Create a WordPress integration

The Rebilly WordPress plugin enables you to accept payments, sell subscriptions, and build membership websites with no developer experience required. To accept payments using the plugin, you must have a WordPress website.

What we're building

For an example, see Checkout.

This is running in test mode and will not generate a real charge. Use our test card: 4111 1111 1111 1111, any 3 digit CVV, and any future expiration date to test.

Test the entire flow. To test in the sandbox environment, use any of the payment cards described in Test payment cards, IBANs, and ACH details. To test in the live environment, use a real payment card.
