WPLP Compliance Platform
- Two WordPress plugins: WPLP Cookie Consent and WPLP Legal Pages. Settings live in wp-admin.
- Legal pages publish as normal WordPress pages on your site.
- Consent records save to your site’s WordPress database, and sync to the WPLP web app.
- The web app at app.wplegalpages.com shows every site on your plan from one login.
Termly
- A cloud service. You build policies and the banner in your Termly account.
- The WordPress plugin connects your site to that account with an API key.
- Policies are embedded on your site as HTML, or hosted by Termly and kept up to date (Pro+).
- Visitor data, including consent logs, is stored on Termly’s EU-based servers.
Pricing Side by Side
Both have a free plan for 1 site and a 30-day money-back guarantee. The difference is how sites are counted. WPLP has yearly plans for a set number of sites. Termly sells one license per website, monthly or yearly, and consent logs start at Pro+.

Pros And Cons
WPLP Pros
- Yearly plans for 3, 10, 25, 50, or 100 sites. $168 a year covers 25 sites with consent logs.
- 30+ legal page templates on every paid plan, published as WordPress pages.
- Consent logs on every plan, stored in your own WordPress database.
- Free banner in 50+ languages, with custom design, page rules, and script whitelisting.
- Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track on the free plan.
- Price stays the same while you stay subscribed.
WPLP Cons
- Auto-updated policies aren’t live yet. Termly has them on Pro+.
- Script blocking and cookie sorting are manual.
- WordPress only.
- Yearly billing only.
- No shipping policy, acceptable use policy, or accessibility statement templates.
- Fewer installs than Termly’s WordPress plugin.
Termly Pros
- 10 policy generators, including shipping, acceptable use, and accessibility statement.
- Auto-updated policies and regulation monitoring by a legal team.
- Automatic script blocking and cookie sorting on every plan.
- Covers 28 privacy laws.
- A data request form and cross-subdomain consent on every plan.
- Works on any website, not only WordPress. Support by email, chat, and phone.
Termly Cons
- Priced per domain. Each subdomain counts as a separate domain.
- The plan moves up a tier when the scanner finds more subpages, so the price changes as your site grows.
- Free plan: 1 domain, 50 subpages, 1 language.
- No terms generator. Privacy policies need a separate Usercentrics tool.
- Branding removal and A/B testing are only in Usercentrics Advanced, which is quote-only.
- Consent records live on Cookiebot’s servers, not in your WordPress database.
Our Pick: WPLP
If you run more than one WordPress site, WPLP does both jobs for far less. Your plan covers the cookie banner, consent logs in your own database, and 30+ legal page templates. At 10 sites, that’s $72 a year against $1,800 a year on Termly Pro+.
Termly is the stronger pick for hands-off policy upkeep. Choose it if you run 1 site that isn’t on WordPress, want policies that update when the law changes today, need automatic script blocking, or need a shipping policy or accessibility statement.

FAQs answering objections
Is WPLP free like Termly?
Yes. Both WPLP and Termly offer a free plan for one website. Termly Free includes one basic policy, a cookie banner with automatic blocking, quarterly cookie scans, and up to 10,000 banner views per month. WPLP Free includes 4 legal page templates, exportable consent logs, a data request form, and a cookie banner supporting 50+ languages, with 100 banner page views and 5 cookie scans per month.
Do both create a privacy policy and terms?
Yes. Termly’s free plan covers 1 policy, Starter covers 2, and Pro+ covers all 10 of its generators. WPLP’s free plan covers 4 legal pages, and every paid plan covers 30+.
Which is cheaper?
WPLP, at every site count with consent logs. 1 to 3 sites cost $48 a year on WPLP and $180 to $540 a year on Termly Pro+. At 25 sites, it’s $168 a year against $4,500 a year. Termly figures are list prices before bulk or Agency discounts.
Does Termly update policies when a law changes?
Yes, on Pro+. Termly’s legal team tracks law changes, and hosted policies update on your site. WPLP’s auto-updated policies are coming soon to paid plans. WPLP will draft the change and wait for your approval before it publishes.
Which one blocks scripts automatically?
Termly. Its auto blocker detects known trackers on every plan. WPLP blocks the scripts you assign to a category, and lets you whitelist the ones your site needs.
Do both support IAB TCF v2.3 and Google Consent Mode v2?
Yes. Google Consent Mode v2 is free on both. Termly’s free and Starter plans get the basic mode, and Pro+ gets the advanced mode. IAB TCF v2.3 needs a paid plan on both. On Termly, that’s Pro+.
Where is consent data stored?
WPLP stores consent records in your own WordPress database and syncs them to the WPLP web app. Termly stores visitor data on its EU-based servers. Its consent logs start at Pro+.
Can I switch from Termly to WPLP?
Yes. Install the free WPLP plugins, run a cookie scan, and generate your legal pages in WPLP Legal Pages. Then remove the Termly plugin and any embedded Termly policies. Your Termly consent history doesn’t carry over, which is normal when you change consent tools.
