You can change the place order button text in 3 ways.

to change the text, which we will see below with examples. Upload Multiple Featured Images

Method 1: Change Place Order Button Text with Variables in Python
woocommerce_order_button_text

This is a very simple method to change the button text. You just have to hit the
function with this hook filter and return the custom own text.

Copy the below code in your active theme’s functions.php file (I would
recommend child theme to use any customization).

1 add_filter( 'woocommerce_order_button_text', 'ybc_custom

2
3 function ybc_custom_place_order_button_text( $button_tex
4 // your custom text here
5 return 'Make Order';
6 }

After inserting this code in your functions.php file save it and check the result on
woocommerce checkout page. You will see the difference, like the below
images.

Before hook function

After hook function

Method 2: Change Place Order Button Text with

woocommerce_order_button_html

With this filter hook method, we can also change the place order button text with
our own custom text. It is also a simple method.

This filter hook woocommerce_order_button_html returns the button

HTML and we will use str_replace() , substr_replace() or
preg_replace() PHP function to replace the “Place Order” text in the
HTML.

You can also create the button HTML from scratch and make it as per your
requirements.

Let’s see the code.

1 add_filter( 'woocommerce_order_button_html', 'ybc_custom

2
3 function ybc_custom_place_order_button_html( $button_htm
4 $button_html = str_replace( 'Place order', 'Make Ord
5 return $button_html;
6 }

Place this above code in your theme’s functions.php file and save it. And you
will see the result same as the first method.

Method 3: Change Place Order Button Text with Template

file (payment.php)

In this method, we will override the woocommerce template file to change the
place order button text.

Note: Use the child theme to override the woocommerce template files OR any
changes you want to make. Check this step-by-step guide, If you don’t know how
to create a child theme in WordPress.

Let’s see how to do that.

Firstly, you need to find this file (payment.php) in woocommerce’s templates

folder and then copy this file in your theme folder.

1. Go to this path plugins > woocommerce > templates > checkout

2. Find the payment.php file and copy it

3. Create a new folder “woocommerce” in your active theme and create a new
folder “checkout” inside woocommerce folder

4. And place that copy file in the checkout folder

5. Now, you can make changes in this file. You will see the button in this file file
like below image

Place Order Button in Template File (payment.php)

In this code, you can change the button text.

Note: I will recommend using the above two filter hooks methods that are very
simple and easy.

Change the Place Order Button Text on

WooCommerce Checkout Based on Specific
Product in Cart

Yes! you can change the place order button text based on the specific product
or category in the cart OR you can make any condition.

We just have to make a condition in the above methods to check is it true or

not? If it will true then the button text will change otherwise not.

Let’s see with example code.

1 add_filter( 'woocommerce_order_button_text', 'ybc_custom

2
3 function ybc_custom_place_order_button_text( $button_tex
4
5 $cat_check = false;
6
7 foreach ( WC()->cart->get_cart() as $cart_item_key =
8
9 $product = $cart_item['data'];
10 // check if shoes category product in cart
11 if ( has_term( 'shoes', 'product_cat', $product
12 $cat_check = true;
13 break;
14 }
15 }
16
17 if ( $cat_check ) {
18 return 'Make Order';
19 }
20
21 }

In the above example, we check that the “shoes” category product exists in the
cart or not. If it will exist then the place order button text will be changed else
not.

You can also check the specific product with the ID. e.g:

1 $product_id = 22;
2
3 if( WC()->cart->find_product_in_cart( WC()->cart->genera
4 return 'Make Order';
5 }

This code will change the place order button text only for product ID 22 if it is in
the cart.

Change the Button Text For Other Payment

Gateways

You can also change the button text for other payment gateways.

Suppose, if other payment gateways OR your custom payment gateway don’t

have a hook to change the button text then what you will do? Because you
cannot make plugin file changes directly.

So, in this case, you will use gettext filter hook to achieve this. It will work
for mostly all payment gateways and you can also use this to change any text
in woocommerce files.

Let’s see the code.

1 add_filter( 'gettext', 'ybc_change_paypal_button_text',

2
3 function ybc_change_paypal_button_text( $translated_text
4
5 if( $translated_text == 'Proceed to PayPal' ) {
6 $translated_text = 'Continue to PayPal';
7 }
8
9 return $translated_text;
10 }

Place this code in your active theme’s functions.php file and save it. And then
you will see the button text has been changed for the PayPal payment gateway.

See the following images before and after the gettext filter hooks.

PayPal Button Before gettext hook

PayPal Button After gettext hook

You can also change the translatable text with the plugin Say What.

Installed and Activate the SayWhat plugin. Follow this step-by-step guide on
how to install the WordPress plugin?

After installation, you will find the option under Tools >Text Changes. And add a
new Text Changes to change any specific text in woocommerce.

That’s it.

Hope! you understand the above methods about how to change woocommerce
place order button text and also change for if a specific product in cart and
change the button text for other payment gateways.
