Paid Memberships Pro gives you all the tools you need to start, manage, and grow your membership site.
Secure your pages, posts, blocks, and categories. You can show an excerpt, “sneak peak” or other partial content for non-members or choose to completely hide restricted content. Set a custom message to show to users or visitors when they attempt to access protected content.
Secure various additional content (forums, products, events, courses, videos, downloads and any CPT).
Allow members to purchase individual content, sell one-time access, or allow a single category purchase for a flat price.
Allow members to drip feed access to a series of content according to a schedule based on their membership level start date.
Offer each member a unique page for direct communication. Design custom member homepages by level and adjust navigation menus to highlight important links for each membership level.
Allow users to browse and search public or members-only directories for a robust community or listings site.
Sell sites on the network or secure content across your network with a single user login.
Create a complete membership offering with unique pricing and content access for each level. Members can hold one or more member levels at a time.
Offer individual or organizational memberships with child accounts linked to a paying parent account.
View a report of all members and filter or sort by level, start date, expiration, and more.
Capture custom profile information by membership level for public or admin-only display. Fields are stored as WordPress user meta.
Customize the content and design of every message sent to members, including membership confirmation, payment invoices, and expiration notices.
Link a membership level to a core WordPress role or create a new role and define custom capabilities based on your membership features.
Set up a membership site to accept applications and process dues for an offline community, like a networking group, homeowners association, or other local organization.
Process recurring payments and create an order for each successful payment made. Failed payments will retry and cancel according to your settings and membership status.
Integrate with Stripe, PayPal, Authorize.net, Braintree, 2Checkout, or offline payments (check). Or, use WooCommerce to purchase a level as a product.
Allow members to choose their payment method, whether it be a secure payment by credit card, offsite payment with PayPal or payment by check or bank transfer (manual).
Offer free or reduced price trial periods. Require a payment method for free trial that automatically converts to a paid membership after a specific timeframe, or offer a trial period that differs from your recurring billing period.
Offer rolling membership or force all memberships to renew on a specific day of the month or year.
View all orders for new and recurring payments. Filter orders by status, date, membership level, discount code and more.

Offer discounts on membership, run a timed sitewide sale, share goal progress bars, and track the success of your membership promotions.
Proration scripts allow you to offer standard proration rules or leverage extensive filter hooks to write your own custom proration rules. This guide on pausing memberships explores options depending on your pausing requirements.
Know exactly how well your membership site is doing with up to date sales and revenue reports. Filter the Sales or Revenue report by membership level and time period (day, month, and year), and compare data to the “average” trendline for the filtered view.
View membership signups, expirations, and cancellations by day, month, or year. Compare signups to cancellations or expirations.

Perform an initial import of your complete member database and maintain your data as a single point of truth. Membership information can be exported to use in spreadsheets, custom reports, CRM tools, for periodic mailings, and more.
Restrict membership level signup and require an admin to approve a member. Levels can require an application and charge a fee, or offer a free application to unlock the premium (paid) access.

Members can view their active membership, past invoices, update their subscription payment method, change levels, or cancel their account.
