[SOLVED] Can CB Subs Allow for multiple payees? .. Solutions?

7 years 11 months ago - 7 years 11 months ago #281579 by Pickleball360
CB Subs allows for site subscription payments to site owner via payment gateways.

Can multiple instances of CB Subs be achieved in one site?...(so multiple group owners are paid directly for their subscriptions)

Or let me ask it this way, is there ability to allow GroupJive group owners to allow for their GroupJive members subscription payments to go directly to them...or use mutually exclusive gateways.


So the use case is this.
Bobby Group
1. Bobby pays for and starts GroupJive group Bobby
2. Members join Group Bobby and pay Bobby

Mary Group
1. Mary pays for and starts GroupJive group Mary
2. Members joins Group Mary and pay Mary

If this cannot be achieved with CB Subs and Groupjive, can you suggest a solution to allow for multiple subscription payees within the same website using all the CB tools at our disposal?

Thanks

In order for that to work you'd need to setup a payment gateway for each GJ group owner that links to their PayPal account and a subscription plan per group. These two are then linked together using the Owner ID value. So one gateway and plan would have Owner ID of 1 then the other groups gateway and plan would use 2, etc..

There is no automating this and would require manual setup for each group. Doable, but highly unpractical. Probably easier for them to just link to a PayPal donate button on the About page of the group.

Glad to see that it's doable. I will have 15 large organizations running own memberships.

I Thought about Donate or Pay Now option but it won't track membership renewal.

Exploring the Owner ID value approach.

Where (or how) do I link Owner ID value. ( Link Plan ID 1 with Paypal Gateway ID 2)

When a second Paypal Gateway is created and enabled it obviously presents itself as a second Paypal button on payment page.

How do I prevent this and only show the linked together Plan and Paypal Payment Option.

Thanks for help!

Both in Plan and in Gateway settings there is a "Owner id" field. 0 is default id.

You can assign any id in a plan, then at checkout it will only show the gateways that have the same id.
