WordPress Membership Plugin
That Lets You Launch
A Membership Site
In 20 Minutes

... And Start Earning Recurring Monthly Profits
From Your Existing WordPress Blog
(absolutely NO code change required)

So what exactly do you need to launch a membership site?

1) Well, you need a web site, of course :-). Actually, all you really need for a web site, is a WordPress blog. There are web hosts that let you set up a WordPress blog with just one click, and 10 minutes later, you get an email saying that your blog is ready! It's that easy. No technical knowledge required.

2) Once you have a WordPress blog, all you need is membership plugin like Digital Access Pass to protect your blog posts and automatically handle recurring subscription payments, notifying members about available content, cancellations, etc.

That's it!

You could be launching a full-blown membership site with your wordpress blog, using just your existing content, within the next 20 minutes!

Digital Access Pass is a Membership Plugin that was "Made for WordPress".

Unsolicited Review From
SpaceVidcast.com

"The big plugin in the industry is <competitor> and going in to this project I thought it would be the product I would end up with.

Boy was I wrong.

Other people rant and rave about their support, but in my experience I found them to be the slowest in responding, when they did respond the answer was wrong and even after I asked for a refund I don’t think I ever got it.

<Competitor> does drip products / marketing very, very poorly.

Worst of all you have to go off-site, create an account with a third party and hope you don’t lose your customer in the process.

No on-site credit card processing (no matter what their support team says).

<Competitor> does a great job of marketing themselves, but maybe if they spent a little less time making videos and a little more time adding features to keep up with DAP we would have gone down that road for Spacevidcast instead.

After a week long trial with each the clear winner was DAP.

....

So what did we do in the end?

When it was all said and done I actually purchased three plugins to get just the right ones to fit our needs: Suma Plugin, Wishlist Member and Digital Access Pass.

The final plugin we went with was Digital Access Pass.

Why? Because it does nearly everything on my features list and no other plugin comes even close!"

A quick look at some of the features...

 

Features
DigitalAccessPass
Made For WordPress: Works with WordPress like a dream!
check
Works on Non-WordPress Sites too (plain PHP/HTML web sites)
check
Sequential Content Delivery: We invented "Content Dripping"! This is where you can drip content little-by-little over time.
check
ContentResponder with Tru-Drip: Make individual pieces of Content drip, little by little, exactly on the day you want - just like an email autoresponder drips emails. Set a blog post or a file or a video to drip on Day #1, Day #7, Day #31, etc. Or you can set it to drip on a specific date - like 12/31/2010).

Only DAP has Tru-Drip
which can save you an extraordinary amount of time setting up content dripping over a longer duration - like say, over a year (or even when setting up dripping for even a few months ahead of time).
Drip-Feed all types of Content: DAP is the only membership plugin available, that lets you drip WordPress (WP) Pages, WP Posts, WP Categories, HTML pages, PDF reports, Videos, Audio files, Zip files, even Images! Drip just about any kind of file with any type of extension.
check
Built-in File & Download Protection: Protect regular files like .mp3, .zip, .flv, .zip, .exe. .pdf, .doc. .xls, .mpeg. .swf, .js. Even protect Images (.gif, .jpg, .png).
check

True Download Protector. Can protect files anywhere on your web site - both within and outside the WordPress folders. And protects the original source files wherever they are located. No "fake" protection scheme by simply trying to "hide" the location of the file.

You will not need another download protector ever again.

new Built-in, free integration with Amazon SES. Save hefty monthly fees because you don't really need an email service like Aweber or GetResponse.
check
new Built-in, FREE Shopping Cart with On-Site Credit Card Processing for Authorize.net and Paypal Website Payments Pro. Your customer never again has to leave your web site and go to a 3rd party site just to make a payment. Everything happens right within a page on your web site. And you don't even need to sign up for a third-party shopping cart just for accepting payments via Authorize.net or PWPP.
check
new The DAP Shopping Cart also has support for Coupon Codes for Paypal Standard and Authorize.net. Also allows you to do Dime Sales. Also has built-in support for a whole range of other carts and payment processors like ClickBank, e-Junkie, Paypal Standard (Business & Premier) and more.
check
new Dime Sales: Basically, a "Dime Sale" is where you configure the price to go up every "X" number of sales (you can choose what "X" is). We've taken this one step further, and allowed you to hike up the price every "Y" days too! And of course, the price hike is not restricted to just "dimes" (10 cents).
check
new Built-in, FREE 1-Click Upsells for Authorize.net and Paypal Website Payments Pro. Also do Upsells with Paypal Standard using our separately-sold premium plugin, "Upsell-Tree for Paypal Standard"
check
Secure RSS Feeds: DAP makes your RSS feed secure, and protects them such that only members can access them. Each member gets their own special "Feed Key", and your entire RSS feed will change depending on who's viewing it, and how much content has been released to them so far. And the one really cool feature that is exclusive to DAP, is the built-in Feed-sharing protection even for your RSS feeds. If your members try to share their feed key with others, then their account will get LOCKED after a certain number of hits (you can specify how many is too many!)

