virtual terminal @ PayPal

[andrewpapageorge]

I understand that we will be able to use a virtual terminal with PAYpal pro but I do not understand HOW.
We are having a workhop next weekend and want to enroll members onsite and have them pay.
Do we have people stand in line and enroll them one by one? Can we hafve them fill out their credit card info on a form and we enroll them all.

I am just not understanding how PayPal Pro Virtual Terminal and S2 work together.

You don't need the virtual terminal to enroll them, do you? And I remember someone mentioning that the virtual terminal doesn't work for subscriptions, just buy now transactions.

You can create a page with a PayPal pro-form for them to enroll themselves. WP Admin -> s2Member -> PayPal Pro-Forms

They'd need to make a line if there's only one computer, but if you have more, or if they bring theirs, they can load the page in each and enroll at the same time.

Does that help?

thank you for your response.
However, I am still confused.

This question is all about OUR entering GROUPS of new members and them not doing it themseles as individauls. Is there a way to do this?

PayPal will not allow us to enter multiple registrations from the same computer. We would need a computer per person in our workshop.
So, other than having each person enroll themselves from their own terminal, how can I get them into Pay Pal and S2?
Specifically,
- If I collect their ccredit card numbers and other vital info on a sheet of paper in our workshop, HOW do I then get that information into PayPal AND S2.
- You mention only BUY NOW, but how does a single purchase IS translate into a recurring payment in S2 or can it?
