Payment Gateway for PayPal Pro on 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. 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.

   Avoid this payment method if at all possible. After installation, you need complex set-up between a Paypal account and a sandbox account. After configuration of APIs, you will receive error messages with NO MEANING (invalid header?) on checkout with sample credit card information given in the sandbox account, if it does not process. I set this up over a year ago for another website to test e commerce. Absolutely, NO IMPROVEMENTS with PayPal Pro Sandbox. Actually, it has become worse. NOTE: Installed Strip plugin and the account was set up in seconds with APIs and sample credit card information. I spent over an hour troubleshooting PayPal Pro.
