ReferralCandy for WooCommerce – Advanced Referral & Affiliate Program

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 · 92% run the current release. 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.

19 of the last 30 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review.

Registering a wp.org account just to leave a review is common and often entirely legitimate. The share here is unusually high for the sample, so it's worth keeping in mind while reading the reviews.

   Jovan has been helping me to better understand my account and investigate nuances in my data. He’s incredibly personable, patient, and responsive. I’ve sent him a lot of detailed information and he’s responds quickly with updates and helpful insights!

   We integrated ReferralCandy with our WooCommerce store and overall it’s been a great experience. The setup was fairly straightforward and it works reliably in the background without causing issues on the site. The referral flow is simple for customers and the dashboard makes it easy to track performance and rewards. It does what it promises without overcomplicating things. Also, shoutout to Jessa from customer support. She was very helpful and quick to respond whenever we had questions or need help. Clear answers, no unnecessary back and forth. That made the whole process much smoother.
