Paid Memberships Pro Integration with WooCommerce Plugin

The best way to add memberships and members-only discounts in your WooCommerce store.

Sell memberships as a WooCommerce product and set members-only discounts in your ecommerce store. This free plugin integrates Paid Memberships Pro with WooCommerce with three key features:

1. Set Custom Product Pricing Based on Membership Level

Each product in WooCommerce can have unique pricing set for your members only.

When a logged in member views the product page, they will see their custom pricing and be able to purchase your products at this special price.

2. Set a Storewide Discount for Members by Level

Each membership level in Paid Memberships Pro can have a unique global percentage discount for your ecommerce store.

When a logged in member views the product page, they will see their adjusted pricing based on this storewide discount.

3. Sell Membership as a WooCommerce Product

Each product can be assigned as a “Membership Product”. Customers that purchase this product in WooCommerce will be assigned a membership level in Paid Memberships Pro. Using the features of PMPro, you can restrict member access to all types of premium content, courses, and community features.

While Paid Memberships Pro has recurring subscriptions built-in, the default WooCommerce plugin only allows products to have a one-time payment. If you must use this plugin to sell recurring memberships through WooCommerce, you will also need WooCommerce Subscriptions.

Learn more about how to sell memberships using PMPro and WooCommerce and how to set members-only pricing in WooCommerce in our documentation site.
