What it does
Running a directory takes time, and many owners want listing submitters to pay for the space they use. Directorist on its own handles the directory and its listings. This add-on sits on top of it and adds the paid side: packages, subscriptions, billing cycles and payment handling. You decide what each plan includes, such as how many listings a user can post, and set the price and billing terms that fit your model, from free plans to recurring subscriptions.
The plugin suits local business directories, niche listing sites and classified ads sites built with Directorist. Users pick a plan, pay through one of the supported payment gateways and manage their package from the customer dashboard, where they can upgrade or downgrade. Listing priority can be configured, people claiming an existing listing can buy a plan during the claim process, and email notifications cover payment confirmations, renewals and plan expirations. Reports let you track revenue and subscription status.
Best for
- Directorist sites that charge for business listings
- Classified ads sites offering paid posting plans
- Niche directories selling recurring listing subscriptions
Features
Custom pricing packages
Define each package with its own features, listing limits and price, so different users can choose the level of directory access that matches what they need.
Recurring subscription plans
Offer subscriptions with automated recurring payments, alongside one-time payment options, so listing owners can pay on whatever schedule your directory supports.
Billing cycles and trials
Set flexible billing cycles and add trial periods, giving new users a way to try a plan before regular billing begins.
Discounts, free plans and upgrades
Use pricing controls for discounts and free plan options, and let subscribers move between plans with upgrade and downgrade capabilities.
Multiple payment gateways
Accept payments through several payment gateways so users can pay with the method they prefer, with gateway errors reported when a subscription cancellation fails.
Configurable listing priority
Set listing priority as part of your plans, so listings tied to certain packages can be given a higher place in the directory.
Plan purchase during claims
Authorized users who claim an existing listing can buy a pricing plan as part of the claim flow, without a separate purchase step.
Reports and email notifications
Track revenue and subscription status in reports, while automated emails keep users informed about payment confirmations, renewals and plan expirations.
