Make test purchases

While your Memberful account is in test mode, you can use Stripe’s test credit cards to complete example member purchases and recreate their onboarding experience. This is a great opportunity for you to test your setup before going live, experiencing your platform from your member’s perspective, and addressing any issues along the way.

Using test credit cards

Once you’ve created your Memberful purchase plan links, use Stripe’s test credit cards to simulate a member checkout. You can use any of the card numbers below with any expiration date, name, CVC, and zip / postal code. Check here to simulate a successful payment for other billing countries.

• United States: 4242 4242 4242 4242
• Canada: 4000 0012 4000 0000
• United Kingdom: 4000 0082 6000 0000
• Australia: 4000 0003 6000 0006
• Japan: 4000 0039 2000 0003

You may receive invoices for test purchases while in test mode. Keep in mind that these are not actual charges.

Make sure you sign up with a different email address than the one you use for your Memberful or WordPress admin accounts. If you're using Gmail, you can use the + sign with your existing email address to create additional test email address (e.g. [email protected]).

Making test purchases after connecting to Stripe

Once you've connected to Stripe you'll no longer be in Test mode and any transactions will generate real charges. Having said that, you can still make test purchases by creating a recurring coupon for 100% discount.

Alternatively, you can use our Visual Editor via the Customize tab to see which features are customizable, how they interact, and what they’ll look like to your members across different views and devices.
