CharityGlow — Donations & Fundraising

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

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.

   I had a great experience using CharityGlow — Donations & Fundraising. It’s very easy to set up, has a clean UI, and supports Stripe, PayPal, and SSLCommerz, which makes fundraising smooth. The campaign management, donor tracking, and customization options are really helpful. Overall, a simple yet powerful plugin — highly recommended!

   I’ve tried several donation plugins, but CharityGlow truly stands out — especially because it offers free recurring donations, which is rare! Most plugins charge extra for this feature, so having it included without additional cost is a huge benefit for our organization. The setup was simple on our WordPress site, and the recurring donation option works smoothly. It allows our supporters to contribute monthly without any hassle, helping us build stable, long-term funding. The forms are clean, customizable, and mobile-friendly. Everything runs perfectly, and the overall experience has been excellent. If you’re looking for a powerful donation plugin with free recurring donation functionality, CharityGlow is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended! 🙌
