Scope
What this service covers.
A membership site is easy to demo and hard to run. The difficulty is in the edge cases: tiered plans, paid content gating, drip schedules, group and corporate seats, mid-cycle upgrades with proration, automatic renewals, and dunning when a card fails. We build subscription logic that stays correct as members move between plans, rather than a happy-path flow that breaks the first time someone downgrades.
Content gating and drip
Paid content gating, drip schedules, and previews, whether the content lives in WordPress, a headless CMS, or your app.
Renewals, proration, and plan changes
Automatic renewals, mid-cycle upgrades and downgrades with proration, trials, and cancellations that keep billing and access in step.
Group and corporate seats
Team accounts, seat management, and admin roles for organisations buying access on behalf of their members.
Dunning and churn recovery
Failed-payment retries, card-update prompts, and grace periods to recover involuntary churn before access is revoked.
Reliable billing integration
Stripe wired in through idempotent, reconciled webhooks so entitlements, invoices, and reporting never drift apart.

Common questions
Planning the work.
01Do you build on an existing membership plugin or something custom?+
Both. For WordPress we often build on MemberPress, Restrict Content Pro, or WooCommerce Subscriptions when they cover the model well. When the requirements are genuinely bespoke, such as hybrid pricing, complex entitlements, or corporate seats, we build a custom membership engine with a Stripe-direct integration. We choose based on the product, not a default.
02Can you handle corporate or group memberships with multiple seats?+
Yes. We model organisations as first-class accounts with seat pools, admin roles, and per-seat access, so a company can buy in bulk and manage its own members. Billing is handled at the organisation level with the same proration and renewal logic as individual plans.
03What happens when a member's payment fails?+
We wire in dunning: smart retries, customer-facing prompts to update the card, and a configurable grace period before access is revoked. Because entitlements are reconciled against Stripe through idempotent webhooks, access reflects real billing status rather than drifting out of sync.
