Instant Bank Payments via GoCardless for WooCommerce

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 · 100% 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.

   This worked at first and I was very impressed, okay I did get an occasional error, Then I took it out of testing and went live a customer tried to pay at 11pm and my website encountered a fatal error. My host investigated and told me it was this plugin that caused the fatal error. Once it was deactivated the site came back online. During this I lost all access to my WooCommerce plugin. My host were very quick to blame this plugin. Since leaving a not so great review, @Kedament was extremely helpful in aiding me to get everything right. Very quick and very helpful. They are just testing this plug in with the PHP 8 which they have said isn’t clear on the plug-in page. At first I was quite annoyed however the helpfulness of @kedament has reassured me and I will reactivate the plug in once they have confirmed capability with version 8.
