Every unnecessary field costs you sales.
WHAT WOOCOMMERCE ASKS FOR BY DEFAULT
Billing name, address, city, state, postcode, country, phone and email, plus shipping address for physical goods.
WHAT TO REMOVE
Company name, unless you sell to businesses Second address line, if it confuses more than it helps Postcode, where customers in your market do not reliably know theirs Any field you do not act on
WHAT TO KEEP
Phone number, which is essential for delivery in Nigeria and should be required Email, which carries the order confirmation
HOW TO CHANGE THEM
A checkout field editor plugin is the practical route. It lets you hide, reorder and make fields optional without code.
WHAT TO ADD
Only what you genuinely need: delivery instructions, a preferred delivery day, a landmark for the address.
TESTING
After any change, place a test order as a guest on a phone. Field changes frequently break validation in ways that are invisible until someone tries to check out.
