Paywall component for Cursor
Build a paywall screen in Cursor, the right way: what it needs, how Cursor handles it, and a prompt that starts from a real design so the first result already looks shipped.
What a paywall includes
A paywall is the screen that presents subscription plans and converts a free user to paid. The parts that matter:
- a value headline
- a feature list of what unlocking gives
- plan options with prices (monthly, yearly)
- a primary subscribe button
- restore-purchases and terms links
Building it in Cursor
In Cursor, you an AI code editor. It builds and edits the component inside your real codebase, so it is strongest once a project exists and you want to add or refine a screen. The fastest path is not to hand-place every element from scratch, but to give the builder a real paywall design to match. A vague prompt produces a generic screen; a concrete reference produces one you would ship.
That is what VP0 is for: a free library of iOS app designs built for AI builders, where every design has a machine-readable source page your tool can read from a pasted link. Pair it with Cursor and the first generation matches a proven layout.
Prompt to build it
Paste this into your AI builder, with a VP0 paywall design link in place of the placeholder:
