About this plugin
A generic uptime monitor tells you your site returned HTTP 200. It does not tell you that a plugin update switched off your only payment gateway three hours ago, and that you have taken no orders since.
UptimeStore watches the things that actually stop a WooCommerce store selling:
- Payment gateways. Alerts when no gateway is enabled, which means the store cannot take money at all.
- Checkout, cart and shop pages. Alerts when one is trashed, drafted or deleted. The storefront still looks fine, but customers cannot pay.
- Order flow. Reports order counts so UptimeStore can alert when orders stop against your store’s own baseline.
- Plugin and theme changes. Records what changed and when, so a break can be lined up against the update that caused it.
- WP-Cron. Alerts when scheduled tasks stall, which silently stops order emails and stock sync.
- Fatal errors. Alerts when WordPress drops into recovery mode after a plugin or theme crash.
- Pending updates. Reports plugins sitting on known-vulnerable versions.
Alerts arrive by email and Slack from your UptimeStore account.

Connect store.
io/uptimestore.
That host belongs to the same company, Sassly Technologies Private Limited, and
serves the UptimeStore API; no data is sent anywhere else.
What is sent, and when:
- When you click Connect store: your site address, admin email address, site name and timezone, your WordPress, PHP and WooCommerce versions, and your active plugins and theme with their versions. This creates your UptimeStore account for the store.
- Every five minutes while connected: store health (whether the cart, checkout and shop pages are published, how many payment methods are enabled, order counts, WP-Cron and recovery mode state), plus the plugin and theme list when it changes.
- When plugins, themes or WooCommerce settings change: what changed, when, and the display name of the admin who changed it. Setting values are never sent.
- When you click Disconnect or deactivate the plugin: a notice so UptimeStore stops expecting reports.
No customer data, order contents or shopper personal data is ever sent.
UptimeStore also sends requests to your site: a signed request to the plugin’s health endpoint, and a plain request to your homepage every few minutes to check it is up.
