What it does
Running a job board with WP Job Manager is simple until you want employers to pay for their posts. This add-on handles that by turning job packages into WooCommerce products. You can sell a single listing, a pack that covers several job ads, or featured packs that highlight premium posts. Each package can have its own expiration period, so listings stay live only for as long as the buyer paid for.
During job submission, the plugin shows every available package so employers can pick the one that fits. Checkout runs through WooCommerce, which gives buyers a familiar purchase flow and gives you control over payments, packages and user accounts. You can require checkout during registration or submission so each purchase is tied to the right account. Buyers then see their purchased packs on their account page and can track the listings they have left.
Best for
- Job board owners charging employers to post listings
- Niche recruitment sites already running WP Job Manager
- Agencies building paid job boards on WooCommerce
Features
WooCommerce checkout for packages
Employers buy job packages through the standard WooCommerce checkout, so payment processing and orders are handled by the store you already run.
Multi-listing job packs
Create packs that let an employer submit several job ads with one purchase instead of paying for each listing separately.
Featured listing packs
Sell packages that mark job posts as featured, giving employers a way to highlight their openings on your board.
Custom expiration periods
Set how long listings from each package stay live, so jobs come down automatically once the paid period ends.
Flexible pricing and variations
Build different package options and price points to match the needs and budgets of the employers you serve.
Package choice at submission
All available job packages appear during the job submission process, letting employers compare options and pick one before posting.
Forced checkout on registration
Require checkout during registration or submission so every purchased package is linked to the correct user account for later tracking.
Account page package tracking
Purchased job packs show up in the user's account area, where employers can see and manage their remaining listings.
