Overview

myCred is a general-purpose points engine for WordPress rather than a WooCommerce-only loyalty plugin. You create one or more point types, then attach earning “hooks” to activity across the site: registrations, comments, logins, content, referrals, birthdays and WooCommerce orders and product reviews. Ranks, badges, leaderboards, transfers and a statistics screen are bundled as built-in add-ons, so the same balance can drive a community, a course site and a shop at once.

How it works with WooCommerce

The free plugin can reward purchases (including per-product reward values and order-count or order-value hooks), reward product reviews, and register a payment gateway so a customer can pay for an order entirely with points. That gateway is documented as working on the Cart and Checkout blocks. The more typical loyalty behaviour, letting shoppers knock part of the price off with points, needs the paid myCred WooCommerce Plus add-on, which adds partial payments with minimum points and a maximum share of the cart, a points-to-coupon generator, reward messages on product, cart and checkout pages, a points history tab in My Account, product referrals and WooCommerce Subscriptions support.

Free vs paid

The core and its built-in add-ons are free on WordPress.org. Premium add-ons such as WooCommerce Plus, Expiration (points expiry with reminder emails) and Social Share are sold through yearly memberships: Basic ($99), Professional ($149) and Business ($299), with WooCommerce Plus included from Professional upwards.

  • Unlimited point types, ranks and badges
  • Pay-with-points gateway, block checkout compatible
  • Built-in birthday, referral and email notification modules
  • Floating loyalty widget and dozens of blocks

Limitations

Because myCred is built for every kind of site, store-specific setup takes longer than with a dedicated WooCommerce loyalty plugin, and key shop features are spread across several paid add-ons. We could not confirm HPOS compatibility, WooCommerce multi-currency support or time-limited points multipliers from official sources.

Who should pick it: sites that want one points currency across a community, membership or LMS and a WooCommerce store, and are comfortable assembling add-ons. Pure shops wanting a quick checkout discount programme will find more focused options.

Best for: Sites that want a single points system across a community, courses or memberships and a WooCommerce store.

myCred is a capable, flexible points engine with a generous free core, but WooCommerce loyalty is only one of its many jobs. Expect to buy the Professional membership for WooCommerce Plus to get partial redemptions and coupons, and to spend time on setup.

Pros

  • Free core includes ranks, badges, birthday, referral and email modules
  • Pay-with-points gateway works with Cart and Checkout blocks
  • One points balance can span WooCommerce, LMS, membership and community plugins
  • Bulk import and export of balances and logs
  • Large catalogue of paid add-ons and 40+ integrations

Cons

  • Partial points discounts, coupons and My Account history need the paid WooCommerce Plus add-on
  • Points expiry and social sharing rewards are separate paid add-ons
  • Generic gamification design means more configuration for a simple store programme
  • HPOS and multi-currency compatibility not documented

How many sites use myCred?

Free installs from WordPress.org, the vendor's own claim, and our estimate of paid installs.

Free version (WordPress.org) 10K+

Active installations reported by WordPress.org.

Vendor claim 10K+

Sites/users claimed on the vendor's website. source

Estimated Pro / paid installs ~900

Our estimate, see method below.

How we estimated this: The vendor figure (10K+) is within WordPress.org's rounding of the free installs, so it says nothing about paid sites. About 15K free installs x 6% (the usual share of free sites that also run the paid version when most features are free, and store owners upgrade more often) gives 900. Likely range: 450 to 1.8K. This counts sites running the paid version, including sites whose licence has lapsed. Estimates are rough and based on public figures as of 14 Oct 2026.
