No, s2Member Pro-Forms work with PayPal and Authorize.Net only.

I hate to be a pest, one last question. Does this same option work for Google Checkout?

You can use the Pro-Forms with PayPal Standard.

*PayPal® Pro is NOT Absolutely Required* s2Member is very flexible. It is now possible to integrate Pro Forms without a PayPal® Pro account, whereby the enhanced Form Shortcodes that s2Member provides can be integrated ONLY with PayPal® Express Checkout. In other words, if you get declined for PayPal® Pro service, you can still use s2Member Pro Forms. Ask PayPal® to activate Express Checkout for you. ( it's free ). Once Express Checkout is enabled, you will have access to your PayPal® API Credentials. Log into your PayPal® account, and navigate to Profile -> Request API Credentials. You'll choose ( PayPal® API ), and then choose ( Create Your Own ). Now ... here is the tricky part; whenever you generate a Pro Form Shortcode with s2Member, be sure to change accept="paypal,visa,mastercard,amex,discover,maestro,solo" to just accept="paypal"; thereby excluding the on-site credit card processing functionality; which is available only with PayPal® Pro.

It sorta does, but we don't use PayPal Pro or Authorize.net pro, we just use PayPal standard checkout. I mean, we have s2member pro, that's not a problem. I am referring to the payment gateway. Do we need a pro gateway.

It seems like I could make it work with this, just wanted to ask that before I spent too much time on it.

Thanks!

I suppose the easiest way (for them not you) is to have them pay the amount required and then you would have to manually add each person that is allowed.

There may be a better way but this is the first thing I thought of.

One individual to pay for several memberships

2011-06-07T14:50:45-05:00

Hi,

We are using PayPal Standard to process payments for our memberships, we have one member type. Someone has asked if there is a way an organization can pay for several of their staff to be members without having to create a PayPal account and may with credit card. I was thinking about Google Checkout, but you need to login for that too. Is there a way to allow one person to buy memberships for several people? if so how?

Thanks!

Dana
