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

N/A

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.

    The company I work for have been using wonderful payments for a few months now with zero complaints. Wonderful payments is a low cost subscription based payment system offering instant bank payments with 1p transaction fees. It really is that simple. Plugin installation was simple and the registration via the mobile app is straightforward. Any questions we had were quickly answered by Wonderful’s Business Manager, Reece. No flimflam, just straight talking.
