 Once a visitor completes an eCash payment, the plugin verifies the transaction via PayButton and instantly unlocks the protected content.
 
 =02. Do users need to register?=
-No – PayButton’s no-signup approach uses session tracking and database entries to grant immediate access using the public key of the payer's wallet.
+No. PayButton’s no-signup approach uses session tracking and database entries to grant immediate access using the public key of the payer's wallet.
 
 =03. Can I customize the appearance of the paywall?=
 Absolutely, the admin dashboard allows you to modify button texts, pricing, color schemes, and more to match your theme.
 
-=04. Will PayButton’s cookies break page caching?=
-No. PayButton sets two HMAC-signed paybutton_user_wallet_address and paybutton_paid_content to track user wallet address and unlocked content. Cookies only get updated (and send a Set-Cookie header) when their value actually changes, so full-page caches (e.g. WP Super Cache, W3 Total Cache) and server caches (Nginx, Varnish) remain valid.
+=04. How does PayButton work with WooCommerce?=
+PayButton integrates as a WooCommerce payment gateway. At checkout, customers select eCash, complete the payment via PayButton, and the order is automatically marked according to the verified transaction status.
+
+=05. Are WooCommerce payments verified securely?=
+Yes. All payments are verified server-side before the order status is updated. The plugin validates the transaction amount and currency to ensure accuracy and prevent manipulation.
+
+=06. Do customers need an account to pay with eCash?=
+No. Customers can complete their WooCommerce purchase without creating a PayButton account. The payment is processed directly from their wallet, and WooCommerce handles the order details as usual.
+
+=07. Does PayButton support automatic order updates?=
+Yes. Once the transaction is confirmed, WooCommerce order statuses are updated automatically (notes added), ensuring a seamless checkout experience.
