Ambikly is a complete store, not a framework you have to assemble. Install it, run the setup wizard, and you have products, a cart, checkout, orders, coupons, shipping, tax, and customer accounts working the same day — no separate payments extension, no separate “core” plugin to hunt down first.

What you can sell

Physical products — simple or with variants, each variant carrying its own price, image, SKU and stock
Digital downloads — token-protected file delivery with per-product download limits and expiry, plus optional pricing plans so one file can be sold as several licenses
B2B / wholesale — company accounts with net-terms billing (Net 7, 15, 30, 60 or 90), a credit limit, a tier discount, and several buyers sharing one account
Subscriptions, gift cards, bundles and more — available when you need them through Ambikly Pro, not a rewrite

A checkout that’s actually finished

Cart, checkout, and a customer account area — orders, downloads, saved addresses, profile — all included, not a separate purchase
Stripe and PayPal built in, with webhook signatures verified server-side before any order is marked paid — plus Cash on Delivery, Direct Bank Transfer and Check Payments for offline sales
Shipping zones with flat rate, free shipping and local pickup
Tax rates by country, state, postcode or city — inclusive or exclusive, with compound rates and per-class rules
Coupons with percentage or fixed discounts, minimum and maximum spend, total and per-customer usage limits, product include/exclude rules, customer-email restrictions, and free shipping

Run the back office from one screen

Orders with line items, notes, a guarded status workflow, partial and full refunds, and printable invoices and packing slips
Products, categories, customers, companies and coupons, each with search, filtering, sorting and bulk actions
Reports — sales by day, order-status breakdown, best sellers, and CSV export
Product reviews with moderation
Transactional emails with editable subjects and bodies, smart tags like {{order_number}}, a one-click test send, and a preview that opens in a new tab
Outgoing webhooks to Zapier, Slack or any HTTPS endpoint, HMAC-signed with automatic retries and a delivery log
CSV import and export for products and orders
Dark mode and a responsive admin that works on a phone

Built for developers, not around them

A REST API under /wp-json/ambikly/v1/, authenticated the same way as any other WordPress endpoint — no separate API key system to manage
Eight block-editor blocks — Product Grid, Featured Product, Add to Cart, Mini Cart, Cart, Checkout, Customer Account and Product Reviews — each with its own settings panel and a live preview in the editor, plus shortcodes for classic themes and page builders
WP-CLI commands for database upgrades, CSV exports and recomputing customer totals
A real PHP hook/filter system through checkout, orders and pricing — extend behavior without forking core files
Your data lives in your own database tables, in your own WordPress install — export it, query it, or move hosts whenever you want

Zero transaction fees, ever

Ambikly never takes a cut of your sales. You keep 100% of what you charge, minus only whatever your payment processor itself charges. There is no hosted-checkout tier and no fee schedule that changes as you grow.

Need more? 35 add-ons, one license

Ambikly Pro is a single add-on pack: one license activates every add-on below, with no per-feature upsells. All 35 are already listed inside this free plugin under Ambikly Addons, so you can see exactly what the pack contains before you buy — and each one runs inside the screens you already use, rather than adding a second plugin to configure.
