Description
Paid Memberships Pro Akismet is an add-on that connects your membership checkout with Akismet's spam detection. When an email is flagged as spam, the registration is blocked and no payment is processed. It works for free registrations and paid checkouts alike.
Key Features
- Spam Email Screening – Submitted email addresses are checked against Akismet's spam filters during membership checkout.
- Blocked Registrations – If a checkout is flagged as spam, the membership registration is stopped completely.
- No Payment Processing – Payments are not processed for email addresses that Akismet flags as spam.
- Free and Paid Levels – The protection applies to free user registrations as well as paid checkouts.
- Uses Akismet Settings – The add-on relies on the configuration already set in the main Akismet plugin, with no extra settings needed.
- Privacy Notice Display – If the Akismet privacy notice option is enabled, that message also appears on the membership checkout page.
Who Is It For
This add-on is for WordPress site owners running Paid Memberships Pro who want to reduce fake signups and card testing on their membership checkouts. It suits communities, course platforms, and subscription services that need spam protection for both free and paid registrations.
