Context
Orders placed in the store had to reach a central CRM without anyone re-typing them.
E-commerce — 2021
Online store + admin
A self-serve online store, built in 2021 on WooCommerce: catalog and checkout, custom Stripe payment processing, a direct link to a central CRM, and the admin flow behind it.
What I built
The storefront on WooCommerce — catalog, cart and checkout. Payments through custom Stripe processing written for this store, not a stock checkout. A link from the store to the central CRM, so a paid order is created there automatically. And an admin-side order flow for the store’s operators.
Architecture
WooCommerce on WordPress owns the catalog, cart and orders — what a platform already does well did not need rewriting. Stripe handles the money. The custom code sits where the platform stops: payment, the CRM link and the admin flow. What had to be true: an order counts as paid only after Stripe confirms the payment on the server, never on the browser’s say-so; the CRM record is created from that confirmed order, once, with no person in the loop; and a hiccup on the CRM side must never cost a paid order.
Outcome
The store went live in 2021 with custom Stripe payments and the CRM link in place. Orders reach the CRM with zero manual entry.
