Forget passwords and complicated recovery processes. It's a simple, easy login experience that keeps them returning.

"We've looked at a few other membership tools that were part of packages that we'd put money into. But there's nothing that can beat Membership. There's plenty of amazing stuff out there that people have been building throughout many years. But when it comes to customizing, if you make use of WordPress, you can't touch this. Obviously, I'm super biased, however we've earned millions through this product."
