Quick Paypal Payments

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

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

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.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

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.

   CEO Aenigma10 They responded quickly to multiple questions I had before purchasing the plugin. I needed recurring payments for several aspects of my business, and this plugin was the perfect resolution. This topic was modified 3 years, 10 months ago by boo3s.

   I had the free version for years and just upgraded to the platinum version and could not be happier. This is the best plugin for a fast and good-looking way to collect any dollar amount the customer chooses to pay.

   This plugin, immediately just after the installation, asks the permit to collect a lot of information about the website and the users. I refused and than it crashed my website. I had to rename the plugin folder by FTP to restore my WordPress and then immediately delete this plugin.

   Such a shame that this plugin does not work on my Enfold/Themeforest based website. Bundles of bugs make it unusable and the developer hardly responds to the clients’ worries (I did get the Pro version). I say “hardly” because I had to insist before he took action and did a patch to correct one bug. And that took almost a year! But now it is riddled with bugs and I have completely lost trust in the plugin. I have found another extension that works fine (and the devs respond to a query within 48hrs). So IF you get this plugin, and IF it works for you, consider yourself lucky and enjoy. But if it bugs…
