recurring membership charges

Hello,

Is the recurring membership charge handled by s2member or is is handled by the processor? We are looking to use and auth.net emulator to connect to our processor so I need to confirm where this is handled.

Thanks

Dave

Dave,

The recurring charge is handled by the payment processor. s2Member integrates with the payment processer and to process IPN messages about transactions. For example, if the customer cancels their recurring subscription through the payment gateway, then payment gateway sends s2Member an IPN message indicating the user canceled. s2Member then deletes/demotes the users account according to your configuration in Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Authorize.Net® Options -› Automatic EOT Behavior.

s2Member provides cancellation and billing update forms that integrate with the payment gateways, but all actions are handled through the IPN messages that s2Member receives from the payment gateway.

Thanks for the quick response Raam!

We would like to do some testing with authorize.net and our emulator for our gateway. How can we go about getting the Pro Plugin for internal testing?

Hi Dave.

You can get s2Member Pro here: http://www.s2member.com/prices/

Hello Christian,

We aren’t looking to use the pro version for anything more than a test run to see if we can port a customer over to our gateway and still be able to provide the recurring membership functionality. I suspect we may have to look to do a full integration with your product should we want to be able to suggest s2member for customers that are looking for a membership plugin for wordpress. We wouldn’t be looking to buy a copy, but were hoping you had a dev version or SDK we could use for testing etc.

At this point we would like to test with our authorize.net emulator to see if we can find a way to use the existing functionality to bring in customers for both of our product lines.

thanks

Dave

Hi Dave,

We do not currently have a dev version or an SDK available. If you’d like to test a custom integration against s2Member Pro, we ask that you purchase an s2Member Pro license.
