Akkedli Connector bridges your WooCommerce store with the
Akkedli platform to
eliminate fake orders and drastically cut return-to-sender rates — especially for Cash-on-Delivery (COD) merchants.
The Problem
COD stores lose thousands in fake orders, wrong addresses, and customers who deny placing orders. Manual phone verification is slow, expensive, and doesn't scale.
The Akkedli Solution
- A customer places an order on your store
- Akkedli instantly sends a WhatsApp message asking the customer to confirm
- The customer taps Confirm or Cancel — takes 5 seconds
- Your WooCommerce order status updates automatically
No more calling customers. No more shipping to fake addresses.
Ship only confirmed orders.
Key Features
- Automated WhatsApp Verification — Customers confirm orders instantly via WhatsApp
- Reduce Fake Orders — Stop shipping to unverified customers and save on returns
- Custom Order Status — New "Confirmed by Akkedli" status to easily track verified orders
- One-Click Setup — Connect your store in seconds from the Akkedli Dashboard
- HPOS Compatible — Full support for WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage
- Flexible Triggers — Choose to verify orders on "Pending" or "Processing" status
- Secure REST API — Receive real-time status updates from Akkedli with API key authentication
- Order Notes — All verification events are logged as WooCommerce order notes

Third-Party Services
This plugin connects to the
Akkedli service to process order verifications:
When an order is placed, the following data is sent to Akkedli:
- Order details (ID, total, currency, items, shipping method)
- Customer contact information (phone number, name, address)
- Store domain and timestamp
This data is transmitted securely over HTTPS and is used solely for order verification.
