What is a Membership Website?
A membership website is a site that has valuable members-only content where you need to sign up to become a member and login in order to get access.
It helps you create and grow a community of members that are ready to receive the perks of subscribing to your membership.
Usually, these gated online communities require payment monthly in order to keep access. There are usually different levels of memberships with varying benefits, also known as member tiers.

What Memberstack can do?

Memberstack provides a simple and seamless interface for your users to log in and pay their membership fees through your website.
A lot of software claims to be seamless but usually, they mean that they seamlessly redirect your users to another site.

We are trying to keep the user on your website as much as possible.
