In eCommerce, there are many situations where you may want to temporarily stop selling a product.
Completely deleting the product is easy—but impractical when the suspension is only temporary.
Setting stock to zero or switching the product to draft works, but it’s tedious and disrupts your workflow.

That’s where Purchase Gate for WooCommerce comes in.

This plugin allows you to disable purchasing with a single action, while keeping the product visible in shop archives and related product listings. Customers can still see that the product exists—you simply control whether it can be purchased.

If you need detailed and flexible configuration options, please consider using the PRO version.
