Product — mobieusGate

Charge for your community, or just the rooms worth paying for.

mobieusGate turns your community into a paid platform. Gate the entire site behind a subscription, or paywall individual forums while everything else stays open. You choose. mobieusGate runs the access checks, the Stripe billing, and the full subscription lifecycle: sign-up, renewal, upgrade, downgrade, cancellation, and failed-payment retries. You wire none of it. Members hit a clean paywall, subscribe in a few clicks, and get exactly the access their plan grants.

Two ways to gate

Gate the whole site, or just the rooms that matter.

You decide what is paid. Lock the entire community behind one subscription, or keep the front door open and charge for the forums worth paying for. Mix and match as your community grows.

Whole-site subscription

Put your entire community behind one membership. New members subscribe before they get in. Everything inside the gate is included.

Per-forum paid access

Keep the community open and paywall individual forums. Premium rooms stay locked. The rest of the site stays free to browse and join.

Mix and match

Run a free public square alongside paid inner rooms. Change what is gated any time. The owner controls every access decision.

Billing handled

The whole subscription lifecycle, done for you.

mobieusGate runs every part of paid membership so you never touch billing code. Members check out through Stripe. Renewals, plan changes, and failed payments handle themselves.

Stripe checkout

Members pay through Stripe. Bring your own account. You keep the full subscription revenue. Mobieus takes no platform fee.

Recurring subscriptions

Monthly or yearly billing renews on its own. No manual invoicing, no chasing renewals. Members stay subscribed until they cancel.

Free trials

Offer a trial period before the first charge. Members get full access while they try the community, then convert when the trial ends.

Upgrades and downgrades

Members move between plans and access updates instantly. mobieusGate handles the proration with Stripe so the math is always right.

Cancellations

A member cancels and access ends cleanly when the period closes. No lingering charges, no confused emails to you.

Failed-payment retries

When a card fails, mobieusGate retries the payment automatically and keeps the member informed. You recover revenue without lifting a finger.

Member experience

A clean paywall, instant access, self-serve from there.

Your members get a simple path: see the paywall, subscribe in a few clicks, get in. After that they manage their own membership. No support tickets for routine billing.

A clear paywall

Members hit a paywall that explains what they get and what it costs. No confusion about what is locked or why.

Instant access on payment

The moment a payment clears, access opens. No waiting, no manual approval. Paid members get exactly what their plan grants.

Self-serve manage and cancel

Members update their card, switch plans, or cancel on their own. They stay in control, and you stay out of routine billing.

Works with the rest of the suite

Paid forums get the full community behind them.

Gating a forum does not strip it down. Paid rooms keep everything the rest of your community has. Members who pay get the real thing, not a walled-off shell.

Full mobieusCore moderation

Paid forums run the same moderation, reports, and admin tools as the rest of your community. Premium rooms stay well-run.

mobieusChat in paid rooms

Real-time chat works behind the paywall just like it does in the open. Paid members talk in the moment, not just in threads.

mobieusKnow and more

The wiki, profiles, feeds, and every other community feature keep working inside gated spaces. One platform, one login, no gaps.