Internationalization Features: You can customize DAP's member-facing pages (like login form, user profile, "my content" and affiliate page) to any international, non-English language that supports UTF-8 based characters. And DAP is the only membership plugin in the industry that allows you to send non-English broadcast and autoresponder emails! DAP has been successfully tested on sites in French, Italian, Spanish, Danish, Chinese, Japanese, Thai, and many more that we're probably not even aware of.
check
Features
DigitalAccessPass
Automated Cancellations Across All Payment Processors: When someone cancels their subscription, you don't have to do lift a finger - it's all taken care for you.. No need to do any administrative tasks to make sure that the canceling member doesn't get any further content going forward. DAP automatically takes care of subscription cancellations.
check
new Process Offline Orders: Accept payments offline - using even payment processors that DAP doesn't support. Even accept payments in the mail by check. And with just one click, enter the offline payment into the system. This not only allows DAP to give you more accurate reports about your earnings, but it also enables affiliates to get paid for offline purchases.

So if an affiliate referred a buyer to your web site, and the buyer ends up paying offline, then normally, you would never know that they were referred by an affiliate. Not so with DAP. After you enter the manual order, the cookie that is still on the buyer's computer then triggers the correct affiliate credit the next time they log in to your membership site.

check
A Member can purchase Multiple Recurring & Non-Recurring Products: One member can purchase access to multiple one-time products and recurring-subscription products - either at the same time or at different times.
check
Built-in Email Autoresponder: Ability to drip Emails. Integrated Email Autoresponder can send pre-scheduled emails to all users. Set up different autoresponder series for different products. No need for a 3rd party service like Aweber or GetResponse.
check
Integration with Aweber
check
Integration with GetResponse
check
Integration with 1ShoppingCart's Autoresponder
check
Integration with AutoResponse Plus
check
Integration with MailChimp
check
Email & Job Queue: Having a job-queue is the only way to scale in size as your membership site grows to thousands of members, and as you start sending out tens of thousands of emails and your blog grows to thousands of blog posts.

If a membership plugin doesn't require you to setup a "Cron Job", then it means your software cannot handle sending out a large number of emails from your server if your membership site grows to be a few thousand in size. Actually, without a cron job, your plugin can't even send out emails to a few hundred members without timing out and failing half way through!
check
Throttling of Broadcast & Autoresponder Email: To make sure that you don't exceed your web host's hourly email-sending limits.
check
Features
DigitalAccessPass
1-Click Upsells/Downsells/Cross-sells: Customer enters their credit card information only once - during the very first purchase. For all subsequent Upsells, they just have to click on an "Add To Order" button and their credit card that was just used, is instantly authorized and charged. Do Unlimited Upsells & Downsells.
check
1-Click Upsells using a "Regular" Paypal Account: No need for a merchant account. All you need is just a regular Paypal Business account.
check
Premium Feature
Sold separately
One-Time Offers (OTO): At any time during purchase, you can make "One-Time Offers". Doesn't have to be an upsell. It can even be a "Sign up for my exclusive list" offer.
check
Built-in Email Broadcasting: Ability to send emails to your members right from the DAP Admin Dashboard
check
new Ability to send HTML Email
check
Sneak-Peek: Show content from your blog posts up to the “More” tag. So when Google’s spider (or your visitor) arrives at your blog after you publish a new post, it/they will see a summary of the post, instead of being redirected to a login page. Extremely powerful SEO feature.
check
Partial-Content Protection (Multi-Media): Within one blog post, the text content is publicly available, but the video/audio/pdf/other file is available only for paying members.
check

check
Features
DigitalAccessPass
new 2-Tier Affiliate Program
check
Integrated "Affiliate-Only" Access: A free member who also automatically becomes affiliate, gets an affiliate link and can promote your product and earn commissions, but cannot access site content. Very useful for Marketing- or JV- partners.
check
Post-Cancellation Affiliate Access: Members who cancel, lose access to the content, but can still retain their Affiliate link and can continue to promote your web site.
check
Pay Affiliates both Per-Lead and Per-Sale
check
Global Affiliate Link Redirection: You can set what is the default landing page for all of the default affiliate links. So if you have an sale or promo going on, you can set all default affiliate links (that are not using the "Custom Link Redirection" above) to go to a different landing page. And then after the promo is over, you simply redirect them all back to your home page (or any page you choose).
check
LifeTime Affiliate Commissions: Once your affiliate is locked into a user, all subsequent purchases from that user results in a commissions for that same affiliate. No other affiliate can steal it, even if the user clicks on a different affiliate's link before making subsequent purchases.
check
new Affiliate Payments For Offline Orders: If an affiliate referred a buyer to your web site, and the buyer ended up paying offline, then you would never know that they were referred by an affiliate. Not so with DAP. Just enter the offline payment into DAP. And then the cookie that is still on the buyer's computer triggers the correct affiliate credit the next time the member logs in to your membership site.

