senad Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Hi guys, I'm curious to know how paypal subscriptions (during sign up) and something with yearly pricing plans and addons/configurable options works. Customer Signs up with Yearly Hosting Plan (50/year) with an IP Addon that is $5 extra per month. Clicks on PayPal subscriptions goes to create a subscription and would see only subscription for $50/year during paypal payment). What would happened to the other $5 for the IP? Would that be a separate invoice he would have to pay after paying the initial $50 invoice? How would this work with configurable options? Would it be the same? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe123 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 yes , the client have to login to the client area and subscribe to the $5 as well i guess its the same as when ordering domain and hosting package with paypal subscription because both have different payment terms and both have to be paid separately. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
senad Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 So this is how it works for both addons and configurable options then? If both are monthly then I assume the subscription is summed up? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHMCS CEO Matt Posted August 7, 2007 WHMCS CEO Share Posted August 7, 2007 The user is taken to PayPal twice, once for the first subscription @ $50 year and then the second time for the addon subscription @ $5/month. He doesn't have to login and do it seperately from the client area. Configurable options are different. They are always billed in the cycle of the product. Only addons can have different cycles.

senad Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 So if you have an option of paying yearly/monthly and the configurable option is setup to be $2/mo. If a user chooses $2 it would obviously be added to the billing subscription at $2/mo. However if they choose yearly would it add that (so price of plan yearly + $2x12 months configurable option). Also for addons is there anything in which addons can be created with a drop down menu instead of check boxes to choose certain categories (similar to configurable options). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PPH Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 You could always do a test to see?!? Not like you actually have to finish the transaction. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done it up to that point but you would have to go beyond that point to see if another invoice would be created. What's the point of asking on a client forum about the product if others just shove them aside and tell them to test it themselves . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPH Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 You weren't shoved aside. I merely suggested it was possible to test yourself since no one else responded. Sorry if you thought my reply was shoving you 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct. Also for addons is there anything in which addons can be created with a drop down menu instead of check boxes to choose certain categories (similar to configurable options). No, if you want an addon that has a few options in a dropdown, it has to be a configuable option. Matt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
