Gate Booking Pages Behind WordPress Membership Plugins
SchedulingKit works with WordPress membership plugins like MemberPress, Restrict Content Pro, and Paid Memberships Pro to restrict booking access to active members. Non-members see an upgrade prompt instead of the booking widget.
How It Works
Set up membership site booking with WordPress in just a few steps.
Set up your membership levels
Configure membership tiers in your WordPress membership plugin (e.g., Free, Silver, Gold).
Restrict booking pages by level
Use your membership plugin's content restriction to gate pages containing SchedulingKit widgets.
Members log in and book
Active members see the booking widget and available services for their tier. Non-members see a join or upgrade prompt.
Booking confirms with member data
SchedulingKit prefills the booking form with the member's WordPress profile data (name, email) for faster checkout.
Benefits
Why membership site booking with WordPress and SchedulingKit makes a difference.
Exclusive member booking
Only active, paying members can access booking pages. Lapsed members see a renewal prompt.
Tier-based service access
Gold members see premium services. Silver members see standard services. Each tier gets the right booking options.
Prefilled member data
The booking form pulls name and email from the WordPress user profile, reducing form friction for logged-in members.
Membership plugin compatibility
Works with MemberPress, Restrict Content Pro, Paid Memberships Pro, and any plugin that uses WordPress content restriction.
Membership Site Booking in Practice
A real-world look at how WordPress membership site booking works with SchedulingKit.
A business coaching community uses MemberPress on WordPress with three tiers: Community ($49/month, forum access only), Growth ($149/month, 2 coaching calls/month), and Executive ($399/month, unlimited coaching calls plus priority booking). The coaching calls are managed through SchedulingKit.
The booking page for coaching calls is restricted to Growth and Executive members using MemberPress content rules. Community members who navigate to the URL see a message: "Coaching calls are available on the Growth plan and above. Upgrade now." with a link to the pricing page.
Growth members see a booking widget with a standard 30-minute coaching call. Executive members see the same widget plus a 60-minute deep-dive session and priority time slots (early morning and evening). SchedulingKit checks the member's booking count against their plan limit — Growth members who have used both monthly calls see a message explaining their limit resets on their billing date.
The coaching community grew from 120 to 340 members over 8 months. The membership-gated booking reduced unauthorized booking attempts by 100% and the upgrade prompt on the restricted page converted 12% of Community members to the Growth tier.
