Welcome to the Paid Memberships Pro GitHub Repository
-----------------------------------------------------

[](#welcome-to-the-paid-memberships-pro-github-repository)

[Paid Memberships Pro](https://www.paidmembershipspro.com) gives you all the tools you need to start, manage, and grow your membership site. The plugin is designed for premium content sites, clubs/associations, subscription products, newsletters, and more.

Users can select a membership level, complete checkout, and immediately become members of your site. You decide what content your member can access. Members can log in, view payments, update billing info, or cancel their account directly on your site. [View Screenshots »](https://www.paidmembershipspro.com/features/screenshots/)
