Secondary Plugins

For the Asaas Plugin to work properly, you’ll need to install two additional plugins on your WordPress site:

WooCommerce: the plugin that turns your WordPress site into an online store. It manages your products (physical or virtual), inventory, pricing, shopping cart, and more.
Brazilian Market on WooCommerce: adds required checkout fields for selling in Brazil (CPF, CNPJ, Phone, Address, ZIP Code, etc.).
WooCommerce Subscriptions: required if you work with subscriptions. If you only sell one-time or installment payments, this plugin is optional.

Once you install the Asaas Plugin, a message will appear in your Plugins screen prompting you to install the two plugins mentioned above.
