Biggest opportunity: Swap “payment” for “recurring payments”. “payment” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “recurring payments” sits at #18 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →2.6%
of downloads still active
At least 2K of 77.7K 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 12 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.

What to do about it
- Swap “payment” for “recurring payments”. “payment” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “recurring payments” sits at #18 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “payments”. #16 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

All reviews on wp.org ↗- ★★★★★ WPforME1.4y ago
I was unable to get to use this plugin because the other two plugins from this developer do not function as advertised. You are supposed to use the other two plugins to build a site and this one to collect money but the other two plugins don’t work, despite what you will see written. I’ve tried to contact support but they send documentation that does not match what you see on the screen. The steps and labels don’t match. It’s really bad. Then you have to wait 24 hours for a response and only respond through their website, not just reply to the email. Based on my experience with their premium paid tier I would not recommend this developer.11 Jun 20025: Updated 2 stars to 5 stars while in talks with support.
