Biggest opportunity: Add “pay in store” and “store” to your wp.org tags. You rank #4 and #20 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 3 listed these are the slots worth spending.

of downloads still active
At least 2K of 24.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.3%, across 5,181 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.
