76 Quality Score
Active Installs
14/30

At roughly 1,000 active installs it is a niche plugin, not a household name, but the popularity score is inflated relative to raw install numbers because of strong relevance within its target vertical.

Update Freshness
25/25

The plugin was updated very recently, in May 2026, and the maintenance score is maxed out, indicating an actively maintained codebase.

User Rating
15/15

Every one of the 65 ratings pushed the score to a perfect 100, which is encouraging but based on a small sample size that is easy to skew.

Support Health
8/15

With only one support thread and zero resolutions, the support score lands at a middling 50, signalling that there is not enough public data to judge how the developer handles real-world issues.

WP Compatibility
15/15

Compatibility is maxed out: it declares support for WordPress 7.0 and requires PHP 7.4 or higher, so it will run cleanly on current stacks.

What It Does

Kikote adds a Google Maps location picker to the WooCommerce checkout page, letting customers drop a pin for delivery or pickup rather than typing a street address. It also auto-fills address fields using Google's geolocation data, and ties the chosen coordinates to shipping workflows so store owners can price and route orders based on the selected spot.

Who It's For

This plugin is built for WooCommerce stores that ship from multiple locations, offer local delivery or pickup, or run any kind of last-mile delivery operation where the exact drop-off point matters more than a postal address. Food delivery, courier services, regional grocers, and pickup point networks will get the most out of it.

Who Should Skip It

If you run a standard online store that ships nationwide via carriers like UPS or FedEx, or if every customer already knows their shipping address, this plugin adds friction and Google Maps API costs you do not need. Pure digital goods sellers and simple flat-rate shipping shops should skip it entirely.

The Bottom Line

Kikote solves a real problem for delivery-heavy WooCommerce stores and scores a respectable 75.93 overall, buoyed by perfect maintenance and ratings scores. The weak support history and small install base mean you should test it on a staging site first and budget for Google Maps API fees. If interactive checkout maps fit your model, it is worth a serious look; if not, the alternatives above will serve a broader audience better.
