Biggest opportunity: Swap “cart”, “woocommerce cart” and “floating cart” for “mini cart”, “sticky cart” and “cart limits”. “cart” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “mini cart” sits at #7 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce cart” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “sticky cart” sits at #9 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “floating cart” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #15. “cart limits” sits at #12 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 →2.3%
of downloads still active
At least 800 of 34.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,164 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other eCommerce 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 3 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 “cart”, “woocommerce cart” and “floating cart” for “mini cart”, “sticky cart” and “cart limits”. “cart” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “mini cart” sits at #7 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce cart” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “sticky cart” sits at #9 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “floating cart” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #15. “cart limits” sits at #12 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 “floating cart”. #15 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

It’s one of the best cart plugins I’ve ever used. It’s very easy to install, and I can customize literally everything that suits the theme.The support was very quick to resolve my issues.

Pues después de mucho mirar, encontré esta pequeña joya. Fácil de configurar e intuitivo. Y si quieres el PRO no es nada caro.

One of the best floating cart plugins to use. It has a lot of functions that are great for conversions on a shopping site. Exellent support for the plugin, I personally had to ask the plugindeveloper for help. The quick response and everything so well solved a problem for me that I tried for quite some time to solve myself. The free plugin itself provides quite a few functions. But I preferred to upgrade to Pro, which adds a lot more functions for little money. It really is a plugin worth every cent.

I rather like this plugin and prefer it over the sticky add to cart ones. Useful on a mobile, offering a quick way of viewing the basket, checkout or continue shopping, rather than having to scroll back to the top if sticky headers are not an option. Able to decide exactly which pages the floating button should appear on too. I didn’t see in the config how to change the colours of the number of items in basket, but that’s a small thing.
