Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
Actively maintainedHow 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
The recent download trend is too spiky to read. The range spans more than 10x because wp.org publishes install counts as broad bands, and conversion and price compound on top. Read the midpoint as an order of magnitude, not a valuation.
How we estimate this
Assumptions
- Free → paid conversion. 0.5%–2% of active installs pay for the pro tier. Typical for freemium WordPress plugins; the real rate varies a lot by product.
- Annual price per customer. $79–$199 a year, typical for eCommerce plugins rather than this plugin's own pricing.
- Acquisition multiple. 2x–4x annual revenue, the going range for small WordPress-plugin businesses, the typical range for a steady plugin.
- Install base. 20K–30K active installs, from our install estimate (wp.org only publishes the floor).
Inputs
- Active installs
- 20K–30K
- Category
- eCommerce
- Pro tier
- detected ("Lite" naming, the free tier of a paid product)
- Download trend
- volatile (a recent download spike, likely a release)

Revenue is installs × conversion × price; value is revenue × a typical acquisition multiple. Every factor is an assumption band, so the output is a wide range on purpose. If you're buying or selling, treat this as a starting point for due diligence.

I strangely got many Abandoned Carts… I investigated it and they are add-to-cart calls made directly by “random IPs” that DO NOT browse my website at all.This plugin is fake to just try to scam you into buying their PRO version.

The plugin shows thousands of fake abandoned cart items.For example I have 10500 abandoned items in a couple of days, when I have less then 200 active products in the store and an average number of site visitors per day of 20-30. There is no way it could get to that number of people putting items in their carts. Even more, it doesn’t seem to record the real visitors. I tested with a logged in user and put some items in the cart. It didn’t saved the user info.

There was an issue capturing email with the new WooCommerce checkout block, and Priyanka worked to identify and prioritize a fix that’s rolling out in their next update. Now my site is properly sending Abandoned Cart emails. I tried so many plugins and I’m glad I chose Abandoned Cart Lite!
