Biggest opportunity: Swap “bitcoin” and “crypto payments” for “solana” and “litecoin”. “bitcoin” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #24. “solana” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “crypto payments” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #21. “litecoin” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active

At least 400 of 32.8K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Payments plugin keeps 1.0%, across 1,043 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Payments plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 2 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    CryptoWoo has been a massive upgrade compared to another crypto payment plugin I used previously. The difference has been night and day. The checkout process feels cleaner, more professional, and much easier to manage. It integrates well with WooCommerce, gives better control over payment instructions, and makes the whole crypto payment experience feel far more reliable for both the store owner and the customer. One of the biggest things I noticed is how much more confidence CryptoWoo gives you when handling crypto payments. Everything feels more stable, better structured, and easier to customise compared to the other plugin I was using. The support has also been excellent. They are responsive, helpful, and actually take the time to assist properly, which makes a huge difference when you are relying on the plugin for live payments. Overall, CryptoWoo is easily 10x better than the other crypto payment plugin I was using. It feels safer, more polished, and much more professional. I would strongly recommend CryptoWoo to any WooCommerce store owner wanting to accept crypto payments.

    I purchased the add-on for installation support to make sure the plugin worked properly. The team at Cryptowoo not only helped install the plugin, but also edited its appearance so that it matched my websites style. They did it in a quick and professional manner. Very happy!

    No 1 workable, plug and play plugin for payment with crypto money, where user can see before final payment step how much will cost him his order. This is the plugin that only was doing withpput any issues ( I have tried about 10, 5 was Pro!)

    I’ve been using this plugin for a couple of years now and it’s by far the best crypto payment plugin available. Firstly, unlike 99% of other crypto payment plugins, there are no commission fees or any extra costs per transaction. So that’s a massive plus in my book. The customer support/dev team (Mark and Olav) have been great and they actually care about improving the plugin.I found an issue with a conflicting checkout plugin on Jan 8th that was causing an error and contacted support. By Jan 10th, we’d found the issue and had a temporary solution. Just over a week later they contacted me again to let me know they had released an update for the plugin that fixed the issue. The thing with customer support for any plugin, is that they can only work with the information you give them, especially if you don’t give them access to your website.I personally don’t give support teams access to my website as I run a large ecommerce store but that meant I had to provide them with a lot of info and also do a good chunk of testing to debug the issue.By giving them in-depth details and information as to what was happening, they were able to replicate the issue on their end and also find out the solution. Great work team!

    We use this plugin along with paid add-ons from the developer. In our books its a no-brainer to use the CryptoWoo plugins as you have the payment process in your own hands, especially if you want to use a crypto payment gateway directly to your Ledger or Trezor. Support by the developer has always been very helpful and fast.
