Mollie for Houzez is here. One plugin, made for one theme, that lets your members pay the way they actually want to. No WooCommerce, no second checkout, no developer on speed dial.
Let us start with the moment that probably brought you here. A visitor is on your Houzez site, ready to buy a membership or pay for a listing. They get to the checkout, and the payment method they trust is not there. So they hesitate. And a fair number of them never come back.
If you sell to people in the Netherlands, Belgium or almost anywhere in Europe, you know exactly how that feels. Houzez is a wonderful theme, but out of the box it gives you Stripe and PayPal, and that is simply not how a lot of Europe pays. Your Dutch visitor wants iDEAL. Your Belgian visitor reaches for Bancontact.
And until now, closing that gap meant a surprising amount of work. We built Mollie for Houzez to make that work disappear. Today we are proud to release version 2.0, the first public version, and we would love to walk you through what it does.
The honest version of the old problem
Here is what the usual solution looked like. To add Mollie to a Houzez membership site, you were told to install WooCommerce, then add a subscriptions extension, then a memberships extension, then a Mollie connector, and then, more often than not, pay a developer to make the whole thing talk to the Houzez package system.
That is a full webshop platform bolted underneath a property site. A stack of plugins to keep updated. A second checkout your buyer has to click through. All of that, just to accept a payment.
Mollie for Houzez replaces that entire pile with a single plugin. It uses the Houzez checkout you already have, and it does one job. Because it only does one job, it does it properly.
Payment methods your visitors already trust
This is the heart of it. Mollie for Houzez gives you access to 30 Mollie payment methods, and you decide which ones show up at your checkout. Your visitor only ever sees what makes sense for them, in their own language.
You get iDEAL for the Netherlands and Bancontact, KBC/CBC and Belfius for Belgium. Credit and debit cards, of course, plus Apple Pay, Google Pay and PayPal. SEPA Direct Debit and bank transfers.
And a long list of the local methods that quietly win the sale in their own country: Przelewy24 and BLIK in Poland, TWINT in Switzerland, EPS in Austria, Cartes Bancaires in France, Satispay, BANCOMAT Pay, MyBank and PostePay in Italy, Bizum, MB WAY and Multibanco in Spain and Portugal, and Vipps, MobilePay and Swish across the Nordics. Gift cards, vouchers and paysafecard round it out.
The point is not the length of the list. The point is that the one method your visitor is looking for is finally there.
It charges for everything you sell on Houzez
Being built for one theme is what makes this feel effortless. Mollie for Houzez does not just take a payment and leave you to sort out the rest. It plugs straight into the ways Houzez actually earns money.
- Membership packages, one-time or recurring, exactly as you have set them up.
- Individual property submissions, for the agents who pay per listing.
- Featured and upgraded listings, the little extras that lift a property to the top.
Recurring memberships renew all by themselves through Mollie, by automatic direct debit. And your members can cancel their own subscription from their Houzez dashboard, keeping access until the end of the period they paid for. That means steadier income for you, and a much quieter inbox.
Everything in one place, without the weight
We kept the whole thing inside one plugin on purpose. Your site stays a property site. It does not quietly turn into a shop with an e-commerce engine humming away in the background.
Inside, you will find:
- A transactions dashboard to search, filter and manage every payment at a glance.
- Refunds from your own WordPress admin, full or partial, one at a time or in bulk, with no need to log in to Mollie.
- Chargeback tracking, so a disputed payment never quietly slips past you.
- An analytics dashboard that shows revenue over time, one-time against recurring income, active subscribers, and which methods and packages are doing the work.
- More than twenty automatic emails, from receipts with an invoice link to renewal notices and expiry reminders, sent from your own name.
- Payment links with a QR code and an invoice, so you can get paid for anything that happens away from the website.
- An admin in six languages: English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish and Italian.
- EU consumer compliance built in, including an optional right-of-withdrawal checkbox at checkout and a matching confirmation email.
No webshop underneath. No connector. No developer to wire it all together.
The part you never see, which is the part that matters most
A payment plugin lives or dies on the things a user never notices. Is it safe? Does every single payment arrive correctly, once, and get turned into the right membership? That invisible layer is where we spent the most care, because it is where trust is either earned or lost.
Security you can explain to a client
- Your Mollie keys are stored with AES-256-GCM encryption and shown only masked, never as plain text.
- The webhook that Mollie calls is protected with a unique secret token.
- Every payment status is verified directly with Mollie, never simply trusted because a browser said so.
- Card details never touch your website, because the payment happens on Mollie’s own hosted checkout.
Reliability that holds up in the real world
- A real-time webhook, backed by an hourly safety net that reconciles anything left unfinished, so no payment falls through the cracks.
- Careful guards around the delicate moments, creating a subscription and issuing a refund, so a double click or a network hiccup can never turn into a double charge or a double payout.
- Update-safe by design. Your settings and your data are never wiped by an update.
None of that is glamorous. All of it is the reason you can go to bed without wondering whether tonight’s payments arrived.
Live in minutes, honestly
For all the engineering underneath, getting started is genuinely quick. Install the plugin the normal way. Paste your Mollie API keys. Choose the methods you want to show. Run a payment safely in test mode, and when you are happy, flip one switch to go live.
A Quick Start Wizard walks you through the Houzez settings people usually trip over, and there is a built-in guide for Apple Pay and Google Pay. No code. No theme edits. No support ticket disappearing into the void.
We stick around
Software is never really finished. WordPress moves, PHP moves, Houzez updates, and Mollie changes things. Keeping up with all of that is the real, ongoing job, and it is exactly what your licence pays for.
Your licence covers every update and our support for as long as it is active. And if life gets busy and a renewal slips by, nothing breaks on you. A 31-day grace period begins, with a friendly countdown in your admin, and everything keeps working. After that the settings lock, but your data stays exactly where it is and comes straight back the moment you renew. Nothing is ever deleted behind your back.
This is version 2.0, and it is the first version we felt was truly ready to carry our name. Tested end to end, hardened, and built to be looked after. We think you are going to like it.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need WooCommerce for this?
No, and that is rather the whole point. Mollie for Houzez connects Houzez to Mollie directly, through the theme’s own checkout. There is no WooCommerce, no subscriptions extension, no memberships extension and no separate connector to install.
Which payment methods does it support?
Thirty Mollie payment methods, including iDEAL, Bancontact, credit and debit cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, SEPA Direct Debit, Przelewy24, BLIK, TWINT, EPS, Cartes Bancaires and many local European options. You choose which ones appear, and availability depends on your Mollie account and the customer’s country.
Can I sell recurring memberships?
Yes. Membership packages can renew automatically through Mollie by direct debit, and your members can cancel their own subscription from the Houzez dashboard, keeping access until the end of the paid period.
What exactly can I charge for?
Membership packages (one-time or recurring), individual property submissions, and featured or upgraded listings. It all runs through the standard Houzez checkout.
