  • Premium: Supports the definition of different roles for variations in variable products
  • Premium: Allows defining, per product, a role validity period in days after the purchase, so the role granted in the purchase will be automatically removed…
  • Premium: Supports role management tied to subscription products, supporting WooCommerce Subscriptions, YITH WooCommerce Subscription and WP Swings…
  • Premium: Allows defining multiple roles per product
  • Premium: Unlimited MemberPress levels, several roles per membership, and mapping of every membership state (pending, active, suspended, cancelled, expired)
  • Premium: Restricts your store by role — hides products and categories from the catalog and search, denies direct URL access, blocks add-to-cart, and sets…
  • Premium: Retroactive sync — a batched admin tool that aligns the roles of members who already existed before the mapping was configured. Safe to re-run
