Paid Memberships Pro Auto-Renewal Checkbox

The Auto-Renewal Checkbox Add On for Paid Memberships Pro adds a field to the Membership Checkout page so members can choose between a fixed-term membership and automatic recurring payments. If a member selects automatic renewals, PMPro sets up a subscription at the gateway and bills them on a recurring basis; if not, the membership expires after one billing cycle. Site owners control this per membership level through an Auto-Renewal Settings option.

Key Features

• Checkout Renewal Choice – Members see a field at checkout where they decide between automatic recurring payments and a single payment for a fixed term.
• Gateway Subscription Setup – When a member opts in, Paid Memberships Pro creates a subscription at the payment gateway and bills on a recurring schedule.
• Expiration When Opted Out – Members who do not choose automatic renewals have their membership expire after one billing cycle period.
• Renewal Extension Logic – When a member renews a fixed-term membership and chooses automatic payments, the add-on extends the membership based on the current expiration date.
• Checkout Preview – You can open the membership checkout page for a level to see how the automatic renewal field displays before going live.

Who Is It For

This add-on is for site owners running membership sites on Paid Memberships Pro who want a single membership level to offer members a choice between automatic recurring billing and a one-time payment for a fixed term. It suits stores that need clear, member-facing renewal options at checkout.
