Stockaro Connect — Barcode Scanner for WooCommerce
Stockaro Connect — Barcode Scanner for WooCommerce is one free plugin that does two jobs: it turns your phone, tablet, or handheld scanner into a WooCommerce stock terminal, and (optionally) it connects your shop to the Stockaro app so shelf and eshop stay in sync. Search any product or variation by barcode or SKU, add or remove stock, log every change with a note, and undo mistakes, all from a single screen. The plugin is 100% free with no license, no account, and no locked features.
Everything below works out of the box for free:
- Barcode / SKU lookup for products and variations.
- One-tap stock actions — add, remove, set-to-zero, or mark out-of-stock.
- Camera scanner with flashlight/torch toggle for low light (where supported).
- Hardware scanner mode — scans from a Bluetooth/USB scanner auto-submit, no Enter key needed.
- Rapid (continuous) mode — pick Add or Remove and each scan applies ±1 automatically for hands-free counting, with a live session list and per-item undo.
- Full audit log with date, user, action, and notes — plus per-row undo inside a 15-minute window.
- CSV export of the stock log with filters (date range, action, user, product, barcode).
- Dashboard stats and a low-stock product list.
- Weekly stock report — an at-a-glance page (out-of-stock, running low, total retail stock value) plus an optional weekly email, computed locally from your WooCommerce data.
The camera scanner decodes barcodes locally in your browser (using the bundled open-source ZXing engine). No image or scan is ever uploaded anywhere.
Grow with the Stockaro app (optional). The scanner here lives inside WordPress. The Stockaro app does all of this and works from your phone, tablet, and desktop, with cloud sync so the same inventory is everywhere. It is free up to 30 products, and the Business plan adds two-way sync and order management. If you never need the app, ignore it. The scanner is fully free either way.
Connect your shop to Stockaro (optional). Turn on the built-in Stockaro bridge (a dedicated stockaro/v1 REST namespace) to pair this shop with the Stockaro app, so your eshop and the app stay in sync even on hosts where the generic WooCommerce API is blocked. Pairing shows an endpoint and a one-time code as plain text; the code is never sent to any external service.
External services
This plugin is fully functional on its own and does not send your data anywhere by default. Two optional integrations with Stockaro (a service operated by Nexus Digital Studio) are described below, so you know exactly what happens if you choose to use them.
1. The optional “Connect with Stockaro” bridge (stockaro/v1 REST API)
If, and only if, you open Stockaro → Σύνδεση με Stockaro, turn the bridge on, and pair your shop, the plugin registers REST endpoints on your own site that the Stockaro app can call. When paired, the Stockaro app (running on your phone, tablet, or desktop) connects to your site to read and update stock data: product name, SKU, price, stock quantity, and stock status. Your site does not automatically push data out. Data is exchanged only in response to authenticated requests from the Stockaro app you paired, using a token you generated. You can unpair or disable the bridge at any time from the same screen, which stops all access.

If you never enable the bridge, no product or stock data leaves your site through it.
2. Informational links to stockaro.gr
The admin screens contain links to https://stockaro.gr that introduce the Stockaro app. These links carry basic campaign tags (utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign) so we can see that a visit came from the plugin. No request is made and no data is transmitted unless you actively click a link and open the page in your browser.
