Help finding a Wordpress plugin to paywall some content
February 18, 2023 8:04 PM
I need help finding a WordPress plugin that will allow me to put some of my content behind a paywall.
I have a WordPress site set up through my web hosting provider. I would like to find a plugin that will allow me to put some content behind a paywall. I tried to search for plugins, but the few I found charged hundreds of dollars per month. I'm hoping there might be something more affordable. I'm basically looking for a plugin that will allow a user the option to either a) purchase access to a single post on a "pay what you want" basis and b) purchase a monthly subscription that will give access to all posts. Is there something like that that's not too expensive?

Hi! I work on a WordPress plugin.
Unfortunately as you've found the idea of "paywalling" in WP is tied up with the concept of broader membership, and membership plugins tend to be quite feature-rich which means they're expensive. Restrict Content Pro is cheaper than most at $99/year and looks like it might be a good fit.
