Solana Video Paywall for WordPress: Micro payments, Instant Streaming & Digital Downloads
(Live Demo Above)
The subscription model is broken. It’s time for the “Pay-Per-View” revolution. For years, creators have been forced to choose between two bad options: giving 30% of their income to platforms like Patreon/Udemy, or dealing with the technical nightmare of setting up WooCommerce and Stripe just to sell a single video.
Solana Video changes the game. It is a lightweight, “drop-in” plugin that turns any WordPress post into a premium cinema experience. It allows you to sell video content directly to your audience using high-speed, fee-less micro-payments.
Unlike clunky membership plugins that hide your content behind login screens and checkout forms, Solana Video puts the paywall inside the video player itself. This creates a “Freemium” hook that dramatically increases conversion:
There are no middlemen. No “payout schedules.” No minimum balances. When a user buys your video, the funds move directly from their wallet to yours in seconds. We use the Solana network because it is fast enough to feel instant and cheap enough to make selling a $1.00 video profitable.

Don’t slow down your WordPress site by hosting heavy video files. This plugin recommends the affordable Storj.io, a decentralized cloud storage network. This ensures your videos stream in 4K quality without buffering, regardless of how much traffic you get.
We believe in “Guest Checkout.” Users do not need to create a WordPress account to buy your video. They simply enter their email address to receive their receipt. If they want to watch the video again later on a different device, they just type their email in the “Login” box to restore access instantly. While the front-end is simple for users, the back-end gives you total control:
The “Subscription Fatigue” is real. Users are tired of paying $15/month for content they barely watch. By selling individual videos for micro-payments (e.g., $0.99), you lower the barrier to entry. A user who won’t subscribe is often happy to impulse-buy a single piece of high-value content. Ready to own your audience? Buy in seconds, below!
