidden data directly on the shop frontend (visible only to logged-in staff): total sold quantities, variation stock levels, top 5 best-selling variants, and SKUs.
Products Per Page Selector: Allow customers to choose how many products they want to view per page before using pagination.

Enhancement: Emails sent by the plugin (Auto Emails and Quick Emails) now automatically use the store’s “From Name” and “From Email” settings configured in WooCommerce, rather than defaulting to “WordPress”.
9.4.7
New Feature: Added background CRON engine for Auto Emails. Automatically checks for processing orders twice a day and dispatches configured emails with intelligent anti-spam and retroactive skipping mechanisms.
9.4.6
Tweak: Improved the “Test Email” feature in Auto Emails to pull live content directly from input fields, allowing tests without saving or enabling the rule first.
Tweak: Added fallback to prevent mail server errors when attempting to test an empty email body.
