The MemberPress Migration Toolkit Add On is a guided wizard that runs inside your WordPress admin and walks you through moving an existing MemberPress site to Paid Memberships Pro, one step at a time, with clear summaries of what will and won’t be migrated at each stage. No SQL queries, no CSV exports to massage by hand.

The migration runs in the background using Action Scheduler, so large sites can process thousands of members and transactions without timing out. And when your MemberPress site is using Stripe, the toolkit can optionally preserve your active subscriptions during the move. Your members keep paying without interruption.

When to Use This Add On

• You’re moving a live MemberPress site to Paid Memberships Pro and want to preserve your members, levels, and order history.
• You’re using Stripe and want your active subscriptions to keep billing through PMPro without interruption.
• You manage a large site with thousands of members and need a background-processing migration that won’t time out.
• You’re evaluating a switch and want a clear, honest picture of what migrates automatically and what needs follow-up.

How the Migration Works

After installing and activating the Add On alongside Paid Memberships Pro on your existing MemberPress site, you’ll find a new Memberships > MemberPress Migration Toolkit page in your WordPress admin. The wizard walks you through six steps:

1. Activate Your PMPro License: Optional. Connect your PMPro license to install premium Add Ons that replace MemberPress features not covered by the core migration (Custom Post Type restrictions, Drip Content, VAT, and more).
2. Migrate Membership Levels: Convert your MemberPress products into PMPro levels. Use the one-click “Migrate All Levels” button or manually map each MemberPress level to an existing or new PMPro level. MemberPress level groups become PMPro level groups.
3. Migrate Users and Orders: Convert MemberPress transactions into PMPro orders, assign membership levels based on your level map, and preserve membership start and end dates. Optionally migrate Stripe subscriptions so active billing continues uninterrupted.
4. Migrate Content Restrictions: Move membership-based content rules from MemberPress to PMPro for single pages, single posts, all posts, all pages, parent pages with children, and category or tag restrictions.
5. Migrate Other Settings: Create your PMPro membership pages (Account, Billing, Cancel, Checkout, Confirmation, Orders, Levels, Login, Profile), apply your currency and business address, and migrate compatible custom user field configuration.
6. Final Steps: A post-migration checklist for verifying levels, members, orders, the checkout process, email templates, and recommended Add Ons to install.
