Is Stripe the only account for Premium posts?
-
I’m from Malaysia, and I’d like to know if Stripe is the only form of subscription or payment gateway for Premium posts? I’m trying to create a site for courses, preparing my content now. Once ready, will want to launch them as paid content for subscribers only on my site. Please help, thank you.

Correct, we currently only offer Stripe as the payment gateway for the Premium Content block.

Thank you very much, macmanx.
Please teach me how to do this.
There will be:
1. One time payment for single courses
2. Year-long subscriptions for unlimited access
3. Selected modules only access depending on choicesHow do I use Stripe on this? With which plug-in for online learning is best to do this? I read a lot of the articles, but cannot make up my mind as I am not familiar with them all. Please help me.

We have some recommendations for this at https://wordpress.com/blog/2020/03/26/move-your-classes-online/

Thank you so much, macmanx.
Would you please also help me to understand about how to get some activation for access to the paid pages, as in, when someone paid for subscription, then only the pages are available to them? Is that auto- or manually tracked? How do I create a landing page for them to have the access? How to identify that they are paid subscribers?

If you want entire pages to only be available for subscribers, you’ll need to use a membership plugin instead. You’d then sell memberships to your site, with some pages only available to logged-in members.

Using membership plugins requires our Business Plan.

Hello, kokkieh,
Means that if I register for a Business Plan (the one with $25 a month, yes?) then only I can allow logged-in members? I saw there’s the “Pay with PayPal”, what’s the difference of that vs Stripe?
Premium doesn’t allow for the logged-in members function?

Hi there,

That is correct.
I saw there’s the “Pay with PayPal”, what’s the difference of that vs Stripe?
Pay With PayPal is a separate block that allows you to add a payment button to any post or page, and immediately start taking credit and debit card payments via PayPal for physical products, digital goods, donations, or in support of your creative work. The key difference is that this block is for single payments, not recurring payments or subscriptions.

If you are selling memberships to your site, that requires the use of a plugin, which the Premium Plan does not provide.

Hello darnelldibbles,
Thank you so much for your replies.
I can’t afford business yet, because I do not know yet on my success.
However, Premium still allows paid content, yes? How does that work? Or not?

Hi there,
The Premium Content block uses Payments to manage subscriptions and is available to all sites with paid WordPress.com plans. So, you can do Personal or Premium and be able to use the block:
