Connect Courses to Memberships with Ease

The LearnDash Paid Memberships Pro Integration allows you to connect your LearnDash courses with membership levels created in Paid Memberships Pro (PMPro). Despite the name, the core PMPro plugin is free, and you can expand its functionality with over 60 premium add-ons if you choose to upgrade.

With this integration, you can restrict course access, auto-enroll users upon membership signup, and manage recurring payments—all while combining the power of LearnDash LMS with the flexibility of PMPro membership management.

Why Use Paid Memberships Pro with?

Paid Memberships Pro (PMPro) is one of the most popular membership plugins for WordPress. It provides robust member management, reporting tools, and advanced payment integrations. By syncing PMPro with LearnDash, you gain full control over course access while also leveraging PMPro’s built-in membership workflows.
