Just wanted to share a community-built workaround for anyone who聽really聽needs PayPal with Memberstack.
Important note: This is NOT an official Memberstack feature. Memberstack is built on Stripe, and PayPal is not natively supported. This solution is a workaround using a Memberscript.
What this workaround does
Accept PayPal one-time payments
Accept PayPal subscriptions
Sync successful PayPal payments to Memberstack access
You can gate the the 3rd page/article using our gated content feature. This way, anyone who isn't on the plan you set to have access to the page would have to upgrade.
While Stripe had added support for PayPal, based on the docs, it seems it's unreliable in few aspects.
If you want to integrate PayPal and use Memberstack for user management, you can possibly handle the payments, subscriptions separately and give access to such users to the content via free plans in Memberstack.
But that would mean you will have to take care of the flow to make it work seamlessly, you can take a look at the article I linked earlier to see if it fits for your project use-case. Hope this helps.

Built specifically for Webflow + Memberstack

Overview & setup guide:

Live Webflow example:

This is meant for teams who understand the limitations and are okay using a community workaround until native PayPal support exists.
Hopefully this helps!馃挋

Hey guys, any idea how we can add PayPal payment subscriptions? I guess it will work with Zapier... Any clue?
