WPSmartPay – Payment Forms, Invoices, Donations & Subscriptions

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

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.

7 of the last 12 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review, and 6 of those landed between 2021-06-08 and 2021-06-27.

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.

   I would not recommend WPSmartPay. In short: Many advertised features DO NOT work or are bugged Support is terrible, generic and very slow Even highly skilled, experienced WordPress devs struggle to implement the plugin

   Really it’s a good plugin for handling payment with WooCommerce through Paddle. I have been using the Pro Version of it’s for processing subscription payment for my plugin “Leo Product Recommendations for WooCommerce”

   Love this! Very well thought out and eliminates some headaches associated with the “woo” experience, and pairing this with paddle for woo makes this a lot better option than woo subscriptions in my opinion. Clean and sleek! This topic was modified 5 years ago by chriswinters.
