Product Description
WooCommerce Memberships adds membership functionality to WooCommerce stores where membership access is granted through product purchases. It restricts content based on membership status, provides tiered member pricing, and controls content availability through time-based dripping schedules.
Membership Plans
Create membership plans that grant access to restricted content. Plans can be linked to product purchases (buying a product grants membership), manually assigned by administrators, or activated through subscription products for recurring membership billing.
Content Restriction
- Posts and pages — restrict individual posts, pages, or entire categories to specific membership plans
- Products — make products viewable or purchasable only by members of certain plans
- Custom post types — extend restrictions to any custom content type registered in WordPress
- Partial content — show teaser content to non-members with membership prompts for full access
Content Dripping
Schedule content availability based on membership start date. Content becomes accessible to members at specified intervals after joining, creating a structured learning or access progression. For example, module 1 on day 1, module 2 on day 7, module 3 on day 14.
Member Pricing
Offer discounted pricing for members on specific products or entire categories. Discounts can be flat amounts or percentages, applied automatically when members are logged in and shopping.
Member Area
A front-end member area shows members their active memberships, accessible content, upcoming dripped content, and membership status. Members can manage their membership details from their WooCommerce account page.
