Update activity

How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

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

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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

    I needed to add a simple donation to the checkout. Most available plugins add a lot of unnecessary complexity, annoying top-level admin menus, or very opinionated designs.This one is simple and it does the trick.

    DO NOT INSTALL THIS PLUGIN!! I thought it was a great idea to install a tip plugin on my website. But after installing this plugin my site was infected with a malware. No matter what i did I couldn’t get rid of it. This plugin was the only thing new that I installed before the malware infection took place. Luckily my hosting had daily backup and I was able to restore my website.

    this plug-in does not function properly. It does not add the tip to the total and it creates fatal errors. This is not a technical support review. It is true assertion as to how this plug-in performs not well at all. This topic was modified 1 year, 6 months ago by tamika77034.

    Why would you change critical variable names…? they’ve added 0 development value, it was much more dynamic before, now you’ve locked us into an unnecessary naming convention…. Broke shop operations for over 2 hours…had to turn it off. I assume “enter_tip_placeholder” became “wc_order_tip_custom_enter_tip_placeholder” ?  This topic was modified 2 years, 10 months ago by arberdesign.

    This is an amazing plugin, but it would be even better if we had the option of ONLY showing this when a client selects Flat-rate (delivery) as a shipping option. Right now it displays even when it’s a Local Pickup, and the tips are only needed for the driver doing the deliveries. Anyone know of a PHP conditional statement that allows only displaying on the Checkout page if the Flat-rate delivery is selected?

    At first, this was the best free plugin I used to use and I received lots of money but I couldn’t control all tips in the report tip function in woocommerce. Therefore, I had to remember manually, Hoping could fix it. LOVE PLUGIN

    You have outdone yourself on this plugin. You have seriously thought through all of the options and it literally needs nothing! Great job!!

    I really like this plugin. It makes it super easy to allow adding tips to a customer’s order. All settings are self-explanatory, and everything works smoothly. I am using this solution to add donations to an order. You can easily change all displayed texts and captions to suit your needs.
