New plugin: Mysterx - Mystery Boxes for WooCommerce

Bring the thrill of surprise to your WooCommerce store and engage customers with a fun, gamified shopping experience

We just launched MysteryX – Mystery Boxes for WooCommerce, a new plugin that brings the fun and excitement of loot boxes to your e-commerce site.

This addon lets store owners easily create and sell online mystery boxes, each containing a curated selection of products defined by the seller. Customers can see all items in the box before buying, but won’t know which one they’ll win until the on-screen unboxing animation reveals their prize.

This gamified shopping experience boosts engagement through curiosity and anticipation. Surprise boxes are fun to open, and when packed with real value, they work well at clearing inventory or rewarding loyal customers.

Use Cases

Selling mystery boxes as standalone products
Offer a free or discounted mystery box as a thank-you for a purchase
Introduce new products through discovery-driven purchases
Clear slow-moving or excess inventory

How it Works

MysteryX adds a custom ‘Mystery Box’ product type to WooCommerce. Store owners configure each box by selecting winnable products, setting stock levels per item, and defining the box price.

On frontend, customers can see the list of gift products in the box, and there’s also option to show the value (price) of each reward and winning chances.

Customers buy a surprise box and open it from My Account > Boxes, where an animated reveal shows their prize. This section also lets them track unopened boxes and view all prizes won.
