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

Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. annual revenue

Est. acquisition value

N/A

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.

    Does exactly what is on the box, with extra features such as being conditionally enabled for specific shipping methods.

    Does this addon work with WooCommerce 5.8.0 ?? cause WordPress says that it might not work. I have WooCommerce 4.7.2 installed right now, and I’m thinking that it might be due to that, that WordPress tells me that they are not sure if this will work or not. So will it work?

    Perfect plugin. Simple and does the job. No cruft. Combine this with a custom order status and a tiny bit of custom code, and my store is now automatically sending invoices when the customer chooses this gateway. (As the developer has noted, this plugin does NOT do anything with invoices.)

    Excellent plugin, works like a charm. Used it for several years now. Perfect for B2B sales when you want to send invoice after.

    Easy to setup and contains the basics for using invoice payment gateway. Doesn’t need to be more advanced then this.
