Engage, Encourage, and Convert—Without Restricting Content
The Paywall Plugin by 4 Roads is designed to elevate user engagement on your community platform by leveraging a “soft” content barrier. Instead of outright restricting access, it intercepts the rendering pipeline, allowing you to display targeted messages after a set number of views to encourage users to take action—whether it’s joining your community, subscribing, or purchasing premium content.
How it Works
- View Trigger: Using a custom widget, the Paywall Plugin tracks user interactions and displays a message after a designated number of content views.
- Soft Engagement: Users can still access all or a portion of the content, but the plugin presents a subtle prompt—such as a pop-up—that encourages them to join, subscribe, or take another action.
- Customisable Messaging: Tailor your message to highlight the value of joining the community, subscribing to premium features, or participating in discussions. Example: “Join the 4 Roads Community for a personalised experience and connect with like-minded members!”
Why Use the Paywall Plugin?
- Increase Conversions: Nudge users towards actions like signing up or upgrading memberships, without alienating them by completely restricting access.
- Seamless Experience: The plugin offers a "soft" firewall similar to popular platforms like Medium and The Guardian—users still get a taste of the content while being gently encouraged to engage deeper.
- Customisable Behaviour: You decide when and where the prompt appears, giving you full control over your community’s user journey.
