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.

    No issues. They were very responsive and helpful when I reached out regarding a billing issue.

    After the hassle of creating an API login with UPS I discover that to print labels with my UPS account is $90 for this plugin. Not worth it. Simply not worth it. Like so many plug-ins it’s essentially ransomware or hijackware.Should not be listed as free. Provides little to no value as a plugin beyond abusing the banners and possibly surfacing rate shopping. I use flat rate shipping so I could care less about rate shopping for clients. This topic was modified 7 months, 3 weeks ago by brian_greul.

    This plugin works very well, just like the USPS Live Rates plugin by the same developer. I already reviewed that plugin (5 stars), and I won’t repeat those words, but I do feel the same way about this plugin. Not only does it work as it should, but it’s very quick and easy to use. The free version has worked just fine for me so far and I am happy these plugins are available with a free option. Thank you!
