This is possible using Gravity Forms v1.5 and the PayPal Add-On. Both of these are currently development releases but they are stable and usable.

It has the ability to have a form that creates a post, and when paired with the PayPal Add-On it can be setup so that it only creates the post after payment has been received. If the payment is a subscription payment you can also set it so that the post is removed when the subscription is canceled.

Please note Add-Ons are only available to Developer License Holders. So if you wanted to use the PayPal Add-On you would need to purchase the Developer License.

Add-Ons are currently only available to Developer License holders. They are one of the benefits of the Developer License, it's not just about unlimited sites it's also the added functionality of the current and future add-ons that you also receive (ex. PayPal, MailChimp, Campaign Monitor, FreshBooks, User Registration and more on the way).

I would pay for the Mailchimp add on as a separate upgrade; I too am only running Gravity on a couple of sites, doesn't make sense for me to pay to upgrade to the developer license.

That doesn't seem right to have to pay $199 for the developers version for one site.
It's $39 for GF so essentially I'd be paying $160 for the MailChimp plugin.

I would have no problem paying $39 or so for each individual plugin.

I just don't get the logic behind having to buy a developers licens just so you can use plugins.

I would think that you would sell more plugins if they were available for the non-developers version.

@msfcorp We aren't interested in volume. We know we could sell more plugins if we lowered the price, however if we sell more plugins that means we have more customers to support.

With a lower price on the product, we would have to be able to provide support to those customers on less revenue. The end result would be more time spent on support, less time spent on development, with both suffering.

Are pricing is based on economies of scale. We know we can balance out support and development on the revenue that is derived from our existing pricing structure. We aren't interested in a high volume, low priced product. Plugin support is to intensive for that to work.

We do plan on making Add-Ons available to more than just Developer License holders, however they will not be sold individually. We will be making some changes to our licensing plans later this month.

+1 for more reasonably priced add-ons. Your freshbooks integration actually attracted me to your product in the first place. My finger is on the buy button, but $199 to get this little bit of added functionality isn't a very good value proposition. If I had multiple sites and had reason to use ALL your add ons, maybe it would be a different story.

In the end, I respect the notion that you must target a specific audience and price point. I do think though that your integrations will be a big draw for small-mid sized sites.
