<p><strong>TIV Paywall for WooCommerce</strong> lets you sell access to premium content. Create products that hide videos, documents, images, audio, or text behind a paywall — customers purchase to unlock.</p>
<p>The extension adds two product types: <strong>Paywall</strong> (single content item) and <strong>Paywall Pass</strong> (access to all Paywall products). Both come with configurable access expiration, so you can sell time-limited or lifetime access.</p>
<h3>Supported content types</h3>
<p>Paste a URL into the <em>Hidden media</em> field — Paywall handles the rest:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Video:</strong> YouTube (including Shorts and Playlists), Vimeo, TikTok, TED, Cloudflare Stream, and direct files (mp4, webm, mov).</li>
<li><strong>Audio:</strong> mp3, wav, ogg, and other formats supported by the browser.</li>
<li><strong>Documents:</strong> PDF files, Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drawings, and files stored on Google Drive.</li>
<li><strong>Publications:</strong> Issuu embeds.</li>
<li><strong>Images:</strong> Any image URL, including Google Drive hosted images.</li>
<li><strong>Text:</strong> Use the product description with the “Hide description” option — content stays hidden until purchased.</li>
</ul>
<p>You can also set a <strong>Visible media URL</strong> to show a preview before purchase — for example, a video trailer, a watermarked image, or the first page of a PDF.</p>
<h2>How it works</h2>
<ul>
<li>VIDEO: an unlisted YouTube clip becomes visible after purchase. Before purchase, the customer sees only a picture or a trailer.</li>
<li>PDF: a document is hidden until the product is paid for. After purchase, the full PDF is displayed on the product page.</li>
<li>TEXT: content stored in the full description is hidden until purchased. Only the short description is shown before payment.</li>
</ul>

<h2>Capture residual revenue with recurring payments</h2>
<p dir="ltr">Can you guarantee how much money your store is going to make this month? If you offered subscription-based products, you could do just that.</p>

Create product-of-the-month clubs, weekly service subscriptions or even yearly software billing packages. Add sign-up fees, offer free trials, or set expiration periods.</p>
