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.

    This plugin is largely unsupported, pretty messy in implementation, has no language files and is of general poor quality. But it works, we switched to it when the HPP plugin stopped working so it got us out of a hole, it can Global Payments weeks to respond to a ticket, and even then it’s poor support. It also forces 3DS which is good. I sound like such a moanyhead! Top Tip! The support is much better if you go directly to api integrations, not the normal GP support, you’ll get an answer in 24 hours if not sooner 🙂 This topic was modified 3 years, 1 month ago by David Henry.
