Plugin Description
OVERVIEW
Paywall for anyone from small-time content creators to large publishers
Content creators can focus on what they like to do the most – creating content and get paid for it. That’s why we created an easy-to-use plugin that is connected to everything you need and can be used by anyone without the need for tech support.
Premium access reduced to one button
Your readers can access paid content in one click with zero account creation, nor zero app download for payment. They can Pay-per-post or Subscribe for Premium content using credit cards, mobile payments, and Apple Pay in seconds. No bells and whistles, simple call-to-action buttons that work. We believe that one-click payments will be the universal standard for online services.
Readers can see the content previews before seeing the Zlick button, giving readers the chance to continue reading with one click. Zlick is compatible with all desktop and portable devices, making it accessible from just about anywhere at any time. Try the Zlick Paywall demo and see how it works!
Clean Nordic design with the ultimate ease of use
Your readers see the preview for the content and clean paywall design. Simple choose one-time payment or subscription and fill in only the most essential information. We’ve run hundreds of A/B tests to minimalize the bounce rate and know what works. You can customize the paywall and align it to your brand colors even with basic customization.
Our portal’s design is made for an excellent user experience and ultimate ease of use. Everything is accessible in one portal and as simple as posting content. It’s made for content creators and editors, not your tech team.
Fast-install WordPress plugin with zero setup cost
It takes less than 10 minutes to fully set up and monetize your content. Best of all, you don’t need a tech team for it – anyone can do it with zero setup cost. Simply create an account, connect Zlick with your wp site, and Stripe and you are good to go.
Monetize your content and give access to different levels of content with ease. Control and sell access to all post types, categories, tags, individual articles, in-content sections, audio & video, time-based premium archive content, and premium newsletters. You control everything and can lock down, open up, and change pricing with seconds.
Everything you need is connected to one plugin
You don’t need to mix and match plugins anymore. Zlick features a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system, an in-depth Analytics dashboard, everything you need to manage earnings, and a Marketing Toolkit for growing your customer base.
It’s connected with Stripe to manage payments, transaction receipts are sent automatically, and your earnings report is in the portal. Everything is connected and made fool-proof.

Installing the plugin means you agree with our Terms and Conditions as well as Stripe’s terms of service.
