Paid Memberships Pro Subscription Delays 0.6.2

Paid Memberships Pro Subscription Delays is a WordPress plugin add-on designed to refine how billing timing works in Paid Memberships Pro membership plans. It adds a “delay” field to membership levels and discount codes, letting you set a variable period between an initial payment (when required) and the start of recurring subscription charges. This makes it easier to match your membership workflow, such as timed access, onboarding phases, or trial-like experiences. If you need more control over when recurring billing begins, this extension helps you configure those timelines precisely.

Main Features

• Delay field for membership levels — Add a configurable delay period before recurring subscription charges begin.
• Delay field for discount codes — Apply delay timing to specific discount code behaviors alongside memberships.
• Variable-length delay — Choose a flexible delay duration rather than a fixed interval.
• Controls the gap after initial payment — Manage the time between the first payment and subsequent recurring billing.
• Granular per-level configuration — Set different delay periods for different membership levels.
• Granular per-code configuration — Adjust delay timing based on the discount code used during signup.
• Works with Paid Memberships Pro — Integrates directly with your existing membership setup on WordPress.
• Built for subscription scheduling needs — Helps align billing with onboarding, campaigns, or access windows.

Benefits

• Improved cash flow timing — Better aligns when recurring charges occur relative to signups and initial payments.
