Paid Memberships Pro Auto-Renewal Checkbox GPL v0.3.3

Paid Memberships Pro Auto-Renewal Checkbox GPL Overview

The Auto-Renewal Checkbox Addon for Paid Memberships Pro (PMPro) enables an optional feature for members to opt-in to automatic renewals at the time of checkout. This provides an easy way for members to ensure their membership renews automatically without needing to manually renew it each billing cycle.

Key Features

1. Opt-In for Auto-Renewals:
   • This addon adds a checkbox on the Membership Checkout page, allowing members to choose whether they want their membership to automatically renew when the subscription period ends.
2. Control Over Renewals:
   • If the member does not select the auto-renewal option, their membership will expire based on the recurring billing cycle set for the membership level. For example, if the membership is $10 per month, the member can either choose to renew automatically each month or pay for just one month.
3. Admin Control:
   • Admins have the ability to enable or disable the auto-renewal option for specific membership levels. This can be adjusted on the Memberships > Settings > Levels > Edit Level page, giving flexibility in how different membership levels handle renewals.
4. Customizable Renewal Settings:
   • You can configure which levels offer auto-renewal options, allowing for greater control over how memberships are managed and billed.

How It Works

1. Checkout Process:
   • During the checkout process, members will see a checkbox that allows them to opt-in for automatic renewals. If they check the box, their membership will automatically renew at the end of each billing cycle.
2. Non-Auto-Renewal Option:
   • If a member does not select the auto-renewal option, their membership will expire after the designated billing period (e.g., after one month, one year, etc.), and they will need to manually renew their membership.
3. Admin Settings:
   • Admins can enable or disable the auto-renewal checkbox for specific membership levels through the PMPro settings page. This allows for more granular control over which levels offer automatic renewals.

Ideal Use Cases

• Recurring Memberships: This addon is perfect for businesses or communities that want to offer members the convenience of automatic renewals without requiring them to manually renew their membership each cycle.
• Flexible Payment Options: If you offer memberships on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis, the auto-renewal option provides flexibility for members to opt-in to automatic payments.
• Managing Membership Levels: Admins can control which membership levels allow auto-renewal, making it ideal for sites that want to offer automatic renewals for certain tiers but not others.

Why Use This Addon?

• Improved Member Experience: By allowing members to opt into auto-renewal, you reduce the likelihood of membership lapses, making it more convenient for users to maintain their memberships.
• Simplified Management: Admins can control which levels support auto-renewals, providing flexibility in how memberships are managed.
• Enhanced Revenue Stability: With automatic renewals, you can ensure more consistent revenue from recurring subscriptions, reducing the need for manual renewals and follow-ups.

Summary

The Paid Memberships Pro Auto-Renewal Checkbox addon streamlines the membership renewal process by allowing members to opt-in to automatic renewals during checkout. Admins have control over which membership levels offer this feature, providing flexibility in how memberships are managed. This addon is perfect for businesses or communities looking to simplify the renewal process for members and ensure more consistent, recurring revenue.
