Wapu Auth – Google Social Login for WordPress & WooCommerce

Beschreibung

Wapu Auth is a free Google Social Login plugin for WordPress and WooCommerce. It lets your visitors register and login to your site using their Google account instead of forcing them to fill out the default registration form. No passwords to remember, no validation emails to wait for — just one click and they’re in.

Whether you run a WooCommerce store, a membership site, or any WordPress site, Wapu Auth makes Google login and registration instant, secure, and completely free — including WooCommerce integration.

Wapu Auth Pro is coming soon with additional social login providers (Facebook, Apple, GitHub), advanced analytics exports, and priority support.

Free WooCommerce Social Login — No Pro Upgrade Required

Most social login plugins lock WooCommerce compatibility behind a paid plan. Wapu Auth includes free WooCommerce social login out of the box. The Google login button is automatically placed on your WooCommerce login page, registration page, and checkout form — zero configuration needed.

Store owners: let customers register and login at checkout with their Google account. Fewer abandoned carts. More completed purchases.

Who Uses Wapu Auth?

WooCommerce store owners looking to reduce cart abandonment by adding Google login to the checkout page — free, without a Pro plan.

Membership site owners who want fast, trusted social login and registration using Google accounts.

WordPress developers and agencies who need a clean, standards-compliant Google OAuth plugin for client sites.

Users switching from Nextend Social Login who need free WooCommerce social login integration without paying for a Pro addon.

How Google Social Login Works

1. Visitor clicks the Google login button on your site
2. Google authenticates the user via secure OAuth 2.0
3. Wapu Auth creates or matches their WordPress account by email
4. User is logged in — done. The whole process takes under 3 seconds.

Existing users who already have a WordPress account with the same Google email address are automatically matched and logged in — no duplicate accounts, no confusion.
