WP eStore compatible with PayPal Installment Plans?

[smcrjc]

I’m trying to set up a site where users can purchase a DVD set either with a one-time payment or in two installment payments. In addition to the payment, the customer has to pay shipping.

The one-time payment option works splendidly, including shipping requirement.

However, I’m struggling with the two payment option. I can set a “subscription” button, but there’s no way to include shipping that I can see. The subscription option also precludes use of a coupon code.

I THINK there may be another option with use of the PayPal installment plan with their Enhanced Recurring Payments account, but I’m not sure if this is supported with WP eStore.

Any advice?

Hi, We use the standard PayPal subscription feature in eStore (Paypal offers it for free). You an optionally enable the enhanced recurring billing option in your PayPal account (they will charge you money for this option) which allows your customers to pay for subscriptions via credit card (no PayPal account required). eStore will work with both the above scenarios. However, there is no way to set shipping cost for standard PayPal subscriptions (Paypal doesn’t allow it). I am pretty sure you specify the shipping in your paypal profile with the enhanced recurring billing option. So the shipping kicks in when the customer goes to the PayPal payment page. Maybe ask PayPal to clarify it. You can ask them as to how the shipping works with enhanced recurring billing and they should be able to clarify.

We have an addon that we are creating to offer coupon with eStore’s PayPal subscription feature.
