Hi there, which plugin would you use to create a really simple pickup order function for a local store with a WordPress site?
By simple I mean: This shop has only one product type but several variations. It does not use product photos and the shopping experience should be as easy as possible, like:
1: selection page showing variations in a list, user makes his choices
2: show the selected variations and total price, user enters his name & email
3: confirmation page with pickup details and same data sent by email
What makes it complicated: The customer must be able to combine variations and choose different amounts each, and the different variations also have different prices. Like having different products but without the need for product pages etc.
I am not sure yet if stock management will be needed but probably not. I could use WooCommerce but it seems to be too big and complicated for this simple task. Also it is required not to use a third party service like Shopify.

A customized solution would be possible but end up being more expensive. WooCommerce might be overkill but it likely has everything you’re looking for, and you can simply not use its extra features. WooCommerce has a big team behind it, so you don’t have to worry about its longevity, plus you don’t have the headache of maintaining your custom code-base. WooCommerce does tend to be resource hungry, but with proper resources and configuration WooCommerce stores can be fast.
Sounds like a simple form plugin that can handle dynamic output will be more than enough. I have seen Fluent Forms do something like that but in the paid version.
A custom solution will definitely work. A simple form with some JS to calculate the totals.
