Feature since v1.4.0

# Action Scheduler Support

Automatically uses Action Scheduler (when available) instead of WP-Cron for queue processing.

When Action Scheduler is detected (e.g. via WooCommerce), the plugin migrates queue processing from WP-Cron to Action Scheduler automatically — no configuration required. Action Scheduler provides more reliable background execution, persistent job tracking, and better performance under high-volume traffic.
