Woocommerce Discounts: Checkout and revenue assurance

Woocommerce Discounts matters only if the evidence supports a paid workflow around protecting checkout revenue and order operations, not a list of isolated fixes. The current commercial thesis is: Stores lose money when checkout, payment, shipping, or order flows fail silently. The entry wedge is to monitor checkout-critical paths, flag revenue-impacting issues, and produce fix-ready diagnostics.

Monetization

Freemium baseline check with paid checkout monitors, test orders, alerting, agency reports, and integrations with payment or helpdesk tools.
