What Is MemberPress?

What is the difference between a Membership and a Subscription?
Memberships and subscriptions are two elements of MemberPress. A Membership gives subscribed users access to your protected content. A subscription to membership is created when a user registers for a membership.
How can I upgrade my MemberPress account and only pay the difference?
Upgrading is simple in MemberPress. If you decide you'd like to upgrade from the current version you are on, simply login to MemberPress.com, and go to the Subscriptions tab. Then go to the far right of your Membership and click the Change Plan link.
That will send you to the standard MemberPress purchase page, but the prices you'll see are prorated based on what you've paid already and how long you've had that membership. So, the sooner you upgrade, the more you'll be credited.
How can I cancel my current subscription?
For canceling your current MemberPress subscription you will need to log in to MemberPress.com and go to the Subscriptions tab. Then go to the far right of your Membership and click the Cancel link. You will then be taken through a short survey process. Make sure you complete the process and your subscription status is updated on the Subscriptions tab. Which will stop any future charges from your account.
How do I update my credit card info?
To update your credit card details, you will need to log in to MemberPress.com and go to the Subscriptions tab. Then go to the far right of your Membership and click the Update link. Enter your new credit card details and click the Submit button. That's simple, right 🙂
Is it possible to purchase a MemberPress monthly subscription?
