You have the plugin.
Now get the results.
Pro unlocks 50+ extensions, Subscriber Insights, and personal support — everything the free plugin can’t give you. Your Publisher Flywheel starts here.
You installed the plugin. Now you need the rest: the extensions that unlock real revenue models, the analytics that show you what’s working, and the support to make it happen faster.
That’s what Pro is for.
The sequence most publishers get backwards
Engage — Build your registered audience first
Use List Builder to capture emails via registration wall. Registered readers convert 16× better than anonymous visitors — same content, same month.
Nurture — Bring them back with email
Your newsletter is the bridge between free and paid. Publishers hitting 51% open rates aren’t just sending content — they’re making email the product.
Convert — Turn readers into paying subscribers
Pro’s dynamic messaging, multiple subscription levels, trials, and coupons give you the tools to close the deal at the right moment.
Optimize — Use data to keep growing
Subscriber Insights shows which content converts and where readers drop off — so you can double down on what works.
Most paywalls push too hard, too fast
SaaS competitors default to aggressive monetization from the first article. The Flywheel builds trust first — and converts at higher rates because readers already see the value before they’re asked to pay.
When you upgrade to Pro, we’ll work with you over Zoom to set up your Flywheel from the ground up — registration wall, subscription levels, paywall messaging, and email sequence — so everything connects.
Learn about Your Publisher Flywheel →Pro gives you the full toolkit
The free plugin gets you started. Pro gets you to a real subscription business.
50+ Pro Extensions
Corporate subscriptions, gift subscriptions, trial delays, coupons, pay-per-article, premium newsletters, and dozens more — all unlocked with a single Pro license.
New Revenue Streams
Go beyond the basic subscription. Add an ad-free pass, pay-per-article access, paid newsletters, or corporate and group subscriptions — each one a new line of revenue that doesn’t require more content.
Subscriber Insights
See which articles convert readers into subscribers, where they drop off, and what content earns its spot behind the paywall. Built for publishers, not data scientists.
Smarter Paywall Control
Target subscription messages by content category, article count, and subscriber status. IP-based hardening stops readers from bypassing your meter with incognito mode.
Flowletter Integration
Subscribers auto-login from every email click — no passwords, no friction, no support tickets. Pair that with full newsletter automation built right into WordPress. Paid upgrade.
Personal Setup Support
Work with our team over Zoom to configure your paywall right. We’ve helped hundreds of publishers — you’re not starting from scratch.
Data is useless. Actions aren’t.
Insights tells you what to do next — free readers ready to upgrade, quiet paid subs who need a nudge, failed payments before the revenue walks out the door.
