Biggest opportunity: Swap “wallet” and “woocommerce cancel order” for “customer satisfaction” and “warranty”. “wallet” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #17. “customer satisfaction” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce cancel order” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #11. “warranty” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

1.6%

of downloads still active

At least 4K of 246.7K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,174 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 10 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.
