Tinypass for Developers
Tinypass is a simple, flexible tool that allows publishers to manage access to their premium content without changing their site’s existing structure.
Our flexible platform can be used to monetize your digital content in a way that makes sense for your site and your audience. Charge for access to one piece of content or an entire section, set prices as low as two-cents, and easily adjust your approach based on audience response.
Not a developer? Not a problem! Check out our Publisher Guide for a non-technical overview of getting Tinypass up and running on your site today.
How it Works
You can deploy Tinypass in one of three ways:
- JavaScript: Our JavaScript plugin allows you to configure paywall options via a graphical user interface. Once finished, simply copy and paste a snippet of JavaScript into the head tag of your page in order to get up and running.
- WordPress Plugin: If you're using WordPress, our WordPress plugin offers the ability to paywall posts directly from your WordPress dashboard.
- API for Developers: Dive into the API to unlock Tinypass's most powerful features.
