Paid Memberships Pro Variable Pricing Addon GPL v0.4.6

The Paid Memberships Pro Variable Pricing Addon GPL is a powerful tool that allows customers to set their own price when checking out for membership levels on your site. This addon is ideal for businesses or organizations that want to offer flexible pricing models, particularly those that operate on a donation-based or “pay what you want” system.

Key Features:

1. Flexible Pricing Options:
   • Allows members to adjust the price they pay for membership during checkout.
   • Users can enter a custom amount via a text input field, either paying more or less than the suggested price.
2. Pay What You Want Model:
   • Ideal for donation-based sites or businesses that want to let customers decide how much they want to pay for membership.
   • This model encourages flexibility and can attract a wider range of customers by accommodating different financial situations.
3. Override Suggested Pricing:
   • The price entered by the member will override the suggested amount for both the initial payment and any recurring billing amounts.
   • For example, if your suggested price is $10/month, a user can choose to pay $5 or $20 instead, depending on their preference.
4. Customizable Payment Options:
   • The addon gives you control over how much flexibility to offer members, making it easy to set up for different membership levels and pricing strategies.

How It Works:

• User Input for Pricing:
  • During checkout, members are presented with a text input field where they can adjust the price they wish to pay for the membership.
  • The entered amount will be used as the actual payment for both the initial membership fee and any recurring payments.
• Override of Default Pricing:
  • The suggested price (e.g., $10/month) is just a starting point. If a member enters a different amount, that value will be applied to the payment.
  • This gives flexibility to members and allows them to contribute what they feel is appropriate.

Benefits:

• Increased Accessibility:
  • By allowing members to pay what they can afford, you make your membership accessible to a broader audience, including those who might not be able to afford a fixed price.
• Encourages Generosity:
  • The ability to pay more than the suggested amount can encourage members who are willing to contribute more to support the site or organization.
• Customizable Pricing:
  • You can tailor the pricing model to suit different membership levels, making it ideal for organizations or businesses that want to offer flexible pricing structures.
• Ideal for Donation-Based Sites:
  • Perfect for non-profits, charity organizations, or any business that operates on a donation or “pay what you want” model.
