Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records TrustLane Manual Gateways version 1.1.0 as active, updated 1mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
Many online store categories (research chemicals, peptides, supplements, and other high-risk niches) get instantly rejected or banned by automated payment processors such as PayPal, Stripe, Klarna, or Affirm. TrustLane Manual Gateways solves this by adding four independently configurable manual/offline payment methods to your store’s checkout, with no bannable API connection involved.
Key Features
Four separate payment methods you can enable individually: Venmo (Manual), PayPal (Friends & Family), Cash App / Zelle, and Direct Invoicing / Phone.
Per-method settings: custom title, description, account identifier (handle/email/phone), a bold warning notice, payment instructions, custom field label, and an optional icon.
Mandatory reference field at checkout (e.g. “Sender Username / Transaction ID”) with server-side validation — orders can’t be placed without it.
Automatic order holding: orders are placed on “On hold” status until you manually verify the payment, instead of jumping straight to Processing.
Instant admin verification: the customer’s submitted reference and chosen method are shown directly on the order screen and in a dedicated Orders list column.
Automatic customer communication: payment instructions are shown on the Thank You page and appended to the On-hold and Processing order emails.
Polished checkout UI: card-style payment method selection with clean styling, scoped only to the checkout page.
Built for compatibility: works with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) and the block-based cart/checkout, and is coded to avoid conflicts with themes, Elementor, or other plugins.
Who is this for?
Store owners in high-risk verticals who need a reliable, review-proof way to collect payments manually while still giving customers a smooth, guided checkout experience.
