Paid Memberships Pro Proration Add On 1.0.4

The Paid Memberships Pro Proration Add On is a WordPress plugin designed to make membership upgrades and downgrades smoother inside Paid Memberships Pro. Instead of resetting a member’s billing timeline, it prorates the change so the initial checkout payment reflects the remaining time in their current billing cycle.

By adjusting the amount due at membership checkout while keeping the member’s existing payment date intact (when applicable), it helps prevent billing confusion and reduces manual admin handling. The result is a fair, consistent membership experience that aligns charges with the member’s schedule.

Main Features

• Proration for upgrades — Calculates and adjusts the initial checkout payment when a member moves to a higher membership level.
• Proration for downgrades — Updates the initial payment when switching to a lower tier without disrupting the billing cycle.
• Payment amount adjustment — Revises the first charge at checkout to reflect the prorated portion of the billing period.
• Preserves billing date — Keeps the member’s existing billing/payment date so future renewals stay consistent.
• Applies at membership checkout — Works through the membership change flow where Paid Memberships Pro processes the checkout.
• Reduces billing confusion — Minimizes mismatches between when members change plans and when they are charged.
• Less admin effort — Lowers the need for manual calculations or corrective billing steps during plan transitions.

Benefits

• Seamless transitions — Members can upgrade or downgrade without experiencing disruptive billing resets.
• Fair charges — Prorated checkout amounts better match the time remaining in the current membership term.
• Fewer billing errors — Consistent payment dates help prevent accidental double-charging or missed renewals.
• Better member experience — Clear, predictable billing improves trust and reduces support inquiries.
