WP Stripe Checkout

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 · 94% run the current release. 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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   This plugin stores Stripe API keys in the database Options table in plain text. Right? Looks that way to me. This topic was modified 1 year, 3 months ago by Line49 Design.

   Easy to install with great documentation. Adding a stripe payment option has never been this easy to be honest. I tried a couple of other plugins but this one fits my needs perfectly. Also, support was timely and friendly when I needed it.

   It’s simple and does what it says, it also supports variable price and payment links. I love the way it works with just a shortcode and you can dynamically create products using the shortcode rather than pre-creating products. This is awesome. But one major drawback for me (maybe not everyone needs this) is that the order interface doesn’t let you filter orders for a specific product, or export orders to CSV. I think those two functionalities are fairly easy to implements. Would give 5 stars if/when they are there.

   This is an excellent plugin that works perfectly with great documentation and error checking. Don’t forget to enable Client-Only integration in Stripe Dashboard > Settings > Checkout (it is at the bottom of the page).

   Simple to setup and dev helped us rather quickly to find a solution for gathering product ID.

   A simple and light way to add Stripe payments to your site. It’s almost like using a direct pay link from Stripe, but gives you the ability to return users to your site after payment, send an additional email from WP on purchase (additional to the receipt email from Stripe) and keep track of sales in WP admin. This looks like a stable, low conflict option for processing simple Stripe payments. One suggestion: make clear that the Stripe price ID changes when a product is moved from test mode to live. If you’ve tested the shortcodes in Stripe test mode you need to update the price ID in the shortcode when you switch to live mode.
