LearnPress Paid Memberships Pro Integration

Description

The Paid Memberships Pro addon connects LearnPress to the Paid Memberships Pro membership plugin, allowing course access to be controlled by subscription levels instead of one-time purchases. The integration links each membership level to specific courses, automatically releases content when payment is confirmed, and revokes access as soon as the subscription expires, leveraging PMPro gateways such as Stripe, PayPal, and Authorize.Net for recurring billing.

Key Features

• Course-membership level linking
  Each LearnPress course can be assigned to one or more levels configured in PMPro.
• Support for multiple membership tiers
  Allows creating plans with different course catalogs released according to the purchased level.
• Integration with PMPro gateways
  Uses Stripe, PayPal, Authorize.Net, and other providers configured in the membership plugin.
• Automatic recurring billing
  Periodic renewals keep access active while payment is processed by the chosen gateway.
• Disable one-time course purchases
  Option to force enrollment via subscription only, removing individual course sales.
• Automatic access revocation
  When the membership expires or is canceled, the student loses access to the course without manual intervention.

Benefits of Paid Memberships Pro Integration

• Predictable subscription revenue
  Replaces one-off sales with recurring fees, stabilizing the online school’s cash flow.
• Catalog segmented by plan
  Makes it easy to create basic, intermediate, and premium tracks with the same content already registered in LearnPress.
• Less administrative work
  Automatic enrollment and blocking eliminate the need to manually enroll and unenroll students.
• Leverages PMPro infrastructure
  Reuses existing reports, discounts, and member management already in the membership plugin.

Who Is It For?

• Online schools and e-learning platforms that want to migrate from one-time sales to a subscription model.
• Educational content producers who offer tracks segmented by plan (basic, premium, VIP).
• Corporate training companies that need to control access to courses according to the active contract.
• Membership sites already running on PMPro that want to add complete courses to their benefits package.

For those who already run a membership site on Paid Memberships Pro, this addon opens a natural path to monetize LearnPress courses within the same recurring revenue model. The combination serves digital schools, paid communities, and corporate training operations that need to tie content to an active payment relationship, with all financial management centralized in PMPro and the educational delivery preserved in LearnPress.
