For bloggers
Your blog, with membership built in.
Point ByUs at your RSS feed, then sync any time you publish and your post shows up on your page too — no copy-pasting, no second place to publish. Every post goes straight to your members’ inboxes, and you can add paid tiers whenever you’re ready.
Keep writing on WordPress, Ghost, Substack, or wherever your blog already lives. ByUs reads the feed — it doesn't replace it.

What you get
Straight to their inbox
Every new post is emailed to your members, so nobody misses a piece. People who follow you for free get a monthly note with the titles of your newest members-only posts and a link to join.
RSS does the work
Add your feed URL once, then sync whenever you publish. Each post imports once — re-syncing never duplicates it.
Membership, optional
Set up paid tiers whenever you want, or leave your page free while you decide. Nothing is forced.
Clear pricing
ByUs shows its platform fee plainly, with standard payment processing covered in it — no surprise cuts.

Bring your readers
Share your page link. Paying subscribers on another platform can use a switching link: $0 until a date you pick, like when their old membership renews.
You own your audience
Your fans are your relationship, not ours. If you ever leave, your list comes with you.
Your member list is yours
Download your members’ names, emails, tiers and join dates from Settings, any time. No asking, no waiting.
Take your work with you
Download your posts as a spreadsheet and export your videos at full quality whenever you like.
Your own web address
Run your page on a domain you own, like yourname.com, so the link fans remember belongs to you.
Your site, your Join button
Paste a ready-made Join button into your own website, so fans can join from wherever they find you.
Writer questions
Which blogs work?
Any blog with an RSS feed, like WordPress, Ghost or Substack. Keep writing where you write now; ByUs reads the feed, it doesn’t replace your blog.
Does it sync on its own?
You tap Sync in Settings after you publish, and new posts come over. Up to 25 come over each time, and a post that’s already on ByUs is never copied twice.
Can imported posts be members-only?
Yes. Imported posts start out public. Edit any of them to make it members-only, or write members-only posts right on ByUs.
Do members get my posts by email?
Yes. Members get an email for up to 2 of your posts a day, for the posts they can see. Post as often as you like. People who follow you for free get a note at most once a month with the titles of your newest members-only posts and a link to join, so your free readers see what they’re missing.
Can readers buy one post without joining?
Yes. Set a price to unlock one members-only post ($5 to $500), or bundle 2 to 50 posts into a series with one price.
What does ByUs cost?
It’s free to start. You keep 87% of each payment to start and up to 91% as your sales grow, with card processing included. The first 50 US creators to reach $250 in a month keep 90% or more for good.
Founding stage
