The ProblemOther smart contracts were not built to handle memberships or subscriptions
  • problem-image

    You've tried using digital collectible NFTs for memberships — and realized you needed to keep launching new projects in order to keep revenue flowing.

  • problem-image

    You've tried to build a way to handle recurring subscriptions or time-specific memberships — but your existing smart contract can't support renewals, expirations, or managing membership status over time.

  • problem-image

    You want to get memberships to users easily, using things they are familiar with like email, airdrops, Apple and Google wallets — but can't find a way to do so.

We've solved the membership problem for smart contractsUnlock is the only smart contract protocol specifically built for memberships
Expirations and RenewalsAdd time constraints to your smart contracts
Other smart contracts don't address the "time" element of membership. Unlock Protocol smart contracts allow you to easily manage membership state, including expirations and renewals.
Recurring PaymentsHandle recurring payments onchain
With built-in functions to check current membership status, trigger renewals, and manage membership state, you can build subscription programs using smart contracts — without having to stitch together a bunch of workarounds.
Easy onboarding for customersFamiliar onboarding experiences
With features like email-based memberships, walletless airdrops, and seamless integration with Apple Wallet and Google Wallet, your users will be up and using your system in no time, without having to learn (or care about!) tech-speak jargon.

It was a no-brainer for us to ticket DappCon with an onchain solution using Unlock Protocol. We wanted to bring blockchain technology forward, and setting up ticketing for DappCon was done in under two weeks.
