Please note: this plugin uses the official AliExpress Dropshipping API, so you need to connect your account to place and synchronize orders. You can also use the plugin with your own WordPress theme to sell products. The plugin requires PHP version 8.0 or higher, and it runs very fast thanks to the performance improvements of the latest PHP core.
Typically, this plugin is used in two main scenarios:
Dropshipping Scenario
AliNext works as a complete WooCommerce dropshipping plugin for WordPress, letting you import AliExpress goods directly into your store. You can set markups, sell items, and receive customer payments in your account.
When an order is placed, the plugin automatically submits it to AliExpress with the buyer’s shipping address, so the supplier sends the package directly to your customer. Your profit comes from the difference between the original cost and the retail price you set in your store.
Affiliate Scenario
AliNext can also be used as an affiliate plugin, available in the premium version. This mode connects you to the official AliExpress affiliate program. Instead of processing payments yourself, you simply list affiliate items in your WooCommerce store, each with your unique affiliate link.
When a visitor clicks an affiliate link and completes the purchase on AliExpress, you earn a commission credited to your affiliate account. In this model, the platform handles all payments and fulfillment, while you generate revenue through referrals.

Enhance AliNext with Chrome Extension
You can also enhance AliNext with our free browser extension, available from the official Google Chrome Web Store. Once installed in your browser, this companion app allows you to browse the ali express dropshipping portal and retrieve items directly from the catalog into your WooCommerce store where AliNext is active.
The extension can even highlight items that support specific shipping methods, helping you quickly identify the best options for your shop. This makes product import faster and more efficient, especially when you want to filter by delivery options.
Please note that using the Chrome add-on is optional. You can still load goods through the built‑in AliNext search without installing the extension at all.
Smooth Migration from Other Dropshipping Tools
If you are currently using another solution and want not only to load new items but also to transfer your existing catalog under AliNext management, our premium version can help. In most cases, we provide a converter that allows you to migrate listings seamlessly. Please contact our support center in advance to confirm the availability of a converter for your specific product setup.
