PeachPay — Payments & Express Checkout for WooCommerce (supports Stripe, PayPal, Square, Authorize.net, NMI)

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

Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

61 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 20 listed. 41 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Directory rank

Ranked about #10,100 to #11,100, alongside the other plugins at 300+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 21 Oct 2026.

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. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 4 months ago; a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, which places it about 70% of the way through.

   This plugin started off great but it suddenly stops working even with no plugin update, no update of WordPress or Woocommerce and no update of any other plugins or themes causing conflicts. Suddenly, payment methods that were working before stop working unexpectedly and with no warning until a bunch of potential customers contact you because they had issue at checkout. After updating my plugin last night, previously Square, Stripe, Paypal were connected via an OAUTH consent, after updating the plugin, they are connected by explicity entering app ID and secret tokens. There was no notice of that so my payment methods were simply disconnected until I entered the correct keys. Other times, certain payment methods just stopped working. Anything that opens a third party payment screen such as After Pay, Klarna, Cashapp, PayPal, etc (basically everything except for credit card) sometimes collects payment but fails to send webhook status update back to the site showing that the order has been paid, leaving the order in a status of “Pending payment” that never finalizes. This plugin has been nothing but a headache and has caused tens of thousands of dollars in lost sales. Which is a shame because it was promising having all of the payment options in one plugin with a nice UI. This topic was modified 2 months, 2 weeks ago by hagentertainment.

   When something seems “too good to be true”… it usually is. I just needed the authorize.net portion. Setup was a breeze. It connected right to my authorize.net account. After setting up (which was easy); nothing would show at checkout. I checked forums, asked AI, read the documentation… nothing. I reached out to support asking simple questions. Their response was to send my “registered merchant name”. I have no clue what that even is. Thought it was my business name? My authorize.net name? Website name? I gave it to them. 24-hours later they responding they couldn’t confirm my “registered merchant name”. Maybe the other plugins work but the authorize.net portion does not work at all. If you are brave and install it; be sure to go back to your authorize.net account and revoke their access.

   We were surprised to receive a $99 subscription renewal with no warning. No way to cancel. No response from Peachpay to our numerous requests. In 10 years on the web, we’ve never had this problem. We are going to file a complaint with the European authorities.We stopped using this plugin 6 months ago because of the extra costs and broken promises.

   The premium version is great, well made and functional. But, the introduction of fees for premium users (0.79% of transaction value) on top of the monthly subscription charge makes it expensive and uncompetitive compared to other premium plugins. Will uninstall and move to cartflows once this paid month is over. I would recommend removing this fee, or at least reducing it and providing an option within the plugin to have fees charged to the seller and not the buyer. Most customers don’t like to see ‘hidden’ charges at checkout.

   I was looking for an easy to implement solution for quick checkout and PeachPay fits the bill. It was very easy to implement in my WooCommerce store and my customers love how easy it is to check out compared to other checkout plugins. The customer support is also very helpful, they went above and beyond to help me with a problem when I needed help and gets me back to business. I highly recommend this plugin if you’re looking for an express checkout plug-in or a way to simplify your checkout process for your WooCommerce store.

   This plug-in works very well and it provides an exceptional value to my site and its checkout processes. The interface is simple and clear. The frontend results are polished and very classy looking. The team over at Peachpay went out of their way to help with 2 hiccups along the way. Highly recommend this plug-in and the service behind it. Great value.

   This is in an absolutely superb plugin in a sea of mediocre WC payment gateway plugins. The support offered by the team is top 3 I’ve received from any plugin or theme ever. They listen, have time for you and are attentive to detail. Overall this is a very solid 5-star review from me and can’t recommend this product enough.
