How 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

N/A

Est. acquisition value

N/A

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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

    EU VAT Guard for WooCommerce does exactly what we were looking for. We only needed a small adjustment for our version and the support was excellent and fast.

    This plugin solves exactly what you would think is such an important need for any B2B shops but what woocommerce strangely does not offer out of the box. Support is great as well and replies are received within 24 hours.

    EU VAT Guard for WooCommerce works perfectly and makes EU VAT handling much easier. The support was very helpful with the setup, and the invoice customisation was done exactly as I needed. Highly recommended.
