You can use s2Member Pro with PayPal Standard, just like you said it.

*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.

Only those with a PayPal account can subscribe to your membership though, for recurring payments without requiring a PayPal account you'll at least need PayPal's Enhanced Recurring Payments or PayPal Pro. viewtopic.php?f=36&t=2634

The s2Member Pro license is a one-time payment, correct.

s2member Pro and Paypal

2011-06-01T06:03:39-05:00

Hi!

This might be one of those stupid questions...

If I upgrade to s2Member Pro, do I HAVE TO upgrade to PayPal Pro as well?
Or is it just that I won't be able to use the feature "paying with credit cards"?

And that $129 fee, is that really a one-time-fee, or did I misunderstand?

Thanks!
