 * Hi, thank you for your message and please excuse the problem. I took a closer
   look and was able to identify the problem: you are using php version 7.3, where
   typed properties are not supported yet. However, Donation Platform for WooCommerce
   requires a php version >= 7.4. Please excuse that this was incorrectly displayed
   on the plugin page until just now, I have just fixed that.
    I strongly recommend
   you to upgrade to a newer version of php. The support for php 7.3 has already
   expired in December 2021. Accordingly, there will be no more security updates,
   which makes your site more vulnerable.

 * I thought it was problem. I upgrade PHP definitely. Thanks for your quick support.
