Recurring payments and affiliate commissions
Can I take recurring paymenst (eg monthly)? If so is it possible to set up a trial ( free and paid for)? If possible to both the above – is it possible to pay affiliates different amounts on trial from general product? E.g Trial is $197 for 90 days (pay it all to affiliate) then $97 per month with $30 per montth to affiliate?
Hello Andy,
thanks for contacting us!
Let me answer your questions one by one.
1. Recurring payments.
Yes, you can setup a “subscription” product/service which is exactly what you need (recurring charges on your set schedule). Once you are setting up a “subscription” product, you need to write:
1) the initial price (it can’t be zero due to PayPal or Authorize.net limitations) and duration of the first period. E.g.: $5 for 30 days.
2) the size of recurring charges and duration of recurring billing. E.g.: $50 every 3 months.
2. Trial subscription.
As I already said before, currently it is not possible to make the initial price to be zero, so trial subscription is not available in this form you’d like to have. Such thing is in our “to-do” list, but right now you will need just to ask your customers to order the subscription after the trial period.
3. Affiliate commissions.
The size of affiliate commissions proportional to commission percentage. So if you setup affiliate commissions size to be 50%, then you will pay half of your income to your affiliate. In your case, you would need to pay $98.5 for the initial payment, and then $48.5 every month.
I hope I answered your questions clearly enough. Please let me know if you have more questions or need further explanations!
