Pinterest for WooCommerce

Description

Pinterest gives people their next great idea. Part collection, part marketplace, it’s a one-stop shop for millions of pinners to source inspiration, new products and new possibilities. It’s like a visual search engine, guiding people to ideas, inspiration and products that are just right for them.

With the Pinterest for WooCommerce extension, you can put your products in front of Pinterest users who are already looking for ideas and things to buy. Connect your WooCommerce store to your Pinterest business account directly in the WooCommerce app. Your entire catalog will become browsable on Pinterest in just a few clicks.

Pinterest Ads

Get started with Pinterest Ads with $125 free ad credit* from Pinterest when you set up Pinterest for WooCommerce and spend $15 on ads! Pinterest terms and conditions apply.

Open-minded and undecided

People on Pinterest are eager for new ideas, which means they want to hear from you. In fact, 97% of top Pinterest searches are unbranded. Content from brands doesn’t interrupt on Pinterest—it inspires. Shopping features are built into both the organic Pinner experience, and our ad solutions.

We’ll also automatically set up your Pinterest tag, and a shop tab on your Pinterest profile.

Build brand loyalty

People on Pinterest are nearly 50% more likely to be open to new brands while shopping. And once they find a brand they like, they’re more loyal.

Become their new favorite with merchant solutions like the Shop Tab and the Verified Merchants Program. Shop Tab on profile: Consider this your always-on Pinterest shop. It’s automatically created when you upload your catalog so people can shop right from your profile.

Verified Merchant Program

One of the most buggy plugins on WordPress

abecedairesunion November 21, 2024 3 replies

It has worked great for few months, but now on some websites, the new version dosen’t stop disconnecting my Pinterest Tag !!! And it has been few weeks now that there is this problem !!! In consequence this has made me lose money and optimization on my campaign ! If you find a better plugin in another place, please use this another plugin and not this one !

I don’t recommend

Very buggy unfortunately. Product pins did not show correctly, tag installation did not work and worst of all, the whole data source got deleted anytime a large amount of products were updated in the shop which really hurt my reach on Pinterest.

Bug: Plugin disconnects from pinterest by itself after a few hours

mehranattari October 20, 2024 2 replies

I am facing a bug that makes it useless. When I connect it to my Pinterest account, verify my domain, and connect and sync the catalog, it disconnects itself from Pinterest after a few hours. I connected it several times, but the bug is not going away. I am also getting the following confliction warning The following installed plugin(s) can potentially cause problems with Rich Pins: RankMath SEO. Remove conflicting plugins or manage Rich Pins settings. I don’t think it is a problem with the rankmath. OR let me know if I need to change any of its settings. Please have a look and let me know on how to fix it. The 1 star is for getting your attention. I’ll update it after response. Please don’t mind. Best

This plugin’s rating doesn’t lie

It’s pretty useless…after clicking “get started” then “connect” it was forever stuck on a loading screen. Even left it in a separate window loading for hours while doing other stuff and still Nothing. Think this plugin has some kind of bug or bugs that the developers clearly aren’t fixing.

Complete waste of time

espieartist September 20, 2024 1 reply

With a lot of mucking about, no instructions how to use, I found some instructions online, went through the whole set up process only to be told my website has issues to do with being granted a merchant account. Happy to take money though for advertising. My website already is setup correctly, and being given a list of issues that might be doesn’t help me or anyone else easily find the issue. Total garbage
