Biggest opportunity: Swap “2checkout payment with paypal” for “2checkout for woocommerce”. “2checkout payment with paypal” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “2checkout for woocommerce” sits at #22 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 10 of 4K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Payments plugin keeps 1.0%, across 1,043 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Payments plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

Directory rank
Ranked about #30,400 to #44,800, alongside the other plugins at 10+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 1 Nov 2026.
Update activity
Downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites.
Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.
Release cadence

This is the best plugin that works exactly as described. Keep up the good work!
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Clickers7.0y ago
Great job guys. This is the only plugin that works as supposed to with proper inline checkout. I solve issue with IPN on my own so I believe that everyting is fine now. Keep up with good work. Cheers! Edited: This is not something that I like to do and I’m not doing things like that. To edit my review, that’s bad. But Vitaly, beside excellent plugin that you made for Alidropship , I just think that you have some responsibilitie for your WP customers/users. Its not a big deal to reply and resolve only one topic per month, nohing more. I was writing to you three times, 7 months ago and 3 and 2 months ago. No reply. It’s not just about me but no one who asked for a help didnt get any response from you. That is not fair and you know that because you know how would you feel to wait to any response 7 months. I’m still using your plugin and I think that you made great plugin, which is probably the best 2Checkout Woocommerce plugin by now. This topic was modified 6 years ago by Clickers. Reason: No response from developer for more then 7 months. Not a single tickets was resolved or replied. And thats not cool
