# Upgrade CTA

Ghost includes a native upgrade call-to-action that appears inside posts when access is restricted. The theme enhances this feature with a custom layout that includes a title, description, button, and account label.

This CTA is displayed automatically based on each post’s access settings and encourages visitors to sign up, log in, or upgrade their membership.

## Supported Access Levels

The Upgrade CTA will appear when using one of the following **post access settings**:

* **Members only** — Only logged-in members can view the full content.
* **Paid-members only** — Available only to members with a paid subscription.
* **Specific tiers** — Access limited to selected paid tiers.

You can also enable **Public preview** for private content, allowing non-members to view a portion of the post before seeing the CTA.

## Customizing Texts

The CTA text (**Title**, **Description**, **Button**, and **Account label**) can be customized using **translation files** in the theme.
