Memberful

Build a membership that's truly yours.

Visit Memberful

Memberful is a membership platform that lets creators, publishers, and communities sell subscriptions and deliver content on their own website or app. It solves the problem of losing control over audience relationships and brand identity that can happen when using third-party platforms, by keeping checkout, member accounts, and data on the user's own domain.

Key capabilities include branded checkout, subscription management for monthly, annual, or custom plans, and content delivery across newsletters, podcasts, digital downloads, and communities. It offers a deep WordPress plugin, a built-in website builder, and a custom app API. Native integrations connect with email services like Mailchimp and Kit, community platforms like Discord and Discourse, and tools like Zapier, Google Analytics, and LearnDash. The platform uses Stripe for payment processing and includes features like coupons, referral programs, retention discounts, and real-time revenue insights.

Memberful is designed for creators, publishers, and teams who want to own their membership experience. It offers a free trial with no time limit, charging only when going live. The Standard plan includes a monthly fee plus a transaction fee, with unlimited members and staff accounts. Enterprise custom pricing is available for larger needs, with dedicated support and migration assistance.
