This is pure shit. I am lifetime user when it was still "festingervault". Back then not just they create useless features "upgrade", it was and it is not worth at all. When I asked for refund on BHW, that guy ignored me, use few smurf account to "backup" him and then report my BHW account breaking the rules until I get banned to shut me down. Now, this grootshit spamming their "marketing" email building hype that no want ever want the whole type. F annoying and disgusting.

Having discovered their previous solution, Festinger Vault, I decided to stick around and follow their new adventure. I must say they are carrying on with a lot of panache and great energy! The current platform feels significantly more efficient, faster, and better performing. As a customer, seeing a product continuously evolve and improve like this is exactly what you expect.

Good service
Great plugins and themes, all work great.

I’ve had a very positive experience with GrootMade. What stands out most is how thoughtfully the platform is designed around real WordPress development workflows.

The interface feels modern and responsive, and it’s clear that a lot of attention has gone into usability. Managing themes and plugins through a single, well-organized dashboard removes a significant amount of friction compared to juggling multiple vendors and accounts.

Performance has been consistently strong, and everything I’ve used has behaved reliably in practice. I also appreciate the ability to quickly explore, test, and evaluate different tools without interrupting momentum. That alone has saved me a considerable amount of time.

Another highlight is how the platform brings structure and efficiency to working with GPL-licensed resources. Instead of scattered downloads and manual processes, everything is centralized, easy to access, and kept up to date in a way that supports real development work.

Overall, GrootMade provides a streamlined, high-quality experience that makes WordPress development faster, more flexible, and more practical. I would confidently recommend it to others working in this space.

I have been using Grootmade (in old avtars) since 2021, the service is unmatchable and provides best value for money. They have always been quickest with support, and updates, none other service can match their quality and standards, as I have been active in the field for almost 2 decades, so I am totally in love with their offerings.

Just perfect to try a plugin before buying it

They took me for the lifetime subscription and never activated my subscription. It's a sorry state of affairs. Please do not give these scammers any of your hard earned money. Lowlifes.

Site does what's intended to do. Themes, plugins and almost everything you need for your web building experience at one place for an affordable price.

Haven't experienced with GrootMade, but FestingerVault was great. plugins and extensions for Wordpress was great to use.

They have been a long time and very reliable provider of WordPress plugins. I’ve been a customer for a very long time and I’ve had no issues. If you have any questions or need any support, they respond very quickly. It’s overall an amazing service!

I recently became a member of GrootMade, and I can't express how much it has positively impacted my experience. The support and resources available have been incredibly helpful, making it easy to navigate challenges and find solutions. The community is welcoming, and the experts behind GrootMade are knowledgeable and responsive. I highly recommend GrootMade to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive platform. It’s truly made a difference for me!

They revoked the lifetime membership I paid for, and will only restore it if I write a review. Grootmade is a scam and potentially engaging in illegal activity by denying paying customers access to their service.

I am very satisfied with their service and wish them continued success.

Great service with lots of items updated constantly. Options to have updates automatically and WordPress dashboard integration. 5 Star.

For me, this plugin is the absolute best for my websites! It lets me build websites like a true pro! Thanks so much!

GrootMade is a great solution if you want access to a wide variety of plugins and themes.

I’ve been using GrootMade themes and plugins for some time now, and I’m genuinely happy with my experience. The products are reliable, well-built, and perform exactly as described. On the few occasions I needed support, the team was responsive, friendly, and professional. Overall, GrootMade has provided a smooth and positive experience, and I would confidently recommend their themes and plugins to others.

I’ve been a customer since around 2023, back when they were operating under their previous brand. The plugins have always been useful, well-made, and good value for the price. Although the company has gone through some changes, it’s good to see them continuing as Grootmade.

I also appreciate the team for helping me resolve a recent issue with my account. The support was helpful.

I’ve been using Grootmade for my WordPress development work and it’s been a really useful resource.

When I’m building sites for clients, I’m often testing different plugins, themes, or tools to see what’s going to be the best fit. Grootmade makes that process much easier because I can find a lot of what I need in one place, try things out, and keep the project moving without spending ages searching around.

One thing I’ve also really appreciated is the support. Any time I’ve had a question or needed a hand, they’ve been quick to respond and easy to deal with. That’s a big thing for me, especially when I’m working on client sites and need things sorted properly.

Overall, Grootmade has saved me time and made my WordPress workflow easier. I’m really happy with it and would happily recommend it to other WordPress developers.

I purchased a GrootMade Lifetime license on March 27/28, 2026, which was supposed to be a one-time payment.

I want to clarify that I was never a FestingerVault member. My purchase and experience were directly with GrootMade.

After buying the Lifetime license, I was charged again for USD 199 on 7th of April without my authorization. I contacted GrootMade several times and asked for proper clarification and refund details, but I did not receive clear information nor did the money arrive.

Because of this, I opened a chargeback with my bank. I received my money back through the chargeback process.

After that, my GrootMade access was removed / reset, meaning I no longer had access to the Lifetime product I had originally purchased. Because of this, I opened another chargeback with my bank. I received my money back again through the chargeback process.

I have proof of everything, including the original purchase, the duplicate charge, email communication, the chargeback process, and the removal of my access.

I also reported the matter to Stripe, to the Dutch ACM / Authority for Consumers & Markets, and to the FIOD through their online fraud reporting form. In addition, I contacted the Dutch police by email regarding the situation.

Based on my experience, I cannot recommend GrootMade.

In my view, this situation raises serious concerns under Dutch consumer protection rules regarding unfair commercial practices and misleading online sales. I paid for a one-time Lifetime license, was charged again, and later lost access to the originally purchased product. I have retained full evidence and am prepared to provide it to Trustpilot, my bank, Stripe, ACM, FIOD, the Dutch police, and any competent legal authority if required.

UPDATE: After I reached out to them, my domain was subsequently banned/blocked by their system, which now prevents me from contacting them or receiving any response from their side. I also have proof/documentation confirming this.
