S2Member Free, WordPress, PayPal, where's Visa?

Hello. I'm fairly good technically, but I don't know jack about paypal or S2Member, and my search have been fruitless.

Here it is: I have a WordPress site. It has a Membership option (you're either a member or not, no levels of membership).

Following the video tutorial, I created a PayPal account (freebie). I added the freebie S2Member to WordPress, and connected the two.

Unfortunately, my PayPal button only works for PayPal. It does work for PayPal, but there is no option for VISA, MasterCard, etc.

1. Can the free version o PayPal work with the free version of S2Member and accept VISA, MasterCard and Discover?
2. If YES, then any directions available somewhere on how to do this.

Thanks for any help

Bob

Hi Bob,

Accepting VISA/MasterCard/Discover on your site requires s2Member Pro and PayPal Website Payments Pro.

With the free version of s2Member, you cannot accept credit cards on your site.

However, if you get the PayPal ERP package on your PayPal account, your customers can pay without a PayPal account (i.e., with a credit card). (In this scenario, the entire checkout process still happens on PayPal's website.)

Please see this comparison overview for more information: http://www.primothemes.com/forums/viewt ... =36&t=2634

Raam Dev, thank you for the info. I want to try out my idea before committing too much, so I'll give the PayPal ERP package a try before moving up to S2MemberPro.

Thanks again.
