Feature Details
How does it work?
As the user types, Pay Per Word counts how many words have been entered into the specified Paragraph or Post Body field and calculates (based on the specified price per word) how much the Pay Per Word Product will cost.
Base Price
Enable Base price to set how much the first x number of words should cost. Once enabled, enter both the Base Price and the Base Word Count, which is how many words are included in the Base Price fee.
Word Count Integration
Pay Per Word works seamlessly with Gravity Forms Word Count. Set minimum and maximum required words on your Paragraph or Post Body field, and Pay Per word will charge for those words.
FAQs
Can I charge per character instead of per word?
We have a two-part snippet to change the behavior to pay per character. Paste the PHP part of the snippet in your theme’s functions.php file. Use our Custom Javascript plugin to add the JS part to your form.
