How to Set 1, 3 , and 6 Payments

I have a course online that is available in 1 payment, 3 payments, and 6 payments. The trouble is, I do not seem to know how to set this up. I get that S2 Pro can accept non-recurring and recurring payments, and recurring can be set up monthly, but how do I set it so that if a person chooses the 3 payment option, they are only billed for those three payments (one a month) and then the billing STOPS?

Hi Nikolas.

but how do I set it so that if a person chooses the 3 payment option, they are only billed for those three payments (one a month) and then the billing STOPS?

For that you’d use the [hilite mono]rrt[/hilite] attribute in the shortcode. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Buttons -› Shortcode Attributes -> rrt[/hilite]

Would I still do that if I am not using PayPal and am using Authorize.net?

Yes, same attribute. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Authorize.Net® Pro Forms -› Shortcode Attributes -> rrt[/hilite]

rrt=”” Recurring Times (i.e. a fixed number of installments). Only valid w/ Membership Level Access. When unspecified, any recurring charges will remain ongoing until cancelled, or until payments start failing. If this is set to 1 or higher the regular recurring charges will only continue for X billing cycles, depending on what you specify. This is only valid when rr=”1″ for recurring “Subscriptions”. Please note that a fixed number of installments, also means a fixed period of access. If a Customer’s billing is monthly, and you set rrt=”3″, billing will continue for only 3 monthly installments. After that, billing would stop, and their access to the site would be revoked as well (based on your EOT Behavior setting under: s2Member -› Authorize.Net® Options).

Ok. Thank you!
