A simple and reliable paywall for WooCommerce. If you own an online store on WordPress and sell digital content (courses, articles, videos, e-books), UniPaywall will help you protect your materials from free access. The plugin works as a barrier: the content is hidden behind a shortcode , and it is opened only after a successful purchase of the product in WooCommerce. This is a solution for authors, teachers, and merchants who want to monetize content without unnecessary complications.
Unlike complex DRM systems or cumbersome plugins, UniPaywall focuses on simplicity. Install the plugin, specify the product IDs in the shortcode, and the system will check the order status by itself. Support for “any” (access when purchasing at least one product) or “all” (all products are required) logic allows you to create flexible schemes: for example, one content for a course package or separate sections for different products.
What does UniPaywall offer? Full control: access to the content is only for those who have purchased access. The buyer sees the materials only after payment, and unregistered users receive a polite message about the need to log in or purchase.
Automation: the plugin integrates with WooCommerce, checking order statuses (completed, processing, etc., which are configured in the plugin admin). HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage) support for modern Woocommerce stores. No need for additional hooks or custom code.
And if you want to give access or grant it individually manually – no problem. Manually create an order and assign it the required status. You may want to create a separate status for “Bonus” orders in Woocommerce and assign it in such cases.
Flexibility: use multiple products in one paywall, combine with other shortcodes inside a secure block. Possibility of custom messages about the refusal or the need for a login, including HTTP codes for SEO.
Business benefits:
- Instant access verification without delay.
