Kustom Checkout for WooCommerce

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 56% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   Had some problems with KCO with my used theme, got fast, concise and great help from Krokedil’s support. What would take me a month of work with little knowledge in coding, they helped me with in under an hour. Real lifesavers! Thanks!

   Seit Jahren immer das gleiche Problem. Die Bestellungen werden nie aktiviert wenn die verschickt und abgeschlossen sind. Es werden in Klarna nicht automatisch aktualisiert. Wir haben zu spät gemerk und viel Geld verloren. Unglaublich.

   I like the design and credibility it adds to my site. Connecting this with the add-ons for Klarna makes the customer journey more smooth and easy for us to complete the order. Had some problems which was caused by a plug in, asked both Klarna and the developer Krokedil for help. Their response was swift, professional and helpful. Thank you!

   Why?? the button is there but it doesn’t work. Please fix this, you should work as the rest of payment systems, like stripe for example, integrate inside the woocommerce checkout to avoid more customization, and people want choices.
