WooCommerce’s Market Share
WooCommerce was created by the developers behind WooThemes—Adii Pienaar, Mark Forrester, and Magnus Jepson—who released it as a WordPress plugin in 2011. The company Automattic, which is the parent company of WordPress, acquired WooThemes and WooCommerce in 2015, and has since become the main developer of the e-commerce platform.
WooCommerce Powers Over 4.5 Million Stores
Recent reports from late 2024 and 2025 indicate that WooCommerce powers over 4.5 million live e-commerce stores globally. It is the leading e-commerce platform, with some sources suggesting it powers around 25-28% of all online stores and a significant portion of the entire internet.
WooCommerce has historically held, and continues to hold, the highest market share by number of online stores, primarily due to its nature as a flexible, open-source plugin for the ubiquitous WordPress platform. While platforms like Shopify have high revenue and strong brand recognition, WooCommerce’s integration with WordPress makes it a popular choice for creating and managing a wide variety of online stores.
