About

PayPress began as a personal project with a simple goal: make accepting Stripe payments in WordPress easier.

After years of building WordPress websites, I found myself repeatedly solving the same problems when integrating Stripe into client and personal projects. Existing solutions were often more complicated than they needed to be, especially for users who simply wanted to start accepting payments without spending hours configuring their site.

That led to the creation of PayPress.

Today, PayPress is an actively developed project focused on providing a modern, reliable Stripe integration for WordPress. While the software is already functional, it remains in Private Beta as new features are added, refined, and tested with the help of early users.

The goal isn’t just to build another payment plugin. It’s to build one that is intuitive, dependable, and enjoyable to use.

Built in Public

Development of PayPress is shared openly through the Manzari Tech YouTube channel, where I publish tutorials, development updates, and walkthroughs as the project continues to evolve.

Community feedback plays an important role in shaping PayPress, and many improvements come directly from conversations with beta testers and the WordPress community.

Private Beta

PayPress is currently available through a Private Beta program.

During this stage, features may continue to evolve as feedback is received, bugs are addressed, and new functionality is introduced. If you encounter a bug, have a suggestion, or would like to share your experience, please submit feedback using our Beta Feedback Form. Every report helps improve PayPress before its public release.

Looking Ahead

PayPress is still growing, and there is much more planned.

The focus remains on building a high-quality WordPress payment solution that balances simplicity with powerful functionality, while continuing to improve the overall experience based on community feedback.
