Hello, New user here also looking into using aMember to password protect a membership website. One reason why I'm using 1shoppingcart is for the recurring billing functionality. If I were to use aMember, would aMember manage the recurring billing or would I still be able to use 1shoppingcart to handle that? I would love to continue using 1shoppingcart to manage all payment processes, etc and simply use aMember to manage member restriction. Is this possible? Your help is MUCH appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Hi, Yes with 1SC plugin recurring billing will be handled by 1SC. Signup process will work this way: 1. User go to /amember/signup.php abd submit form. 2. User will be redirected to 1SC and make payment. 3. User will be redirected back to ammeber and account will be activated. 4. When user will be rebilled at 1SC it will sent IPN notification to aMember and user's subscriptions in ammeber will be updated. 5. When subscription will be cancelled in 1SC, it will sent IPN notification to amember and user's account will be disabled.
Thanks Alex! It's great to know we can get quick responses in the case we have any questions or concerns. Much appreciated!
Hello Alex, With regards to #5, according to 1SC they don't notify aMember. This is the message they, 1SC, display: Your aMember recurring event has been placed on hold. This change will suspend the billing of the affected client, but will not communicate the hold status back to your aMember installation. Is this only if you use on-hold or does DELETE send the IPN notice or is the above message in error?? Jw
Sorry it was my mistake. 1SC does not send anything on cancellation itself. Message will be sent when subscription will end (recurring_eot) and then ammeber will disable payment.
