Biggest opportunity: Add “moldova” and “mbway” to your wp.org tags. You rank #17 and #21 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed these are the slots worth spending.

0.4%

of downloads still active

At least 300 of 68.2K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Payments plugin keeps 1.0%, across 1,042 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.

    Where can I find integration of “Skrill” with “Easy Digital Download” ?

    Although the Transaction Status Completed is set to Processing but all paid orders are marked as Pending. The file class-skrill-payment-gateway.php has a lot of bugs. It’s not handling the payment response properly.
