Memberful integrations to make your life easier

Memberful is committed to helping you create a fantastic membership site as simply as possible. We are the 'glue’ that holds all the separate membership pieces together, so you don’t need to switch services, migrate your audience, or change your workflow. We want to help you engage your community where they are! That’s why we offer many integrations with some of the best and most popular platforms on the internet.

Here’s a quick rundown of Memberful integrations that we hope will make your life a little easier:

Community

Discord

Cost: From Free

Giving Memberful access to the Discord server

Discord allows instant communication via dynamic chat rooms known as servers, and it's optimized for real-time interaction, whether by voice, text, or video. It’s hugely popular for gaming and streamers but has already had success with business communication.

When you integrate Memberful with Discord, you’ll be able to automatically assign individual Discord roles to Memberful Plans, thus automatically granting and revoking access to certain channels.

Discourse

Cost: From $100/month

Discourse is a more traditional discussion forum that is centered around threads. Discussions will be scoped to the thread's subject, and it's suited for asynchronous, thought-out communication rather than real-time conversation. It’s popular for Q&A or help desk-style content and is commonly used by large companies for their FAQs or knowledge base sections.

After you've connected Discourse to Memberful, we'll automatically sync all your active members to all relevant threads, or Groups. If their subscription expires, they will be removed from any private conversations.

bbPress

Cost: From free

bbPress is a discussion forum software and is one of the longest-standing and most popular WordPress plugins of all time; it’s actually built and managed by the creators of WordPress.

When you activate the bbPress plugin, you'll see a new option in your WordPress site that lets you add new forum threads or monitor/edit existing ones. Combine this with the Memberful plugin to create a members-only discussion forum that syncs and removes access once a member’s subscription expires.

Content

The Memberful WP Wordpress plugin

Cost: Free

Setting up Memberful in WordPress

WordPress is the most popular website builder in the world: over 455 million websites use the platform as of 2021, according to Envisage Digital, and that number only continues to grow.

When you combine Memberful’s ability to protect content through our WordPress plugin — otherwise known as gating content — you can easily create a powerful membership experience. You can restrict access to all of your members-only content using the ‘Memberful: Restrict Access’ section found at the bottom of every page and post or via post categories and tags.

Podcasting

Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, Spotify and other popular podcast apps

Cost: Podcast hosting cost

Subscribing to a podcast on a desktop with Memberful

With Memberful you can create a secure, paid podcast for your members using your existing RSS feed. We do not host your podcast files which allows you to continue using your existing podcast hosting/distribution platforms, such as Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Once the Memberful integration is complete, each listener receives their own secure version of your feed; if their subscription expires, access is revoked automatically. We also include built-in security measures while allowing an easy checkout and log in for members.
