Making a manual payment for membership might seem counterintuitive when operating your membership business online. Most sites want things fast: an instant credit card or PayPal payment, so members can access your content without delay.

For some projects, though, manual payments are really important. Take the example of a super high-priced team course. With these large ticket purchases, sending the payment directly to your bank account reduces fees and gateway charge limits.

Or, take a super local community organization. If your members are all living in the same area, they may prefer to bring their dues payment to you in person (which also avoids credit card processing fees).

You need the Pay By Check: Manual and Offline Payments Add On. With this Add On, you’ll realize these clear benefits:

• Freedom for members to choose their preferred secure payment method.
• Secure options for people who might not want to pay with a credit card or have business requirements related to invoice payments.
• Confidence as the owner that only members whose manual payment has been confirmed can access all the benefits of your membership.
