Unlock Protocol Recurring Subscriptions

Launch recurring subscriptions using NFTs

Unlock Protocol Recurring Subscriptions launched on May 19, 2022 with 155 votes, #158 of 2,942 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 4 years on.

What it does

Unlock has created the first-ever mechanism for recurring subscriptions using membership NFTs. This upgrade to Unlock Protocol paves the way to replace legacy subscription systems that use centralized payments with a decentralized Web3 model.

Unlock is a protocol which enables creators to monetize their content with a few lines of code in a fully decentralized way.

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