How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

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.

    This plugin provides a ton of features by integrating Stripe as a WooCommerce payment method that supports a ton of Stripe’s payment methods and integrations. It also pulls your Stripe account dashboard data into your site admin area, and it has an onboarding experience that is easy enough for website clients…that is significant.I haven’t seen any issues yet on two sites. I normally use a different Stripe Payment integration that I like, but this one is good enough to make me change. Hey, StellarWP! Have you thought about making this work with other ecommerce checkout options in WP? I bet you have. I’d love to have this without WooCommerce for many simple use cases when WC is way overkill. Maybe make a paid version with a light ecommerce checkout flow?

    This is the smoothest, easiest on the eyes, most robust ways to use Stripe in WooCommerce, hands down. The features, the UI, everything about it is a dream! p.s. full disclosure, I work at StellarWP and have been watching the development of this for a long time, I still will recommend this for a REALLY long time regardless.
