Q: Protect content behind membership paywall?
1. Can I protect content behind a membership paywall?
2. If yes, can members manage their own subscriptions with a tier 3 plan (upgrade, downgrade, cancel)?
3. If no, is this functionality on your roadmap? When could I expect to see it?

Jan 7, 2025A: Hi there,
1. We're still building out our content paywall feature.
It would help us a lot if you could answer this -- what kind of content do you want to gate behind the paywall?
2. They can already manage their subscriptions (change plans, update payment info, cancel, etc.) now.
3. Paywalling is a popular request, in fact, it's #1 on our roadmap now:

We're definitely working on this even harder once we clear our existing backlog -- we've been very busy since the new year began, which is a good sign, I suppose!
With thanks,
Jay
To answer your question about the type of content to be protected via paywall, here's a link to my website: conquerwallstreet.com
I'm currently using Outseta to handle digital subscriptions, paywall, and email but would consider switching to Zylvie if you could offer the paywall page protection.
Thanks!
Thanks, what kind of content are you trying to paywall?
Are these PDF downloadables, blog posts with media (or article-like resources), a Slack/Telegram-like update feed, what are they like?
As I look through Outseta's paywall feature, it seems more elaborate than I initially expected, it's like building a whole new product.
Your clarification would help a lot!
With thanks,
Jay
Hi Jay,
Most of the content I paywall includes member-only video analysis of the stock market and data tables containing stock trading signals.
With Outseta I'm able to paywall individual pages on my website. I can then allow access to each page by membership tier. For example, if I have a webpage containing blog articles, I can restrict access to members with a certain membership tier.
Gotcha, we'll start a trial account on Outseta, see what it entails, and take it from there.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
With thanks,
Jay
