Paid Memberships Pro
Bitcoin Payments for Paid Memberships Pro — Instant, Global, Reliable
Accept Bitcoin and Lightning payments for memberships, subscriptions, and premium content with a simple Coinsnap integration.
Paid Memberships Pro (PMP) is one of the leading WordPress membership platforms, powering subscription-based websites, online communities, digital clubs, course sites, and premium content businesses. With Coinsnap, you can enhance PMP with decentralized payment capabilities — letting users join your membership program using Bitcoin and the Lightning Network.
This gives your website global reach, lower fees, instant settlement, and protection from chargebacks, all without relying on payment gateways like Stripe or PayPal that impose geographic restrictions, account freezes, or high percentage fees.
Coinsnap for Paid Memberships Pro allows you to accept Bitcoin and Lightning payments for subscriptions, membership levels, and premium content — without needing any payment gateways, merchant accounts, or third-party processors.
The integration works by adding a Bitcoin / Lightning payment option directly inside the PMP checkout page. When a user selects a membership level, PMP processes the membership info, then automatically redirects the member to a Coinsnap payment page to complete the Bitcoin or Lightning transaction.
Coinsnap generates a secure invoice, displays a QR code or Lightning payment request, detects the payment, and sends the funds directly to your wallet. Once payment is confirmed, PMP activates the membership instantly.
