Customer Reviews for the Plugin

  • A True Time Saver

    We regularly send out hundreds of codes to customers and this plugin has totally changed the game and made life so much easier. For a construction business, being able to restrict access unless you have the code has been a great incentive for customers who are curious about upgraded features without giving everything away!

    Shirley S.
  • Batch import

    Our client has a HUGE user base and we needed a solution to handle multiple codes asap. The CSV import feature of this plugin was exactly what we needed

    Brian Scott
  • Easy setup

    There were good alternatives out there, but with this Plug-in, pages have their content blocked as soon as you create the code, no extra configuration needed.

    Andrea Bennet
  • Good tracking tools

    You can check how many times each code is used. This tool is extremely valuable. I did have some questions when configuring the plugin, but support helped me quite quickly, so it's 5 stars for me
