Sell WordPress Plugins From Your Own Site
You built a great WordPress plugin or theme. Selling it should be simple, and the money you earn should be yours. Bodholdt Licensing turns your own WordPress site into a complete store for licensed software: payments, license keys, automatic updates, and a customer portal, all in one plugin you run yourself.
Keep 100% of what you earn
Bodholdt Licensing runs on your own site and connects to your own Stripe account. There is one flat annual price for the plugin, and no per-sale cut on top of it. You keep every dollar your customers pay, minus only the payment processor’s own fee. Your customers, your store, and your sales data all stay on infrastructure you control.
Everything you need is built in
- Stripe checkout. Sell subscriptions, one-time purchases, and lifetime licenses. Free trials, mixed carts, and automatic handling of renewals, cancellations, and failed payments are all built in.
- License keys with domain activation. Each key activates on the number of sites its tier allows, with secure validation.
- Automatic updates. Your customers get updates in their WordPress dashboard, delivered from your own server, the same way updates arrive for any plugin they know.
- An SDK generator. Generate a ready-to-drop-in licensing client for your own plugins, so activation, updates, and feature gating work without you writing the plumbing.
- A customer portal. Buyers look up their keys, see their active domains, and manage their own subscriptions.
- Reports. Revenue, MRR, license health, and seat utilization, so you can see how the business is doing.
Set it up in about ten minutes
- Install and activate the plugin on your site.

- Follow the guided setup wizard, and start selling.
Try the whole thing before you buy
When you first install Bodholdt Licensing, it runs with every feature unlocked for seven days, with no license key and no card required. That gives you time to wire it into your store and try the full checkout, licensing, and update flow before you decide. Every plan is also backed by a 14-day money-back guarantee, and the price you pay is the price you renew at.
