How to Customize WooCommerce Checkout Page

The checkout page is the last step for businesses to turn their potential customers into buyers and plays an important role in conversion rate optimization. 

That’s why customization goes a long way if you want to lower the chance of users canceling their payment at the very last step.

However, you might face some challenges as the customization possibilities for the checkout page is almost non-existent without the help of a third-party plugin.

Does My WordPress Theme Affect the Customization Process?
