Description

The Simple Paid Listings addon conditions the publication of each job on payment in WP Job Manager, integrating Stripe Checkout and PayPal Standard into the submission form so the listing only appears after the gateway confirms the transaction. Designed for those operating a job board who want to monetize each posting, it blocks unpaid listings until the gateway returns a positive response and then releases the public status.
