Freemius for WordPress

If you are using WordPress with the Block Editor, the Freemius for WordPress plugin enables you to integrate the Freemius checkout directly and quickly while build landing/sales pages for your Freemius product. No JavaScript, theme hacking, or coding required!

Out of the box, Freemius for WordPress gives you:

  • Native Block Editor support (Gutenberg): Drop checkout buttons or pricing tables directly into your page layouts - just like adding any other block. For example: Add a "Buy Now" button to your landing page in seconds.

  • Dynamic pricing tables: Display different plans with clear comparisons and calls-to-action. Example: Showcase "Starter / Pro / Agency" tiers side by side, with checkout built in.

  • Plan switching and trials: Let customers upgrade, downgrade, or start with a free trial seamlessly. Example: Offer a 14-day free trial that auto-converts to a paid plan without extra coding.

  • Full compatibility with modern WordPress block themes and plugins: Works out of the box with your existing WordPress block site setup - no theme hacks required.

  • 100% free and open source: Transparent, community-driven, and extensible. Example: Extend the plugin with your own block variations, or contribute improvements back to the repo.
