WooCommerce Care for Online Stores
Fast checkout, payment gateways that do not break, PCI-aware security, and a real human when the store is on fire. Bilingual support, from $99/mo.
For a store, every minute the site is broken is money walking out the door.
A checkout that fails silently, a plugin update that kills your payment gateway, or a site that buckles on Black Friday all cost you real sales. We watch the parts that actually take your money when they break, and we update on staging, never on your live store.
Checkout breaks and you find out from a customer.
We monitor the checkout itself, not just whether the site is up, so a broken buying path does not go unnoticed.
A plugin update kills your payment gateway.
We test updates on a staging copy first, so an update never takes your live checkout down.
Black Friday brings the site down.
We size hosting and caching for your peak, not your average, so your busiest day is not your worst day.
PCI compliance is not optional.
We keep your checkout configured on the right side of PCI SAQ A so card data never touches your server.
What We Do on a WooCommerce Site
All of it protects the one thing that matters most on a store: a checkout that works and keeps working.
- Payment gateway health. Stripe, PayPal, Square, Authorize.net, and Klarna, tested end to end through a full checkout.
- Caching done right for stores. Cart and checkout bypass the cache. Get that wrong and customers see each other’s carts. We get it right.
- Backups that fit a store. Daily off-site backups, with more frequent database snapshots during peak season so an order is never lost.
- PCI-aware security. Configured to keep you in PCI SAQ A scope, with daily scanning for card-skimmer injections.
- Safe updates. Every plugin and theme update tested on staging before it touches your live store.
Subscription Stores, Multi-Currency, Multi-Vendor, and B2B
Whether you run a subscription box, a multi-currency catalog, a multi-vendor marketplace, or a B2B store, the failure points are the same: checkout, payments, and database load. We keep your security tight and your hosting ready for peak. If your store is already compromised, our hacked site rescue cleans it fast.

Card Skimmer Detection and PCI DSS 4.0 Compliance
A Magecart or card skimmer attack injects a script into your checkout page that silently copies card numbers as customers type. They arrive through compromised plugins, theme file edits, or supply-chain attacks on JavaScript libraries your site loads. Payment processors are now clawing back chargeback losses from stores that cannot show they ran checkout script audits.
PCI DSS 4.0, effective in 2024, requires that every script on a checkout page be documented, justified, and authorized. We audit your checkout page script inventory after every plugin update and flag any undeclared script before it becomes a compliance finding.
- Checkout script inventory: every JS resource on cart and checkout pages documented and verified after updates.
- File integrity monitoring: changes to theme files and active plugins flagged within 24 hours.
- Plugin vetting: new plugins reviewed for checkout-page script injection before installation.
- PCI SAQ A eligibility: if you use a hosted gateway like Stripe or PayPal, we keep your setup in the simpler self-assessment scope.
- Incident response: if a skimmer is found, immediate isolation, clean restore from verified backup, and payment processor notification.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is WooCommerce PCI compliant?
WooCommerce can be run in a PCI-compliant way. The key is keeping card data off your server by using a hosted payment gateway like Stripe or PayPal, which keeps most stores in the simpler PCI SAQ A scope. We configure and maintain it that way.
Why does my checkout keep breaking after plugin updates?
Because the updates are being applied straight to your live store. A plugin conflict then hits real customers. We test every update on a staging copy first, so breakage is caught before it ever reaches your buyers.
Can you migrate my store without losing orders?
Yes. We migrate WooCommerce stores with the full order history, customers, and products intact, on a staging copy first, then cut over with no lost data and minimal downtime.
What happens if my site goes down on Black Friday?
Ideally it does not, because we size your hosting and caching for the peak ahead of time. If something does go wrong, you reach a real person fast, not a ticket queue, during the window that matters most.
How much does WooCommerce maintenance cost?
Our care plans start at $99/mo and go to $299/mo for priority, full-service support. Stores usually fit the middle or top tier because checkout and database upkeep need more attention than a brochure site.
What is PCI DSS 4.0 and how does it affect WooCommerce stores?
PCI DSS 4.0 went into effect in 2024 and added new requirements for checkout page scripts. Requirement 6.4.3 means every script loaded on a checkout page must be documented, authorized, and justified. A plugin that adds an undeclared script to your cart or thank-you page is a compliance violation. We audit your checkout page script inventory and keep it current after every plugin update.
What is a Magecart or card skimmer attack?
A Magecart attack injects a malicious script into your checkout page that silently copies card numbers as customers type. They arrive through compromised plugins, theme edits, or third-party JavaScript libraries your site loads. Payment processors have started clawing back chargeback losses from stores that cannot show they ran regular checkout script scans. We check your checkout pages for rogue scripts as part of our security monitoring.
