Block Emails & Addresses for WooCommerce Checkout

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 · 26% 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.

   I used this to block Google Bot creating fake accounts and purchases using @[email protected] It worked a treat, google bot could still check prices via the checkout but could not make the actual sale, preventing hundreds of fake sales or abandoned carts

   Great plugin! Does what it says. But I was wondering if you could update it to support WooCommerce’s HPOS. I want to enable it, but it says that your plugin isn’t compatible with it.

   If you’re running a WooCommerce store, having a quick and easy way to block known fraudulent email domains or specific users from checking out is essential. It is lightweight, user-friendly, and does the job perfectly. This plugin has already saved our store from countless fraudulent orders. How does it work? Simply enter in specific email addresses, or entire domains that you wish to block from placing orders on your store. If the block criteria is met when they try to place the order, a customizable message will appear at the top of the page and the order will not proceed. This plugin is now essential to all of our WooCommerce stores.
