All of our payment gateways are included in the plugin. Choose from Stripe or PayPal. You can offer multiple gateway options at checkout including PayPal Express or manual and offline payments, like Bank Transfer, Check, and Venmo.
Add members manually, import/export members, require membership approval, and manage membership roles.

Extend functionality with affiliates, page builders, themes, and landing pages.
"Recommended to anyone from beginner to experienced coders. I tried MemberMouse and MemberPress and they both lacked critical features that I wanted for my member site. PMPro has all the features I need (Social Login, ability to gift, multiple membership levels, works with BuddyPress) and more. I can easily customize to make it look great too. If I have questions, which is often since I am a beginner in WordPress and know nothing about coding, they are quick to respond and always find a way for me to do exactly what I want. Super happy. Would recommend to anyone from beginner to experienced coders!" @efsluys 5-star Review

We published a guide on the 4 best WordPress membership plugins. You can read this guide to help you decide if Paid Memberships Pro is the right solution for you.
No, Paid Memberships Pro does not require any coding knowledge. The plugin is designed to meet all levels of WordPress experience. At the same time, our plugin is very developer-friendly and extendible.
Yes. PMPro will work with any properly coded theme. However, some themes may cause conflicts with the plugin. If you find a styling issue with your theme please create a post in the community forum.
Absolutely. We have a complete guide on using a caching plugin or your host's caching methods with Paid Memberships Pro on our website if you want to explore this topic more.
PMPro does not restrict access to the wp-login.php page when active. This allows your administrator users to leverage advanced security plugins, like Two-Factor and more, so that you can keep your membership site secure. We do include a frontend login page for your members to use for logging in and resetting their password.
"Supporting multisite" means different things to different people. This guide covers the three primary ways you can use Paid Memberships Pro in a network.
Out of the box PMPro will basically act as a stand alone plugin for each site. Each site has its own list of membership levels, members, payment settings, etc.
Our Member Network Sites Add On allows members to choose a site name and title at checkout and will set up a network site at checkout.
Our Multisite Membership Add On allows you to manage memberships at the 'Main' Network site and provide or restrict access on other Network Subsites.
If you would like more help using PMPro on a network install, reach our via our contact page.
Please visit our support site for more documentation and ways to get support.
Please reach out using our contact form and we'll fix it right away. Thanks for helping.
Not sure? You can find out by doing a bit a research.
The PMPro v3.0 release will make irreversible changes to the structure of your membership site data. Please back up your database and ensure that all PMPro Add Ons are up to date before upgrading. For more information, please visit https://www.paidmembershipspro.com/pmpro-update-3-0/.
