Reducing the amount of steps and pages customers have to go to will make the process much quicker and simpler for them. They’ll feel like they’re not giving you as much info (even if they are), which will make them much more comfortable in completing the transaction.

The extension is free to install, so why not give it a go and see if it makes a difference to your conversions?
