MemberPress

MemberPress is a WordPress plugin for creating membership sites with gated content, recurring subscriptions, and member-only areas. It integrates with your WordPress site to gate pages and posts, manage subscriber tiers, and provide a member dashboard. The plugin handles payments, drip-feed content, course access, and member communications without needing additional platforms.

Best for bloggers, coaches, and educators who want to keep everything in WordPress and monetize existing audiences through memberships. It's lighter than dedicated LMS platforms but more customizable than single-tenant membership sites. Use MemberPress when you're already invested in WordPress and want membership features without leaving the ecosystem.
