Charge your readers without giving up a cut.
Subscriptions, members-only posts, your email list and checkout, on your own domain.
Free plan, no card needed.
A paid membership and its protected community, configured in one flow.
Paid membership for your readers, on your own domain.
Free posts stay public. Paid posts sit in a members space. AXL handles the subscription, the email list and the renewals.
- Subscriptions. Monthly or yearly, with a trial price and self-service pause.
- Paid spaces. Only active subscribers can open them.
- Email. Send each issue to your list or to one segment.
- Failed cards. Retries and a reminder before access is removed.
Good to know: There is no RSS feed. Card details stay with your payment provider, so paying members re-subscribe after a move.

Set up a paid membership: a “Members” subscription at $9/month with a 7-day $1 trial, a landing page in my brand style with checkout, and a space only active subscribers can view. Then a failed-renewal ladder: wait a day, message, wait three more, revoke.
- 1. Creates a $9/month “Members” subscription with a 7-day $1 trial.
- 2. Builds a landing page with checkout in your brand style.
- 3. Opens a space only active subscribers can see.
- 4. Sets up failed renewals: a message after a day, access removed three days later. Nothing is published.
