Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
Actively maintainedHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated value
What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.
Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

seem to be more concerned about collecting personal information rather than functionality. promptly deleting

I’ve been using Memberspace for almost a year. Unlike most people using it, I’m NOT using it to sell anything. But I do need it to attract and manage free ‘members’ (having these members drives revenue for my business). The support team has always been really quick to respond and resolve any issues I’ve had as a non-techie, which is really important (I’m writing this review now because the lady who helped me asked me to, and I’m more than happy to do it). I would say the price is fairly high given I only use the free tier, but it’s a price I’m happy to pay because it’s easy to use and the support is good (I only knock a mark off as I wish they had an entry-level tier for those not using it for paid subs).

Ive used Memberspace for years now- whenever I have an issue their customer service is outstanding. Recently I had an issue that we had gone back and forth many times trying to troubleshoot and they really stuck with it and got it figured out for me. Amazing- thank you so much CP.

The plugin hides information about payment processing via Stripe. You can add any currency, however not all are supported and there is no documentation, warning or impediment, to date, about this limitation. The result is that when a tool is activated for the public, the user is unable to pay because Stripe does not support it in some countries. So, with MemberSpace support, you discover this and they offer a monthly upgrade of US$100. Check before starting any project if payment is supported in your country or if you will have to pay an extra US$100 per month. Frustrating.

We needed to switch over to a new membership management software and after extensive research MemberSpace had all the fundamental features we needed, an easy migration process, and a helpful customer service team and FAQ section. We now have a smooth UX for our members and an easy backend admin dashboard for our team.

Just added this to my site and it’s really just what I needed. Ward & team are really obsessive about support, that’s for sure. Got me all the install assistance I required and it’s all good now. Highly recommend them.

This membership plugin rocks. Highly recommend. As a consultant I’ve worked with several clients who use MemberSpace and I’ve used it as an end user, too. Love it. Support is awesome, too.

I’ve run plenty of membership sites, and even created my own membership site software at one point, and I have to say that MemberSpace is the easiest way to run one. Very exciting that they are now available on WordPress!
