This guide is for WordPress merchants running a program for their own Restrict Content Pro memberships. AffiliateBase can capture the landing-page referral, while the plugin controls checkout and subscription state.

Do not infer compatibility from the presence of Stripe. The plugin checkout must pass AffiliateBase’s generated referral ID, and recurring payments must be tested against the merchant’s commission rules.

If your site uses a same-page Stripe Payment Link or custom Checkout Session, follow the Stripe guide. Otherwise keep compatibility marked unverified until an end-to-end test creates a sale and commission.

Follow these steps to integrate AffiliateBase with Restrict Content Pro:

1

Add the Tracking Script

Add the AffiliateBase tracking script to your WordPress site. You can add it via your theme's header or using a header scripts plugin. Use the pinned jsDelivr tracking URL for the latest published AffiliateBase release.
html 
<script async src="https://app.affiliatebase.io/track.js" data-account-id="YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID"></script>
2

Add via functions.php (Alternative)

Alternatively, add the script using WordPress hooks in your theme's functions.php file.
php 
// Add to your theme's functions.php
add_action('wp_head', function() {
?>
<script>(function(w,r){w._abq=w._abq||[];w[r]=w[r]||function(){(w[r].q=w[r].q||[]).push(arguments)}})(window,'affiliatebase');</script>
<script async src="https://app.affiliatebase.io/track.js" data-account-id='YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID'></script>
<?php
});
3

Connect Your Stripe Account

Pass the generated referral ID as client_reference_id to Stripe for accurate conversion tracking. Do not use the public ?via token. Connect the Stripe account used by checkout, then verify that Restrict Content Pro passes the generated referral ID.
4

Test Your Integration

Visit your site with a test affiliate link and verify tracking is working.
javascript 
// Visit your site with a test affiliate link:
// Open the exact setup-test link shown in AffiliateBase.

// Open browser console and check:
console.log(window.AffiliateBase?.referral); // Should show a generated referral ID
