Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
Actively maintainedHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
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 declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

This plugin doesn’t work at all, even though it has been tested on two completely different WooCommerce online shops (with two different customers). Support is slow, unresponsive and asks for completely unnecessary information, which delays the process every time. It takes several weeks just to ask for something completely pointless. What’s more, despite the poor reviews, this plugin hasn’t been updated for over two months. This topic was modified 1 month, 2 weeks ago by spinoops.

Unfortunately, my client insists on using this as their payment gateway.The SUMUP platform is so non user friendly and impossible to find anything you are looking for. The setup of their test account is a painful process. And their online support is setup to be VERY inconvenient to ultise, but I guess this is their plan/intent. You have to VERIFY yourself each time you want to open a support chat. This is so, so stupid, as you are already logged into your SUMUP account. Even when you do succeed on reaching support, the level is so low at the end they ‘pass the issue’ on to senior engineers, and this 99% of time never leads to a successful resolution. I have used ALL the payment gateways, STRIPE, PAYPAL, even woo’s own one. And none were as difficult of as problematic to use as SUMUP plugin. Even when working, if delivers on the checkout page of your Website TWO pay buttons. And still they have not fixed this one……

installed and tried connecting to my sumup account, but theres no field to add the API key and auto connection errored. support on sumup only goes to version 2.5, which tells you to input the API key manually (no field for that anymore) and the support chat is AI so it doesnt know much of anything.

The Sum Up solution doesn’t support shared hosting (tested with OVH). It’s the first time i see this with a payment solution. The support answer me to use a dedicated IP address and not an IP that is part of a shared-tier hosting plan. SumUP: Please consider to change your connection system, lots of people use shared hosting.

This plugin had a lot of bad reviews but they are mostly older. I installed it, activated it and followed the setup instructions. Basically, once the plugin connects to your SumUp account you’re ready, in my case anyway everything was automatically set up. I tested it, worked without a hitch.
