WC Email Verify Lite: Free Email Verification for WooCommerce (No API Required)

# WC Email Verify Lite: Free Email Verification for WooCommerce (No API Required) Fake emails on WooCommerce registrations are a headache. They pollute your customer list, mess with email marketing, and create ghost accounts that never convert. So we built **WC Email Verify Lite** — a free, zero-dependency email verification plugin for WooCommerce that uses native WordPress email. No SaaS, no API keys, no monthly fees. ## What it does - Sends a **verification email** immediately after WooCommerce account registration - **Blocks login** until the customer clicks the verification link - Uses native wp_mail() — works with whatever email setup you already have - Secure token-based verification (hashed, not stored in plain text) - Zero configuration required — activate and it works ## Why this matters WooCommerce has no built-in email verification. Anyone can register with fake@whatever.com and start browsing your store, adding to cart, and cluttering your user database. The existing solutions all have the same problem: they require paid API keys from email verification SaaS providers or they bundle verification into bloated all-in-one login plugins with 20 features you don't need. WPFactory called email verification a vital feature that is missing in WooCommerce. WC Email Verify Lite fills that gap with under 200 lines of PHP and zero external dependencies. ## How it works 1. Customer registers on your WooCommerce store 2. Plugin sends a verification email with a unique, hashed token link 3. Customer clicks the link and email is marked as verified 4. Until verified, login attempts show a clear please verify your email message No settings page, no configuration, no upsell nag screens. ## Free download - Download: https://tinyship.ai/static/downloads/wc-email-verify-lite-1.0.0.zip - GitHub: https://github.com/dalbello/wc-email-verify-lite If you run a WooCommerce store and you are tired of fake registrations, this is the simplest fix available.
