Hey Gang, hope you are well. Having trouble finding the answer I am looking for with the search feature.
I have a new discourse project that requires a paid subscription model. I currently use memberpress and can’t stand their lack of flexibility.
Does anyone know of any good/modern payment gateway alternatives to memberpress?
Paid subscribers will need to login into WordPress, where they will have access to protected pages with premium content, along with a forum link in the navigation.
I really despise memberpress and their lame checkout page so hoping something better exists.
Thanks for your time.
Gene

Have a look at WooCommerce Subscriptions. In conjunction with WooCommerce Memberships it does recurring billing and content restriction.
But also consider Discourse Subscriptions if Discourse is the main focus of your community.

Your can try the subscription plugin and have discourse be the authentication source. I’m not quite sure how it will enforce things on the WordPress site.