Proudly tell your affiliates that they will never get screwed out of a single referral payment!Your affiliates are going to love you for this, and promote your product even more passionately.
check
new Affiliate Payments For Even Word-Of-Mouth Referrals: There will be times when people may not click on an affiliate link before making a purchase. They may have just "heard" about your product from a friend. And they will sometimes tell you (on your checkout page) that they heard about it from "Jill Friend" Or "Joe Partner". DAP allows you to manually give Affiliate credit to Jill Friend or Joe Partner for the purchase, even though there is no affiliate tracking in this case.

If Jill Friend or Joe Partner is not yet a member of your system, you can give them (or invite them to get) free, affiliate-only access (without giving them access to your actual content, or requiring them to become a paying member), and after that, you can give them the affiliate credit.

check
Recurring Autoresponder Emails: Create just one Autoresponder Email (say, an email that contains login and support info to the member) and schedule it go out repeatedly (Day #1, Day #32, Day #63, etc). No need to create a new email every time. Just add the same email multiple times and schedule it a recurring manner.
check
Features
DigitalAccessPass
new Partial Content Protection: Using DAP's new "Shortcode Framework", you can protect different parts of a single post or page using shortcodes like...

[DAP]protected content here[/DAP]

- or-

[DAP isPaidUser="Y" hasAccessTo="1" errMsgTemplate="SHORT"]
protected content here
[/DAP]
check
new In-Page Dripping: Using the new DAP Shortcodes, you can now publish, say, 10 videos on one page, and you can enclose each video's embed code with a separate DAP Shortcode that has a different "Day" setting, so the very same page will show 1 video on Day 1, 2 videos on Day 2, 3 videos on Day 3, and so on.

You don't have to create multiple pages/posts just to drip multiple pieces of content. All of the content can now be dripped within just one "download" page, like this:

[DAP day="1" hasAccessTo="1" isPaidUser="Y" ] VIDEO 1 EMBED CODE (or any other content)
[/DAP]

[DAP day="2" hasAccessTo="1" isPaidUser="Y" ] VIDEO 2 EMBED CODE (or any other content)
[/DAP]

[DAP day="3" hasAccessTo="1" isPaidUser="Y" ] VIDEO 3 EMBED CODE (or any other content)
[/DAP]

Advanced Member Management: Search for Users by Email, Last name, Member Id, Product name, User status and Product status. Easily modify their start dates, end dates, access levels (FREE or PAID), manually mark users as FREE or PAID, Rollback access to members by one recurring cycle (say, if a member is in month #6, and asks for a refund for previous month).
check
"Pause" Membership: A user's access PAUSES when they stop paying. So if they decide to take a break and come back after a while, they can pick up right where they dropped off, and not from where your other paying members (who continued to pay during that time) are.
check
Targeted Email Marketing: Broadcast Emails to a variety of groups of segmented members and non-members, like (but not limited to)...

1) Members who have purchased "Product X"
2) Members who purchased "Product X" between "10-01-2009" and "10-15-2009" (any combination of products and dates)
3) All Members
4) All Members with Expired Subscriptions (who no longer have access to any products)
5) Members who have cancelled
6) Members who are about to expire in the next [XX] days
7) Members who already expired in the last [YY] days

check
Credits-Based System

Using our "Self-Service Store" premium plugin, your members can be awarded "X" credits with each monthly subscription payment, and they can use those credits to purchase any content that *they* are interested in for that month, instead of being force-fed content only in a certain order as decided by you, the admin.

Think of it like an "Audible.com" membership where members get credits, and can redeem those credits towards any audio book from the store. All credits roll-over each month, and if a product needs more credits than what they have currently, they can wait for the next month to accumulate more credits and then redeem those credits when they have enough.

As Admin, you will be able to configure how many credits they get each month with each subscription payment, and also configure how many credits each "Product" (content) in your membership site is worth.

"Admin Follow-Up": A CRM Feature:

Along with the Autoresponder Emails that you set up to go to each member on a specific day, you can additionally set up emails that get sent to you (as Admin) along with every individual member, so you can take some specific action.

If you are also doing offline marketing to your members, you can also add an autoresponder email to go out to you (the admin) every time a member gets to a certain level.
