Add a Buy Now button that sends shoppers straight to checkout and skips the cart. Simple and variable products, sticky mobile button, no paywall.

== Description ==

ReadyGo Buy Now Button adds a "Buy Now" button to your WooCommerce products that takes shoppers directly to checkout, skipping the cart step. Fewer clicks means fewer abandoned carts and more completed orders, especially for single-item and impulse purchases.

Unlike most Buy Now plugins, the useful options are free, not locked behind a Pro upgrade.

**What you get, free**

* Buy Now button on product pages that jumps straight to checkout (or the cart, your choice).
* Works with **simple and variable products** (the button waits until a variation is chosen).
* **Replace** the Add to Cart button, or show Buy Now **beside** it.
* **Buy only this item** option that empties the cart first, so a Buy Now is a clean single-item purchase.
* **Sticky mobile button** that stays in view as shoppers scroll.
* Optional Buy Now button on **shop and category pages** for simple products.
* **Per-product control**: hide the button on any product from its edit screen.
* Set the **button text and colors** to match your theme.

Lightweight and self-hosted. It loads assets only on product, shop and category pages, and nothing leaves your store.

== Installation ==

1. Upload the plugin to /wp-content/plugins/, or install it from the Plugins screen.
2. Activate it.
3. Go to WooCommerce > Buy Now Button to set the text, placement and behavior.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Does it work with variable products? =
Yes. On a variable product the Buy Now button stays disabled until a valid variation is selected, then it adds that variation and goes to checkout.

= Can I replace the Add to Cart button entirely? =
Yes. Choose "Replace Add to Cart" in the settings, or keep both buttons side by side.

= Does Buy Now empty the current cart? =
Only if you enable "Buy only this item". Otherwise the product is added to the existing cart and the shopper is sent to checkout.

= Can I hide it on certain products? =
Yes. Each product has a "Hide Buy Now button" checkbox under Product data > General.

= Will it slow my site down? =
No. The small CSS and JS load only on product, shop and category pages.
