Make the platform fit the business

Off-the-shelf gets you 80% there. We build the 20% that’s actually yours.

Most membership sites start fighting their owners at the edges: the billing rule the plugin almost supports, the enrollment flow that needs one more step than the settings page allows. That last stretch is where we live. We take your business-specific needs and make the system work for them, instead of shoehorning your business into someone else’s defaults.

Native builds, no duct tape. We extend MemberPress and LearnDash the way they’re designed to be extended, so the next update doesn’t take your revenue down with it.
Your rules, enforced. Pricing, access, and enrollment logic that matches how you actually sell, not what a settings page happens to allow.
Operated, not abandoned. We stay after launch: monitoring, steady improvements, and a human who answers when something looks off.

Who builds membership websites on WordPress?

DigiSavvy does. We are a Pasadena, CA WordPress agency, and membership sites on MemberPress and LearnDash are a big part of what we build.

Most people hiring for this are choosing between a freelancer, a plugin vendor’s consultants and an agency. We are an agency with 15+ years on WordPress, so one team covers the build, the billing rules, the move from whatever you run today, and the care after launch.

StageTime Trivia was leaking nearly $1,000 a month in billing errors. We rebuilt and stabilized it. Read the case study.

We build. Membership sites on MemberPress and course platforms on LearnDash, extended natively.
We fix. Billing that misfires, renewals that quietly fail, access logic held together with workarounds.
We stay. Care plans from $650 a month keep it updated, backed up and watched.

How much does a membership site cost?

Builds start at $6,500, and care plans start at $650 a month. Where you end up depends on how custom your billing and access rules are.

A standard MemberPress setup sits near the low end. Custom billing rules, multi-seat course sales, and migrations from WooCommerce or another platform push the price up. Simple builds run about 3 to 5 weeks; complex ones, 2+ months. See pricing.

Two platforms we know cold

MemberPress for memberships. LearnDash for courses. Both extended natively: never patched over.

MemberPress

Memberships, your rules

Monthly plans that start the moment a member decides, not when a billing cycle says so. Quarterly renewals that only kick in after a member takes a specific action. If you can describe the rule out loud, we can make MemberPress enforce it.

LearnDash

Courses, sold your way

Multi-seat course sales for teams and groups: one checkout, a whole roster enrolled, with seat management and reporting that group buyers actually expect. Corporate training that’s as easy to sell as it is to take.

Both are just examples. The point is the pattern: your business sets the rules, and we make the platform follow them.

Questions, answered

What people ask before they hire us for membership work.

How do I hire someone to set up a paid membership site?

Pick a team that has built the billing and access rules you need, ask to see live membership sites, and get the scope and a price in writing before any work starts. With DigiSavvy you start with a free systems review, then get a scoped build. Builds start at $6,500. See pricing.

MemberPress or LearnDash?

MemberPress if you are selling access to content, a community or downloads on a recurring plan. LearnDash if you are selling courses with lessons, quizzes and certificates. Many sites run both, with MemberPress handling plans and billing and LearnDash handling the learning. We build on both.

Do you build on MemberPress and LearnDash, or from scratch?

Both, but we usually extend MemberPress and LearnDash natively rather than starting from zero. You keep the plugin ecosystem, updates, and support. We build the 20% that’s specific to your business, the way the platforms are designed to be extended.

Can LearnDash sell courses to teams and groups?

Yes. We customize LearnDash for multi-seat e-commerce: one checkout enrolls a whole team, with seat management and reporting for the group buyer. It’s one of our most-requested builds for corporate training.

Can you fix an existing membership site, or only build new ones?

We rescue existing membership sites all the time: billing rules that misfire, renewals that quietly fail, access logic held together with workarounds. A free systems review tells you what’s broken and what fixing it would take.

Will custom membership features survive plugin updates?

Yes, that’s the point of building natively. We extend MemberPress and LearnDash through their supported APIs instead of patching core files, so updates ship without taking your revenue down.
