Subscription across multiple sites

Pelcro Product

🔍 Problem Statement

As a subscriber purchasing a subscription across multiple sites under the same account, I experience access being limited to only the site where the subscription was purchased, despite the product being configured for availability on multiple sites.

This results in confusing access behavior, fragmented content availability, and reduced perceived subscription value, often leading to support requests or duplicate subscriptions.

💡 User Story

As a subscriber of a multi-site product, I want my subscription to grant access across all sites associated with that product, so that I can consume content seamlessly without needing multiple subscriptions.

🎯 Definition of Done (DoD)

A feature is done when:

✔️Given a product configured to be available on multiple sites under the same Pelcro account, when a subscriber purchases a subscription using any pricing plan under that product on any site, then the subscriber is granted paywall access on all sites associated with that product.

  1. Acc multiple sites > if subscription attached to product, return all subscriptions related to that site.

✔️ This change will impact API and SDK/ JS part, specifically:

  1. Subscription entitlement resolution at the API level

  2. Paywall evaluation logic within the Pelcro SDK to recognize cross-site entitlements

  3. No change to purchase flows or checkout UI behavior

✔️ This solution will include the following limitations:

  1. Applies only to sites under the same Pelcro account

  2. Does not extend access across different Pelcro accounts

  3. Products configured for a single site will continue to behave as they do today

  4. Retroactive application to existing subscriptions is out of scope.

    Multiple logins per subscription

    🔍 Problem Statement

    In Pelcro, allowing multiple user logins under a single subscription is only supported when the subscription type is membership or when a seat license is assigned. This restricts publishers whose subscribers need shared access — such as households or small teams — from managing it without the overhead of memberships or seat-license configuration.

    💡 User Story

    As a Pelcro admin or subscriber, I want to allow multiple user logins under a single subscription without requiring a membership type or seat license, so that families, teams, or shared-access accounts can be set up simply without unnecessary product complexity.

    🎯 Definition of Done (DoD)

    A feature is done when:

    ✔️ Given a standard subscription (non-membership, no seat license), when an admin enables multi-login for that subscription, then multiple user accounts can be associated with it and each associated user gains the same paywall access as the primary subscriber — without requiring a membership product type or seat-license assignment.
