I currently have a site running a membership plugin with ARB tie-in. I am not happy with the system and want to switch. My main dilemma is that I need the new system to tie seamlessly with the current Authorize.net ARB members so that we don’t “lose” any ARB. I saw that we can import the members from the old system to the new, but didn’t see anything about how that would work with the ARB.

Does this system have a way to recognize the existing ARB members so we can just import the existing data?

Or, would it require re-submissions from all new members?

Unfortunately this is correct unless you have a developer change a few things. s2Member expects a custom attribute value of your site’s URL. If your previous software did not do this, then it will not be possible to move subscriptions over to s2Member without hacking into the POST array that Authorize.Net sends the data in, and changing the custom attribute that way. Additionally, your old software may overwrite your silent post URL, and you’ll need to take that into account, and perhaps redirect to the correct URL when you receive POST data to your old URL.

So, the short answer is that you could preform this integration, but it will take some custom code to keep everything seamless. It would be far easier to just stop the current ARB subscriptions, and have Users sign up again through s2Member. Whether you want to do that or not is up to you and your developer, though.
