Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. acquisition value

N/A

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.

    Great plugin. Does something small but important cleanly and simply. Includes plenty of customisation.

    After installing, my site would not load for customers. I contacted my hosting provider who helped narrow down the issue to this plugin creating over 300,000 calls. I do not recommend installing until this is resolved. It worked great for the first few hours, then all of a sudden my site began to load at a crawl due to the surge of seemingly spam traffic. Once I removed the plugin, the site began loading smoothly as normal. A significant portion of this traffic — approximately 343,992 hits — appears to be targeting the following plugin: 343,992 /wp-content/plugins/showcase-payment-options-icons/js/spopm-payment-icons-plugin.js? Based on this, we recommend reviewing the Showcase Payment Options Icons plugin. You may also try temporarily disabling it to see if this helps resolve the loading issue. Nexcess Support Team

    Does exactly what it says on the tin – simple installation, no-fuss setup and I now have a clean, professional display in my footer.
