Are you a WPMU DEV reseller looking to offer their powerful hosting and website tools under your own brand — but frustrated by the limitations of their built-in sales system?
In this blog, we’ll show you how to use WooCommerce + WS Form to create your own fully customizable checkout flow, resell WPMU DEV services under your brand, and handle provisioning manually — while still giving your customers a professional experience.
Why Build Your Own Sales Flow for WPMU DEV services?
While WPMU DEV offers a great set of white-labeled services, it does not provide an API for automating product rollout. That means you’re stuck with their checkout, their supported payment methods, and no option to connect to your own CRM, bookkeeping, or custom workflows.
Let’s take a look at what you’ll actually be building
You’ll use WS Form PRO to create a dynamic product builder that links directly to a WooCommerce product. This allows your customers to fully configure their purchase — including services from WPMU DEV, domain options, and your own custom offerings — all in one seamless flow.
What can your customer choose?
Your custom form will let them build a bundle that might include:
- A domain name (via WPMU DEV or any other registrar)
- Hosting (via WPMU DEV)
- Email inboxes or forwarding (via WPMU DEV or any other provider)
- WordPress theme/template selection
- Daily/hourly backups
- Additional services you offer (SEO, copywriting, maintenance, etc.)
Once configured, the final price is calculated and paid through WooCommerce. After the purchase, you manually provision the services within your WPMU DEV reseller dashboard and activate them for your client.
Real-Time Domain Validation
To improve the experience and avoid failed sales, the form will validate if the domain name is available before the customer can complete checkout.
Here’s how it works:
- Customer enters their desired domain name
- WS Form triggers a webhook to the GoDaddy OTE API
- The API checks if the domain is available for registration
- If available: the domain could be added to the cart
- If taken: the customer is prompted to try a different name or select “Transfer Domain”
Your checkout process becomes smart, professional, and branded — even without automation on WPMU DEV’s side.
