ALP PRO

ALP PRO extends WooCommerce Local Pickup with tools for stores handling collection across locations, products, and order types. Customers pick pickup at checkout; staff prepare the order, mark it Ready for Pickup, and mark it Picked Up after collection. Pickup settings depend on the locations and products you configure.

How do pickup choices vary by location and product?

Add unlimited pickup locations, each with its own address, contact details, instructions, business hours by day, and holiday blackout dates. Per-location inventory controls let you offer pickup where an entry is in stock. You can assign products or categories to selected locations, set location-specific pickup fees or discounts, and show pickup availability before checkout.

Customers can select a location from an interactive map with a pin for each pickup point. The map supports Google’s “Use My Location” option and can sort locations by distance from the customer’s address.

What if an order needs both pickup and shipping?

One order can include entries for in-shop pickup and items for shipping. You can also assign individual pickup items to different locations, with a separate appointment for each location. For products or categories that should only be collected in person, you can require local pickup.

How do scheduled and curbside collections work?

Customers can choose a pickup date and time slot during checkout. Configure 15, 30, or 60-minute slots for each location. Curbside pickup can be enabled by location; clients who choose it enter their vehicle make, colour, and licence plate, then tap “I’ve Arrived” when they arrive. Staff receive the arrival notification in real time.

Each pickup order generates a unique QR code in the customer’s order confirmation. Staff can scan it with the mobile admin scanner on a phone to confirm handoff. The audit trail entries the timestamp, staff member, and location.

What can customers and staff do after checkout?

Customers can use a secure link to change their pickup location or appointment time after ordering. Staff can manage pickups from the fulfillment dashboard, including the Today’s Pickup Board for orders scheduled that day.

Pickup status notifications can be sent automatically by email and SMS at each step. Ready for Pickup emails can come from the location handling the order and include its details. Custom email templates let you adjust pickup email styling and layout.

WooCommerce support and setup

ALP PRO supports WooCommerce Block Checkout and High-Performance Order Storage. Listed compatibility options include Kadence WooMail, YayMail, WP HTML Mail, SMS for WooCommerce, and WPML.

To configure the process, set up the WooCommerce Local Pickup method, then add locations, addresses, hours, instructions, and contact details. Choose which locations serve each product or category, set inventory and pickup rules, and enable the options your store uses, such as appointments, curbside collection, or QR handoff. Review email and SMS settings, personalize templates as needed, and test checkout through collection.
