Best for logins and payments on a Webflow site
Memberstack adds logins, Stripe payments and gated content to Webflow sites. Plans start at $25 a month billed yearly, but a 4% fee applies on lower tiers, and the cheapest plan stops at 1,000 members.
Who Memberstack is for
- Fits if you build on Webflow and want logins and gated pages
- Works for a small paid community under 1,000 members
Who Memberstack is not for
- Pricey if you sell a lot: 4%, 2% or 0.9% transaction fees apply on lower tiers on top of Stripe's
- Tight if you grow: Basic stops at 1,000 members
- Skip it if you are not on Webflow or Stripe, as the page is framed around them
- Watch out: the $399 Established plan is the way to remove the fee entirely

Keep Memberstack, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Memberstack you would be making a builder that other people can use without writing code. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $300 a year.
What you could not
- A builder that other people can use without writing code.
- Email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox.
- Newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox.
- A members' space with posts, chat and events that people keep coming back to.
- What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: single sign-on.
What this rests on. Memberstack’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
