Launching a WooCommerce store in Uzbekistan

WooCommerce is a free WordPress extension that turns a site into a full-fledged online store. The Uzbek market has its specifics: local payment systems, delivery and legal requirements.

Payment systems

Connect Payme and Click — the two dominant payment systems in the country. Ready-made gateway plugins exist for them; an alternative is accepting payments through an aggregator.

Delivery

Set up delivery zones by region and integration with courier services. For Tashkent a separate rate and pickup option make sense.

Legal nuances

  • A public offer and privacy policy on the site.
  • Correct display of prices including VAT.
  • Closing documents for businesses.

Performance

Stores are heavier than regular sites: catalog, cart, account area. An object cache and a plan with enough resources are critical so that checkout doesn't “hang”.
