Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
Occasionally updatedHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated value
What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.
Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

its working fine but plz add more features to this plugin

Well, well, well. First, you need to purchase to find out that the complete system is relying on cookies. What a shame, this is not practical, once a user is deleting his browser, referral sales are no longer recorded which is a mess. This makes a NO GO for this plugin at all. Support is also crap, after one message no further interaction.

I have tried for more than 3 years to have them fix a bug. The plugin is not loading jquery and css when language is other than default. Instead lof looking at how to help a paying customer, they say it’s not core WP feature and refuse to look at it. Pathetic !!Can’t put the link here, but just google this: “uncaught typeerror.datepicker is not a function” “affiliate manager”

I initially read some of the other reviews and got discouraged from downloading and trying this plugin. But luckily I did do it in the end because as it turns out, these other reviewers must have either reviewed a very old (and therefore different) version of this plugin, or they expect everything to be served on a golden plate to them. I was able to figure out all the functions of this plugin using their website. And now I have successfully set up my own affiliate program. I have achieved something that I thought was very complicated – thanks to this plugin!

I use this plugin to pay influenceurs who talk about my products since a few years. Easy to set up, I really want to thanks the creator of this plugin.

Poor interface. Usability needs improvements.

La propuesta esta muy buena, se puede trabajar con todo lo que necesita en el tema de afiliados para productos. Existen dos inconvenientes, los cuales son: 1- El formulario de registro: tanto la casilla de la provincia como la del código postal está anclada a los Estados pertenecientes a Estados Unidos, por lo que es un grave inconveniente para páginas web y clientes fuera de ese país. 2.- La contraseña para el usuario recién registrado (no estoy seguro si es porque trabajé el complemento en el local host). No me llega a mi correo Gmail el registro de mi correo como afiliado, así mismo ocurre con la recuperación de la contraseña.
