Paid membership

A paid membership with posts only your paying members can read.

What it is

Some writers want a paid tier: a few posts a month for the people who want to support the work. Kōlea does that with one paid level, sold through your own Stripe.

01

One paid level, your Stripe

Set a monthly and a yearly price and your site gets a /members/premium page. Mark any post as premium and only paying members can read it.

  • Premium posts show a teaser to everyone else, the title, the excerpt, and a way to join, in feeds and emails too.

  • Members handle their own billing, through Stripe's billing portal, so card changes and cancellations aren't your job.

  • See which posts converted, and who's active, past due, or cancelling at the end of their period.

The short version

  • Monthly and yearly prices, through your own Stripe account.
  • Make any post members-only, or paying-members-only.
  • Members handle their own billing through Stripe, so you don't have to.
