MetalpriceAPI

A WooCommerce plugin that prices products from live metal rates

We built a plugin that pulls gold and silver prices from MetalpriceAPI and keeps e-shop prices in line with the market, without anyone editing them by hand.

What we delivered

Automatic price updates

Product prices follow the current gold and silver rates without manual edits.

API integration

The plugin talks to MetalpriceAPI and processes the data directly inside WooCommerce.

Fewer pricing errors

Removing manual edits removes the risk of a product being sold at an outdated price.

About the project

Prices that keep up with the market.

MetalpriceAPI provides real-time and historical data on precious metals and currency rates. We connected it to the client’s WooCommerce e-shop so that product prices reflect market movements automatically.

How we worked

From the interface to automated pricing.

Analysis

We went through the client’s pricing rules and what the API could deliver.

Integration

We connected the plugin to MetalpriceAPI and mapped the data onto products.

Automation

We set up regular updates so prices track the market on their own.

Handover

We verified the pricing against real rates and handed the plugin over.
