AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Simple Payment is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 3 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +High average rating (5.0★) signals consistent merchant satisfaction
- +Published by Ido Kobelkowsky — established developer track record
Cons
- −Limited review base (3) — ratings can shift significantly with new feedback

How Simple Payment works
Show full descriptionShow less
Selling something shouldn’t require a full shopping cart. Simple Payment turns any WordPress post, page, block, form or button into a ready-to-pay product or service in minutes — and routes the money through the payment gateway you already trust. No bloated store to configure, no checkout to rebuild: just a shortcode (or a block, or an Elementor widget) and you are taking payments.
From a single “Donate” button to installment plans, saved cards, subscriptions and multi-gateway checkouts, Simple Payment scales from a personal blog to a commercial site — while keeping sensitive card data out of your database.
Why you’ll love it
Sell in minutes, not days. Drop one shortcode on any page and you have a working, styled payment form. Post/page titles become the product name and a custom field becomes the price — automatically.
Use the gateway you already have. One consistent form and workflow in front of many gateways — switch providers without rebuilding your pages.
Built for real money flows. Installments, monthly subscriptions / recurring, saved-card tokenization, refunds, invoices/receipts, and automatic transaction verification.
Beautiful, flexible forms. Multiple templates (Bootstrap, Legacy, Donation, free-amount), inline, IFRAME or modal display, and full support for your own theme templates.
Privacy first. PCI-DSS friendly: card data is masked/redacted before anything touches the database, and old records can be auto-archived and purged.
Developer friendly. A rich set of actions and filters, a documented Engine API to extend any gateway or build your own, plus a full transactions log with filtering and CSV export.
Supported payment gateways (Engines) PayPal, Cardcom, iCount, PayMe, iCredit, CreditGuard, Meshulam, YaadPay, Credit2000, WooCommerce (third-party site), plus a Custom engine for anything else and a Test engine for development.
NEW: Sell on one site, charge on another (WooCommerce engine) The WooCommerce engine lets your site take a purchase and hand the actual payment off to a separate, third-party WooCommerce store over its REST API — perfect for agencies, marketplaces, franchises and multi-brand operators who want a central “storefront” and one billing store that owns the gateways, invoices and bookkeeping.
The customer clicks Buy on your site; Simple Payment creates the order on the remote WooCommerce store with the correct total and customer details.
The shopper pays on the remote store (in a redirect, popup or modal) using whatever gateways that store has enabled.
A bundled Companion mode on the receiving store validates and keeps the originating parameters, can auto-complete paid orders, silences the remote store’s duplicate customer/admin emails for outsourced requests, and sends the customer straight back to your site when payment succeeds.
You keep a full record of every transaction on the originating site, with automatic status verification.
Works with your favorite tools Gutenberg block editor, Elementor, WooCommerce, WPJobBoard, GravityForms and Form Maker — plus Zapier to trigger workflows (CRM, email, spreadsheets, fulfilment) on every payment.
