of downloads still active
At least 900 of 27.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,173 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other eCommerce plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 4 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

I received 360 orders with fake credit cards in just one weekend. Do not install this plugin as it is highly dangerous. A gateway for SPAMs.

We replace the woocommerce add-on Moneris plugin with this plugin as it works much better without conflicting with other plugins on my site.
