Let’s be honent! We’re Nepali and we don’t want to spend money on softwares. Why not get a cracked version? — that’s how we think.
You found the Himalayan Bank Payment WordPress plugin in the internet free of cost or with just a little money? Don’t use it. It’s a TRAP!
You’re not getting it for free, they’re stealing your money, your data & more. They hijack the code of the genuine Himalayan Bank Payment API plugin and insert their own merchant programmatically so that whatever merchant you enter in the plugin settings they’re receiving the payment of the orders, not you.
Here are the other reasons you should avoid nulled or cracked version of HBL plugin.
1) You don’t know what else is in the code
Apart from the Himalayan Bank Merchant profile tweaks, there could be dangerous scripts that potentially break your store and even your business. Malicious actors like to add dangerous links for SEO. They could be adding viruses to your site.
Since the genuine Himalayan Bank plugin is licensed under GPL v3, they’re free to modify the code and distribute it. This is the reason they can legally (not morally) put you unsafe.
2) There’s no support
Himalayan Bank payment API integration is not straightforward, and if you’re using genuine HBL payment plugin, I’m always here for you for any kind of help & support. If you’re using a nulled version – you’re not getting support from me.
I’d rather recommend you never activate the nulled plugin in your site and attempt to configure yourself. Even once. Once you activate – you don’t know what might be going behind the scene.
3) You won’t be getting updates
Himalayan Bank tend to make changes in their API and as such it’s important to be up to date else you’re losing your money. If you found the plugin in the internet, and it worked – I bet it won’t in the next few months. That is because Himalayan Bank changes their API and you don’t have a developer to fix that. While the genenuine version of Himalayan Bank plugin makes changes and releases it’s update regularly.
4) You’re stealing the developer’s money
Developers need money to provide continued support & improvements in the plugin. By using the nulled version, you’re stealing their money.
We all earn in some way. Likewise, developing and providing support to the Himalayan Bank WordPress plugin is my work. Let me live.
