What Is PMPro – Capture Name & Address For Free Levels Or For Offsite Gateway .4?
PMPro – Capture Name & Address For Free Levels Or For Offsite Gateway .4 is developed by Paid Memberships Pro and is a membership plugin for WordPress. It belongs to the membership category on WPExclusive, alongside other tools for site administrators. This extension bridges the data gap between free registrations and paid checkouts handled by external providers.
The plugin solves the problem of missing member data when users bypass traditional onsite credit card forms. It is essential for site owners who need physical address records for tax compliance, shipping, or member verification without requiring a paid transaction.
PMPro – Capture Name & Address For Free Levels Or For Offsite Gateway .4 Features
The feature set is built around expanding the conditional logic of the standard checkout form to ensure fields are always visible when required.
Free Level Data Collection
Address for Free Levels allows you to capture name and billing information for memberships that cost $0.00. Normally, these fields are hidden to minimize friction, but the plugin enables them so you can build a complete member database. This is useful for sites providing free trials that require a physical location for future eligibility in the membership structure.
Offsite Gateway Compatibility
The plugin ensures address fields appear when using offsite gateways like PayPal Express, PayPal Standard, or 2Checkout. Since these gateways often handle billing details on their own hosted pages, the membership site typically skips those fields. This extension captures the data locally before the user is redirected, ensuring your WordPress orders contain full records.
Admin Record Storage
All captured details are securely stored within the membership order records in your WordPress admin. Site administrators can view these details under Memberships > Orders. Note that while Address for Free Levels saves this data for internal use, it does not transmit this specific billing data to the external payment gateway.
