Biggest opportunity: Swap “payments” for “mobile money”. “payments” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “mobile money” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →1.1%
of downloads still active
At least 2K of 190K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Payments plugin keeps 1.0%, across 1,043 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.
This plugin shipped 4 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

Flutterwave rejected my inquiry automatically before I could even speak to a sales rep. UX and onboarding were terrible — not helpful for small businesses or NGOs in Tanzania. Avoid if you need fast global payments.

Hi There, Great Job Flutterwave. I recommend that you go through the installation section so all the required plugin are installed before use. This topic was modified 5 years, 2 months ago by Abraham Jesulayomi Olaobaju.

Flutterwave does not currently support woocommerce subscriptions, so no recurring payments possible.
