AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Paystack WooCommerce Payment Gateway is a highly rated WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the Payment Gateway category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. 25 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.

WooCommerce Subscriptions Integration
The WooCommerce Subscriptions integration only works with WooCommerce v2.6 and above and WooCommerce Subscriptions v2.0 and above.
No subscription plans is created on Paystack. The WooCommerce Subscriptions plugin handles all the subscription functionality.
If a customer pays for a subscription using a Mastercard or Visa card, their subscription will renew automatically throughout the duration of the subscription. If an automatic renewal fail their subscription will be put on-hold and they will have to login to their account to renew the subscription.
For customers paying with a Verve card, their subscription can’t be renewed automatically, once a payment is due their subscription will be on-hold. The customer will have to login to his account to manually renew his subscription.
If a subscription has a free trial and no signup-fee, automatic renewal is not possible for the first payment because the initial order total will be 0, after the free trial the subscription will be put on-hold. The customer will have to login to his account to renew his subscription. If a Mastercard or Visa card is used to renew the subscription subsequent renewals will be automatic throughout the duration of the subscription, if a Verve card is used automatic renewal isn’t possible.
